What is it?
This is a display which uses “Projected 
capacitive” 10 point touch panel 
technology. Used with latest OS like 
Windows 10, it offers you groovy 
touch gestures like tap, grab, pinch, 
rotate, zoom, swipe, etc. Your older 
applications come to life, and now you 
can fully utilize the new capabilities of 
touch based applications. Now you can 
view and scroll through finger-touch 
directly without using keyboard or 
mouse.
How do I use it?
To activate touch functionality, connect 
the display with the provided USB cable 
to your computer. You can softly touch 
the screen surface to interact with the 
applications with different gestures 
like swipe, tap, pinch, etc. You can use 
either single finger touch, or multi-finger 
touch upto maximum simultaneous 10 
touch points.
