Example 1 is the most basic example program which can run without
relying on any library. The result of example 1 is that the whole screen is
filled with red, green, blue, white and black in turn and then filled
randomly. If this example works fine, the hardware of 2.8 inches touch
screen is fine.

This is the most basic example program which can run without
relying on any library. The result of example 1 is that the whole screen is
filled with red, green, blue, white and black in turn and then filled
randomly. If this example works fine, the hardware of 2.8 inches touch
screen is fine.

by

referring

to

the

steps

in

3.3.1.

Example05-ShowBMP and SDCard Exten Example can not work on MEGA2560,
because SPI IO of MEGA2560 is different from that of UNO. So example need to
read the SD card can not work on MEGA 2560.
The result of the examples are the same as that on UNO.
