Recently purchased this display from another simmer. It's in great condition, but the touchscreen functionality will not work.

System:

 

Core i7 2600K overclocked to 4.6GHz, two Radeon 6850's, taken out of Crossfire mode so that I can run 2 separate monitors. Using latest update of Win7 x64 Pro.

 

This monitor is supposed to send the touch signal back to the computer through the VGA cable. I am using a DVI-I Dual Link to VGA adapter at the video card because each card has 2 DVI-I Dual Link outputs and 2 HDMI outputs, but no DB15 VGA. Video is fine, just no touch function. Latest version of TouchKit driver is installed but it doesn't see the monitor.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Do you have one cable going to your PC from the monitor or two?

 

The VGA is only for the video out from the PC to the monitor. You may have a DVI-D to VGA for that as well.

 

For the touch, you would have another cable that goes from the serial port to the serial connector of the PC or to an USB if its an USB touch.

 

And a suitable driver program to calibrate the touch etc.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

The newer monitors use a USB connector to power the touch screen function. This model only uses the BCC data in the VGA cable to send an embedded signal back to the card. This is a full touchscreen monitor, but uses only VGA and power. You can see it here at http://www.onvon.com/lilliput-inch-touchscreen-monitor-p-2192.html. The video RCA ports and audio ports are just to use it with something other than VGA. TouchKit is the driver package.

Got it.

Got it.

 

So what was the issue. What did you do to make it work?

Umm... (insert stupid look), I have the wrong cable. The seller is sending the cable to me. It does have USB. It slipped his mind and the Lilliput website only calls out a VGA cable for the unit. It IS a VGA cable, but it has a USB pigtail wired into it right at the end so that the DB15 and USB splits at about the last 8" of cable.

 

Boy, I feel dumb.
