Touchmonitor Configurations
This chapter assumes you have one of the following:
• A touchmonitor with an internal 2210 serial controller.
• A touchmonitor with an internal 3000U USB controller.
• A touchmonitor with one of the following external controllers:
•
2210MX serial controller.
•
2201 PC-Bus controller.
Touchmonitors with an internal serial controller typically have a DB9 female
RS-232 connector on the back of the touchmonitor. A serial cable connects
directly from the back of the touchmonitor to the serial port on the computer.
Touchmonitors with an internal USB controller will have a USB cable exiting
the back of the touchmonitor. The USB cable connects directly to a USB port on
the computer.
The 2210MX serial controller is typically mounted on the back of the display
and uses either a keyboard power tap or external power supply. The serial cable
attached to the controller enclosure connects to the serial port on your computer.
PC-Bus controllers plug directly into a slot in your computer and do not require
a special enclosure or power supply. A cable connects directly from the back of
the touchmonitor to the PC-Bus controller.
Controller boards, cables, and power supplies may also be ordered separately.
Touchmonitor Connections
Connecting the Power and Video
If you do not have a touchscreen installed in your display, skip to Chapter 4,
which details the installation of touchscreen and controller components.
The video display function of the touchmonitor and the touchscreen installed on
the monitor are entirely separate systems. You should first connect and test your
touchmonitor as a video display only. Follow the instructions provided by the
monitor manufacturer.
