INTRODUCTION
About the Product
The Elo TouchSystems 1900L touchmonitor senses touch on the
display in a completely new way, by recognizing the unique pattern of
sounds. Consisting only of a glass overlay mounted in front of the LCD
panel, Elo’s 1900L zero-bezel Acoustic Pulse Recognition (APR)
delivers benefits that combine the ultimate in optical qualities with a
stylish, easy to clean, seamless front face.
Wide-aspect displays like the Elo 1900L are easier to use and incorpo-
rate into the workplace than traditional desktop touchmonitors. Wide-
screen format displays allow extra content on screen and are ideal in
corporate environments for spreadsheets, publishing, and dual-
window applications.
The 1900Lis available in both zero-bezelAPR and IntelliTouch Surface
Acoustic Wave touch technologies.
Typical applications for the 1900L include: point-of-sale (POS), point-
of-service, digital signage, loyalty systems, kiosk information systems,
light industrial shop-floor automation and home control.
•Wide-screen format provides more application space
•Sleek, integrated design offers a stylish look for public venues
•AC and DC power for maximum input flexibility
•User-lockable on-screen display – designed for public access

OPERATION
About Touchmonitor Adjustments
Your touchmonitor probably does not require adjustment. However,
variations in video output and application may require adjustments to
your touchmonitor to optimize the quality of the display.
For best performance, your video source should be at 1440 X 900
resolution, at 56–76 Hz refresh rate. Operating in other resolutions
degrades video performance.
For input video outside the refresh rate and dot clock ranges, the
monitor does not automatically adjust, but displays an “Out of Range”
(OOR) message and the On-screen Display (OSD) menu, which
ordinarily allows you to change monitor settings, is then disabled.
Note: Do not operate the touchmonitor if you see the OOR mes-
sage, or LCD damage may result. If you see the OOR message, set
the video mode to one within the allowable range.
