Setting up your LCD Touch Screen

Powering your LCD Touch Screen
You have three ways that you can power your display:
- Seperate uUSB power supply (at least 500 mA)
- Connecting a Pi power supply (8226373) to the 'PWR IN' connector on the display and attaching a uUSB connector from the 'PWR OUT' connector to the Raspberry Pi.
- GPIO jumpers
