***** NOTE *****
the nextion screens that are used with the mpscilink device are typically updated by downloading the software first to the mpscandroid device, then downloading that to the mpscilink device, and THEN updating the nextion device. i am providing the following links to allow the user to directly download the appropriate nextion screen layout file which then can be copied to an sd card directly and then inserted into the nextion sd card slot to do the update. this is MUCH faster/simpler/error free. Just make sure you download the correct file. Also, the file needs to be in the root directory of the sd card as well as only 1 tft file can be on the card. Lastly, I STRONGLY recommend users purchase <=16Gig SanDisk cards. The sd card MUST be formatted as FAT32. The SanDisk cards should work out of the box. When your nextion display needs an update a message will be displayed on the main page in red.
Select the correct display size from the following link:
Nextion Display Files
MpSciLnk35.tft - for 3.5 inch display
MPSciLnk50.tft - for 5 inch display
MPSciLnk70.tft - for 7 inch display
