It has a swappable solder iron head. The solder iron
head I have looks like a screwdriver. It is about
3mm wide. I have bought another solder iron
head. Shaped like a pencil.

I understand now. A controller is required. For i2c or usb.

I think the plan is to use the display the computer came
with. I would want to know which display model it is
I have. I have refrained from dismantling the
display part because it was already difficult to
remove the mainboard. The cabinet got some nicks.

Can you write a link?

Yes, that should have been the email's subject but we are not starting
a new post because of that.
