CHAPTER 3 OPERATION About Touchmonitor Adjustments Your touchmonitor will not likely require adjustment. However, variations in video output and application may require adjustments to your touchmonitor to optimize the quality of the display. For best performance, your touchmonitor should be operating in native resolution, 1440 x 900 at 60 Hz. Use the Display control panel in Windows to choose 1440 x 900 resolution. Operating in other resolutions will degrade video performance.

APPENDI X A NATIVE RESOLUTION The native resolution of a monitor is the resolution level at which the LCD panel is designed to perform best. For the 1938L LCD touchmonitor, the native resolution is 1440 x 900. In almost all cases, screen images look best when viewed at their native resolution.
As an example, a WXGA+ resolution LCD panel has 1440 pixels horizontally by 900 pixels vertically. Input video is also represented by the same terms. WXGA input video has a format of 1440 pixels horizontally by 900 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.
