This project is an open-source alternative software, NOT the USBMonitor.exe / ExtendScreen.exe or any original software for the smart screens (even if some themes have been reused). Please do not open issues for USBMonitor.exe/ExtendScreen.exe here, instead you can use:

A Python system monitor program and a library for 3.5″ & 5″ IPS USB-C (UART) displays.

Supported operating systems : macOS, Windows, Linux (incl. Raspberry Pi), basically all OS that support Python 3.8+

Supported smart screens models:

Turing Smart Screen 3.5″	XuanFang 3.5″	Turing Smart Screen 5″
also improperly called «revision A» by the resellers	revision B & flagship (with backplate & RGB LEDs)	basic support (no video or storage for now)

Please note the Turing and the XuanFang screens are different products designed and produced by different companies, despite having a similar appearance. The communication protocol is also different.
This project support products from both manufacturers, including backplate RGB LEDs for available models!

If you haven’t received your screen yet but want to start developing your theme now, you can use the «simulated LCD» mode!

Not supported yet or not tested smart screen models:

Turing Smart Screen 8.8″	Turing Smart Screen 2.1″	(Fuldho?) 3.5″ IPS Screen
Not tested, may use the same protocol as 5″	Not tested, may use the same protocol as 5″	Not supported, managed with proprietary Windows software SmartMonitor.exe

SmartCool Lcd / GeekTeches AD35 / AIDA64 / AX206	(Unknown manufacturer) UsbPCMonitor 3.5″ / 5″
Not supported. Produced by multiple manufacturers, all use the same Appotech AX206 hacked photo frame firmware. Supported by AIDA64 and lcd4linux	Not tested. Visually identical to Turing 3.5″ / 5″ but managed by proprietary Windows software UsbPCMonitor.exe

There are 2 possible uses of this project Python code:

• as a System Monitor, a standalone program working with themes to display your computer HW info. Check if your hardware is supported.
• integrated in your project, to control the display from your own Python code.

This project is mainly a complete standalone program to use your screen as a system monitor, like the original vendor app.
Some themes are already included for a quick start!

• Fully functional multi-OS code base (operates out of the box, tested on Windows, Linux & MacOS).
• Display configuration using GUI configuration wizard or config.yaml file: no Python code to edit.
• Support for 3.5″ & 5″ smart screen models (Turing and XuanFang). Backplate RGB LEDs are also supported for available models!
• Support multiple hardware sensors and metrics (CPU/GPU usage, temperatures, memory, disks, etc) with configurable refresh intervals.
• Allow creation of themes (see res/themes ) with theme.yaml files using theme editor to be shared with the community!
• Easy to expand: additional code that pulls specific information can be written in a modular way without impacting existing code.
• Auto detect comm port. No longer need to hard set it, or if it changes on you then the config is wrong.
• Tray icon with Exit option, useful when the program is running in background

Control the display from your Python projects

If you don’t want to use your screen for system monitoring, you can just use this project as a module to do some simple operations on the display from any Python code :

• Display custom picture
• Display text
• Display progress bar
• Screen rotation
• Clear the screen (blank)
• Turn the screen on/off
• Display soft reset
• Set brightness
• Set backplate RGB LEDs color (on supported hardware rev.)

Check simple-program.py as an example.

If you have trouble running the program as described in the wiki, please check open/closed issues & the wiki Troubleshooting page

Turing Smart Screen Python library

This is an implementation of access to the Turing Smart Screen as a Python library. It is a complete reimplementation from scratch using none of the code from the original library at https://github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python but under MIT license. Some of the methods are similar, because there’s only so many ways you can control these screens, and it’s useful to be compatible.

The library is Python 2/3 compatible, as this is required for the project it is to be integrated with.

The interface is through object construction and method operations, to allow it to be multiply instantiated and to allow us to inherit behaviour for each of the implementations.

from PIL import Image import serial ser = serial(DEVICE, 115200, timeout=1, rtscts=1) display = TuringDisplayAutoSelect(ser) # Hide everything display.enable(False) # If the display is rotated around 180 degrees, it image may been inversion display.invert(display.INVERT_XY) # Draw a picture in the display image = Image.open(bitmap_path) display.update_region_pillow(0, 0, image) # And show it in one go display.enable(True) 

This library is released under the MIT license. The original was under the restrictive GPL, which precludes my incorporating it into my projects, so I have re-implemented the functions and made the system more object oriented.

Release 3.0.0 — Turing 5″ display support!

This release comes with Turing 5″ displays support!
Many thanks to @alexwbaule @arthurferrai @MrFr1day and everyone that contributed in issues #81 and #90
Please note there is only basic support for now: no video or storage.

Documentation, Theme Editor, Configuration Wizard and Github workflows have been updated to handle 5″ devices as well.
This release comes without any breaking changes for 3.5″ devices.

Configuration Wizard

In the configuration Wizard, you can now select Turing 5″ as your smart screen model.

Themes

Because the display resolution is different for 3.5″ displays (320×480) and 5″ displays (800×480), themes made previously for 3.5″ displays cannot be used on 5″ displays.
New 5″ themes have been developed and packaged in this release:

When you select Turing 5″ in the Configuration Wizard, the theme list is automatically updated to display only compatible themes.

theme.yaml

To create a theme for 5″ devices, the format is the same as the 3.5″ themes. You can do it manually or using the Theme Editor.
The only property to add to your theme.yaml is:

If this property is not in the theme file (to keep compatibility with old/community themes) or if its value is different than 5″ then the theme will be for 3.5 displays.

Release 2.4.0 — config. wizard

What’s Changed

Configuration wizard

This release introduces the first version of the Configuration Wizard (#176) in configure.py
It offers an easy way to update the config.yaml file, as well as various checks and constraints on values (theme names, COM ports. ) to avoid errors. The selected theme is also displayed as a preview.

This GUI is similar to what is offered by the original Windows program from screen manufacturers, and will offer a serious alternative for beginners wanting to use this program instead!
The wizard also offers a quick way to edit a selected theme from the Theme Editor, and to start the system monitor main program.
Related documentation has been updated.

Other changes

• Auto-commit theme previews on master/release push by @mathoudebine in #173
• text alignment by @cobacdavid in #172
• Allow custom date/time formatting from babel module by @mathoudebine in #174

 DAY: # Format (Y/M/D ordering, month/day translations. ) will match your computer locale TEXT: FORMAT: medium # short (2/20/23) / medium (Feb 20, 2023) / long (February 20, 2023) / full (Monday, February 20, 2023) HOUR: # Format (12/24h, timezone translations) will match your computer locale TEXT: FORMAT: short # short (6:48 PM) / medium (6:48:53 PM) / long (6:48:53 PM UTC) / full (6:48:53 PM Coordinated Universal Time)
