Chapter 1: Introduction

Product Description

Your new touchmonitor combines the reliable performance of Elo Touch Solutions touch

products with the latest developments in touch technology and display design. This combination

of features creates a natural flow of information between the user and the touchmonitor.

This touchmonitor incorporates a 16.2M color, active matrix thin-film-transistor LCD panel to

provide high quality display performance. Its LED backlight significantly reduces power

consumption and eliminates mercury (compared to CCFL-backlit panels). Other features that

Chapter 3: Mounting

Rear VESA Mount

For the 15 inch touchmonitor, a four-hole 75x75mm mounting pattern for M4 screws is provided on

the rear of the monitor. Remove the stand using a Phillips screwdriver to access this mounting

interface. The VESA FDMI-compliant counting is coded: VESA MIS-B, 75, C.

For the 17 inch touchmonitor, a four-hole 75x75mm mounting pattern for M4 screws is provided

on the rear of the monitor. Remove the stand using a Phillips screwdriver to access this

mounting interface. The VESA FDMI-compliant counting is coded: VESA MIS-B, 75, C.

Base Mount

For the 15 inch touchmonitor, a threaded three-hole mounting pattern for M4 screws is provided

on the bottom of stand base for mounting or securing. An additional two-hole pattern is available

under small caps on the top of the base. See page 15 for instructions on how to access holes.

For the 17 inch touchmonitor, a threaded three-hole mounting pattern for M4 screws is provided

on the bottom of stand base for mounting or securing. An additional two-hole pattern is available

under small caps on the top of the base. See page 15 for instructions on how to access holes.

flat surface using M4 flathead screws. To utilize these mounting holes, unsnap the access

covers from the outside, install the screws into the holes and then snap the cover back into

place.

Chapter 4: Operation

Power

To turn the touchmonitor on or off, press the touchmonitor power button once.

The Power Status LED on the bottom of the touchmonitor functions according to the following

table:

Touchmonitor status

LED status

OFF

SLEEP

PULSING

The system consumes low power when in SLEEP and OFF modes. For detailed power

consumption specifications, refer to the technical specifications available on the Elo website

www.elotouch.com.

Touching the screen will bring the attached host PC out of SLEEP mode (similar to moving the

mouse or pressing a keyboard key).

To improve reliability and reduce wasteful power consumption, disconnect the power adapter

when long periods of disuse are planned.

Touch

Your touchmonitor is factory-calibrated and should not need manual calibration (unless the

input video is not fully scaled to the native resolution, or the touch experience needs to be

calibrated to a specific user).
