• Place the monitor at least 12 inches from other electrical or heat-emitting
equipment and allow at least 4 inches on each side for ventilation.
• Place the monitor in a position where no light shines or is reflected directly
on the screen.
• To reduce eye strain, avoid installing the display unit against a bright
background such as a window.
• Position the monitor so the top of the screen is no higher than eye level.
• Position the monitor directly in front of you at a comfortable reading
distance.

MPORTANT
:
Before connecting the cables to your touchmonitor and computer, be sure that the
computer and touchmonitor are turned off.
1 Connect the video cable to the video connector on your computer. Secure the
cable to your computer by turning the screws on the connector in a clockwise
direction.
2-6 Elo Entuitive Touchmonitor User Guide
2 Connect the power cable to the AC connector on your touchmonitor. To
protect your equipment against risk of damage from electrical surges in the
power line, plug the touchmonitor’s power cord into a surge protector, and
then connect the surge protector to a grounded (three-pronged) AC electrical
outlet.
3 Connect the touchscreen cable. Determine if you have RS-232 or USB.
Connect one end to the appropriate port on the back of your PC. Connect the
other end of the cable to the touchscreen connector on your touchmonitor.
The touchscreen cable connectors should fit snugly into the connectors on
your touchmonitor and PC.
