Monitor
If a CRT adapter is installed, you can connect a monitor to the system via
the 15-pin D-sub jack on the CRT adapter. The power supply of the monitor
is done by a separate power cord.
An LCD screen can be connected alternatively if a TFT adapter is installed.
TFT - LCD display
If a TFT adapter is installed you can connect a SNIkeyTFT A, BA72A or
BA73A to the BEETLE /XS. Connect the 50-pin data cable of the LCD to the
system. The signals for the touch screen function and the power supply are
also transmitted via this cable. To implement the touch screen functionality
for the COM interface you have to change some system settings ( see
manual “BEETLE POS Motherboard”, chapter “Technical data”).
If the display is equipped with a keyboard cable connect this with the KYBD
terminal. You can only connect one keyboard cable to the BEETLE /XS at a
time - either that of the LCD or that of the freestanding keyboard (e.g. PC
keyboard, TA57, TA61)
For connecting a second keyboard please refer to the user guide of the
display.
Dual screen
All kind of flat screen or CRT monitor can be connected to a second PCI
CRT Controller (Dual Screen). The other monitor works independently,
supported by the operating system, for example Windows 98, Windows
2000, Windows XP and Linux.
