Touchscreen controller is smaller and more frugal
Elo TouchSystems has developed a new, smaller, lower-power controller chip for its popular, proven AccuTouch five-wire resistive touch technology.
"Both are currently available with Elo's infra-red, surface wave and resistive touch technologies, so it was the next logical step to enhance them with our new surface capacitive touchscreens, an excellent general purpose technology".
According to Sigona, surface capacitive touch technology is environmentally resilient and offers superior sensitivity, including exceptional drag characteristics, with a fast, accurate touch response.
"A transparent protective coating makes the overlay resistant to scratches and abrasions and also increases durability", he adds.
In addition, touch performance is unaffected by everyday abuse and mishaps such as dirt, dust, condensation, liquid spills, contaminants or cleaning solutions.
"The Entuitive 1525L 15in LCD desktop touchmonitor was designed from a blank sheet of paper to address the key needs of touch applications", says Sigona, "resulting in a product that can truly be called designed for touch".
"It has a unique combination of flexibility, reliability, performance, ease of use and installation, all with a distinctive visual appeal".
Elo's 1525L includes a stable tilt base that is also removable or reversible for wall mounting, plus a Vesa mounting option.
It features discrete cable handling so that the cables are all hidden from the user's view and controls that are placed on the side rather than the front with lockout function for public use.
The 1525L includes a choice of serial or USB touch interface, a sealed touchscreen for greater protection, multilingual OSD, internal power supply and worldwide agency approvals.
"Like all of the company's chassis LCD touchmonitors, the Entuitive 1547L 15in LCD touchmonitor has a long-lasting product cycle because the enclosure is controlled by Elo's specifications", says Sigona.
"Future panel improvements are therefore possible to the model without the customer having to deal with external changes".
The 1547L features a unique, injection-moulded mini-bezel and virtually invisible watertight seal, plus a multitude of mounting options, including rear mount and VESA mount in its basic form, with optional front/panel mount bezels or 19in rack mount bezel.
The 1547L includes a choice of serial or USB touch interface, multilingual remote OSD, internal power supply and worldwide agency approvals.
