Might be easier to use a USB Frame grabber. You wan't be able to use GPU Firmware anyhow as this is closed source.

Re: 1024x600 display image distorted (display configuration)

The display data sheet should have the timing information, that's where you need to look for. Display TCON data is not needed

Which display are you using?

Re: 2.4" Displays for Raspberry Pi Zero

My preference would be the Displaytech display as it offers 18-bit RGB interface, so you can directly connect it to DPI interface of your RPI. Sure, you will need to design an adapter board. Showing the desktop will be a pain in the but; it's nearly impossible to use on 480x272 (4.3in module), so ev...

The S7-1500 should have a RS232 interface or Ethernet Module connected. This will allow you to communicate with the PLC.
