Selecting the touch driver
In most cases you can install from the TouchTools CD, but the most current drivers are always on
the Elo web site.
Particularly if your operating system is Windows Vista, we recommend that you download the
driver, as earlier versions of the CD will not install the correct Vista driver.
If your touch technology is Acoustic Pulse Recognition, you will need to use the APR driver CD or
download the APR driver (APR is for Windows XP only). APR technology is indicated by a –A in
the model number:
• ET1529L-A …
• The model number is on an Elo sticker on the back of the monitor, near the video
connectors
The correct driver for all other touch technologies is determined by the operating system
• Embedded operating systems notes:
o Not for use on standard Windows XP operating systems
o IMPORTANT NOTE: These drivers cannot simply be installed by running the
Setup file – they must be incorporated into the embedded operating system
“build” using the appropriate Microsoft software development tools (the included
Setup file is used transparently during the build process)
Installing from the TouchTools CD (not for APR touch technology; not for Windows Vista
