ELO Touchscreens
Palette consoles can utilize ELO touchscreens. This makes running the console much
easier and is highly suggested.
Since the drivers are part of the XP Embedded build, only ELO Touchscreens should be
used. These are the same ones often used for cash registers are very durable.
www.elotouch.com. Get the AccuTouch models (i.e. resistive technology which means
you can use things other than your finger, like a fingernail, pen, etc.) You need to
purchase the USB type, NOT serial. We recommend the 3000 series.
Once you purchase your touchscreens (one or two will work), you should be able to just
plug them in and boot the system (hot plugging is not suggested).
Important Note: The very first time that you connect the ELO touch screens, you may
experience a Blue Screen on the console reporting a serious error. This is because of a
conflict with the ELO touch screen drivers and the current system setup. If you
experience this problem, remove power to the console, reconnect and power up the
system again. This time there should be no conflict and the system will operatre
normally from this point onward.
You will need to calibrate the screens. To do this, choose ELO Touch Calibration from
