OPERATION  
About Touchmonitor Adjustments  
Your touchmonitor will unlikely require adjustment. Variations in video output and application may re-  
quire adjustments to your touchmonitor to optimize the quality of the display.  
For best performance, your touchmonitor should be operating in native resolution, that is 1280 x 1024  
at 80k-75 Hz. Use the Display control panel in Windows to choose 1280 x 1024 resolution.  
Operating in other resolutions will degrade video performance. For further information, please refer to  
AppendixA.  
All adjustments you make to the controls are automatically memorized. This feature saves you from  
having to reset your choices every time you unplug or power your touchmonitor off and on. If there is a  
power failure your touchmonitor settings will not default to the factory specifications.  
Using the On-Screen Display (OSD) Menus  
All adjustments are made by using the on-screen display (OSD) menus.All menu items can be selected

NATIVE RESOLUTION  
The native resolution of a monitor is the resolution level at which the LCDpanel is designed to perform  
best. For the Elo LCD touchmonitor, the native resolution is 1280 x 1024 for the SXGA-17 inch size.  
In almost all cases, screen images look best when viewed at their native resolution. You can lower the  
resolution setting of a monitor but not increase it.

Displays inNative Resolution  
The native resolution of an LCDis the actual number of pixels horizontally in the LCDby the number of  
pixels vertically in the LCD. LCD resolution is usually represented by the following symbols:  
VGA  
640 x 480  
SVGA  
XGA

1024 x 768  
1280 x 1024

SXGA  
UXGA  
A-25  
As an example, a SVGAresolution LCDpanel has 800 pixels horizontally by 600 pixels vertically. Input  
video is also represented by the same terms. XGAinput video has a format of 1024 pixels horizontally  
by 768 pixels vertically. When the input pixels contained in the video input format match the native  
resolution of the panel, there is a one to one correspondence of mapping of input video pixels to LCD  
pixels.As an example, the pixel in column 45 and row 26 of the input video is in column 45 and row 26  
of the LCD. For the case when the input video is at a lower resolution than the native resolution of the  
LCD, the direct correspondence between the video pixels and the LCDpixels is lost. The LCDcontrol-  
ler can compute the correspondence between video pixels and LCDpixels using algorithms contained  
on its controller. The accuracy of the algorithms determines the fidelity of conversion of video pixels  
to LCD pixels. Poor fidelity conversion can result in artifacts in the LCD displayed image such as  
varying width characters.

REGULATORY INFORMATION  
I. Electrical Safety Information:  
A) Compliance is required with respect to the voltage, frequency, and current requirements  
indicated on the manufacturer¡¦s label. Connection to a different power source than those  
specified herein will likely result in improper operation, damage to the equipment or pose a fire  
hazard if the limitations are not followed.  
B) There are no operator serviceable parts inside this equipment. There are hazardous voltages  
generated by this equipment which constitute a safety hazard. Service should be provided only by  
a qualified service technician.  
C) This equipment is provided with a detachable power cord which has an integral safety ground  
wire intended for connection to a grounded safety outlet.  
1)Do not substitute the cord with other than the provided approved type. Under no circum  
stances use an adapter plug to connect to a 2-wire outlet as this will defeat the continuity of  
the grounding wire.  
2) The equipment requires the use of the ground wire as a part of the safety certification,  
modification or misuse can provide a shock hazard that can result in serious injury or death.  
3) Contact a qualified electrician or the manufacturer if there are questions about the  
installation prior to connecting the equipment to mains power.  
II. Emissions and Immunity Information

with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are  
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.  
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and  
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio  
communications.  
B)Notice to Users in Canada: This equipment complies with the Class B limits for radio noise  
emissions from digital apparatus as established by the Radio Interference Regulations of  
Industrie Canada.  
C)Notice to Users in the European Union: Use only the provided power cords and  
interconnecting cabling provided with the equipment. Substitution of provided cords and cabling  
may compromise electrical safety or CE Mark Certification for emissions or immunity as re  
quired by the following standards:  
36  
This Information Technology Equipment (ITE) is required to have a CE Mark on the  
manufacturer’s label which means that the equipment has been tested to the following  
Directives and Standards:  
This equipment has been tested to the requirements for the CE Mark as required by EMC  
Directive 89/336/EEC indicated in European Standard EN 55 022 Class B and the Low  
VoltageDirective 73/23/EEC as indicated in European Standard EN 60 950.  
D)General Information to all Users: This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio  
frequency energy. If not installed and used according to this manual the equipment may cause  
interference with radio and television communications. There is, however, no guarantee that  
interference will not occur in any particular installation due to site-specific factors.  
1) In order to meet emission and immunity requirements, the user must observe the  
following:  
a) Use only the provided I/O cables to connect this digital device with any  
computer.  
b) To ensure compliance, use only the provided manufacturer’s approved line  
cord.  
c) The user is cautioned that changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly  
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to  
operate the equipment.  
2) If this equipment appears to cause interference with radio or television reception, or any  
other device:  
a) Verify as an emission source by turning the equipment off and on.  
b) If you determine that this equipment is causing the interference, try to correct the  
interference by using one or more of the following measures:  
i) Move the digital device away from the affected receiver.  
ii) Reposition (turn) the digital device with respect to the affected receiver.  
iii) Reorient the affected receiver¡¦s antenna.  
iv) Plug the digital device into a differentAC outlet so the digital device and  
the receiver are on different branch circuits.  
v)Disconnect and remove any I/O cables that the digital device does not use.  
(Unterminated I/O cables are a potential source of high RF emission levels.)  
vi) Plug the digital device into only a grounded outlet receptacle. Do not use  
AC adapter plugs. (Removing or cutting the line cord ground may increase RF  
emission levels and may also present a lethal shock hazard to the user.)  
If you need additional help, consult your dealer, manufacturer, or an experienced radio or television  
technician.
