APPENDIX 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 LCD touchmonitor, the native resolution is 1024 x 768 for the 15 inch size. In almost all cases, screen images look best when viewed at their native resolution. The resolution setting of a monitor can be lowered but not increased.
As an example, a SVGA resolution LCD panel has 800 pixels horizontally by 600 pixels vertically. Input video is also represented by the same terms. XGA input video has a format of 1024 pixels horizontally by 768 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.
APPENDIX B TOUCHMONITOR SAFETY This manual contains information that is important for the proper setup and maintenance of the touchmonitor. Before setting up and powering on the new touchmonitor, read through this manual, especially Chapter 2 (Installation), and Chapter 3 (Operation). 1 To reduce the risk of electric shock, follow all safety notices and never open the touchmonitor case. 2 Turn off the product before cleaning. 3 The new touchmonitor is equipped with a 3-wire, grounding power cord.
