Touchscreen, mouse and other input device setup
To set up the front panel keyboard
To enable the front panel keyboard connector, use a 5-pin DIN
keyboard cable (4- or 12-slot units) or a PS2 keyboard cable (8-slot
units) at the rear of the unit. Connect the male cable end to the
computer’s Keyboard connector.
An IBM AT keyboard may be connected to either the front panel
5-pin DIN connector or to the rear panel Keyboard connector. Only
one auxiliary keyboard input port can be used at any time.
Note: A Lemo style sealed keyboard connector is required to use the
front panel keyboard connector on 4-slot units.
If your computer has a touchscreen:
The Touchscreen option provides a high resolution resistive or
capacitive touchscreen system. Driver software, provided with the
Industrial Computer when configured with the touchscreen option,
allows the touchscreen to function with many popular DOS- and
Windows-based industrial applications as a pointing device (mouse).
Refer to the appropriate documentation packet, included with the
touchscreen option, for additional details on the installation and
operation of the touchscreen.
1. Connect one end of the touchscreen serial cable to the AUX2
connector on the monitor section. Connect the other end to the
COM1 port on the computer section as shown in figures 11 and
12.
2. Tighten the captive screws on the cable connector to secure it.
For units configured with the touchscreen option, the touchscreen
serial cable (RS-232) is provided with a 9-pin D-shell connector.
