USB FLASH DRIVE
Display kits include a USB Flash Drive which you can use to save and transfer your data in and out of
the display.
COLOR TOUCH SCREEN
The display features a color touch screen display. The touch screen allows easy and intuitive navigation
through the screens on the display without the need for any external keypad or mouse devices. Here are
a few key things to remember if you are new to using a touch screen device:
• Do not use any sharp objects fo r running the touch screen device, this could result in damage to the
display. Using the tip of a finger is the recommended method of operating the display touch screen.
• Do not use any harsh chemicals to clean the touch screen. Using a dam p sof t cloth or an anti-st atic wipe
made specifically for cleaning computer displays is the correct way to cle an the screen and the
enclosure.
• The touch screen requires only a gentle touch of about half-second in duration to operate correctly. A
common mistake is to try to navigate too quickly through the system using firm taps instead of gentle
presses.
