Elo Touchscreen Interface Options
The touchscreen interface controls the
transfer of touch data from the computer to the touchscreen and vice
versa, and is in addition to the standard monitor video and power
cables.
- Serial Interface: A general-purpose interface,
where one cable connects the touchscreen to an available COM port.
All modern Elo serial monitors have internal controllers (inside the
monitor), with a female DB9 (9 pin D-shaped) touch output connector.
The connection to the male-pinned COM port is made by a standard
straight-through male-to-female DB9 cable.
- USB Interface: Short for Universal Serial Bus,
an interface that supports Plug-and-Play installation and hot
plugging. One cable connects the touchscreen to an available USB
port.
- Dual Serial/USB (Combo) Interface: Provides
both serial and USB interfaces-one or the other should be used, not
both.
- PC-Bus Interface (Obsolete): An expansion card
that is installed inside the computer in an ISA bus slot. Elo
monitors intended for use with PC-Bus controllers have a male DB9 (9
pin D-shaped) touch output connector. The connection to the
female-pinned bus controller card is made by a standard
male-to-female DB9 cable.
