Touchscreen to pearl expert T8.1

Postby dxd » 20 Sep 2016, 06:07

How can I connect a tochscreen as an external monitor on my pearlexpert Titan 8.1?
I have connected a ELO usb screen but the touchfunction seems to work on the other screen. WHen i touch the screen the pointer jumps away to "another screen"

The touchscreen will need to be configured to assign/map the touch sensor to the correct monitor output. The recommendation is to use touchscreens that support Windows Touch which means that drivers and utilities are built into Windows and the console. If this monitor supports this then go to Tools > Control Panel > More... and open Tablet PC Setup. In there, click on the Setup button and press Enter on the keyboard until text is shown on the external screen, at which point touch the screen to identify it. Note that if no compatible touchscreen is detected the Tablet PC Setup icon will not be displayed, in which case you may need to use drivers or utilities supplied with the touchscreen to configure it. We do not recommend installing drivers or software on Avolites consoles as this has the potential to make the console unstable or even crash. If you do choose to do so, I would suggest that you test the console thoroughly before using it on a show and be aware that if you do have any problems you may need to run a recovery stick to return the console to normal.
