Touch Screen Kits

 
It is possible to convert an existing LCD display into a touch screen by integrating a touch sensor and controller.

The process requires the removal of the monitor casing, the bonding of the touch sensor to the TFT panel and the installation and connection of the touch screen controller - see Capacitive Touch Sensor
Installation Guide.

You will require the following parts:
  • Touch screen sensor, either Capacitive - (see ClearTek specification here)
    or Resistive
    (see 5-wire specification here)
  • Touch screen controller
    (see specification here)
  • Cable to connect the controller to the PC, either serial (part no. 7310101) or USB (part no. 7312256)
  • Double-sided touch sensor mounting tape, 9.5 mm x 32.9 M roll (part no. 24736)

There are certain factors to consider before attempting touch screen integration.

Compatibility with the LCD display

 
Not all LCD displays can accommodate a sensor and controller, so it is necessary to check with the manufacturer, if the model you wish to convert, is compatible. Many LCD display data-sheets state if the monitor can be converted to touch or not.

 
 

The monitor manufacturer´s warranty

 
You may be voiding the LCD display´s warranty by opening the casing. Check with the monitor manufacturer´s local authorized agent first.

 
 

The quantity of displays to be converted

 
As there is a minimum order quantity (MOQ) for touch sensors, you will need to be converting a large quantity of displays. The MOQ can be 20, 50 or 100 units, depending on the sensor part no. although smaller quantities can be supplied at more expensive sample pricing.

 
 

Damage to the LCD display

 
Opening the monitors casing and installing the touch screen components can damage the display´s electronics. The work should only be conducted by an experienced monitor engineer.

 
 

Touch sensor and controller warranty

 
Although the touch sensor and controller are covered by a 5-year warranty for regular usage, the warranty does not cover any damage incurred during installation. These are sensitive electronic components and the integrator should be aware that they are installing them at their own risk.

For the correct sensor part number for your display, please contact us by providing the following information:
  • Monitor size e.g. 20.1"
  • Monitor manufacturer, e.g. NEC
  • Monitor model no. e.g. 2080UX
  • Touch sensor required, (Resistive or Capacitive)
  • Quantity required
