C H A P T E R 4 TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS CHAPTER4 If you are experiencing trouble with your touchmonitor, refer to the following table. If the problem persists, please contact your reseller or our technical support at 1-800-557-1458.
Problem Suggestion(s) No image appears on screen. Check that the video cable and power connectors are properly connected as described in Chapter 2. Make sure the pins of the connectors are not crooked or broken. Check that power switch of the touchmonitor has been pressed and LED on the front of touchmonitor is lit.

A P P E N D I X A NATIVE RESOLUTION CHAPTER4 The native resolution of a monitor is the resolution at which the LCD panel is designed to perform best. In almost all cases, screen images look best when viewed at their native resolution. You can lower the resolution setting of a monitor but not increase it. For the Elo LCD touchmonitor, SXGA-17 inch, the native resolution is 1280 x 1024.
For example, a SVGA resolution LCD panel displays 800 pixels horizontally and 600 pixels vertically. Input video is also represented by the same terms. XGA input video has a format of 1280 pixels horizontally by 1024 pixels vertically. When the input pixels contained in the video input format match the native resolution of the panel, there is a one-to-one correspondence of mapping of input video pixels to LCD pixels.
