My ELO Touchscreen died!

[fordman]

Hello All,

Anyone have any issues with their ELO touchscreens? The LCD screen works but the touchscreen seems to have quit functioning. I have looked at all the wires and they seem to be intact. No electric spikes or surges as the jukebox is on a surge protector. Halloween night it worked fine. I usually just let it go and I checked it 2 days ago, touched the screen and NADDA! Nothing!

I uninstalled and re-installed the drivers a dozen times. When I plug the USB cable in, the jukebox recognizes the ELO, so the controller board seems to be working. The ELO control panel shows that the ELO is connected and the controller is working properly.

I'm at wits end. 

I did attach another ELO that was sitting in a box up to it and the second one worked just fine. I attached the one in question to another computer and same results, no responce from the touchscreen but the lcd display below works fine and the ELO control panel also says the ELO is connected and the controller is working properly.

Do the touchscreens go bad? ELO's website says the Intelletouch screen are virtuously indestructable.

Anyone else have or have seen this issue?

Thats what I'm afraid of, but at least I have the LCD screen that I'm going to use to make my juke a dual screen!

We use Elos on all our medical equipment, they tend to do that.

we also use elo 15'' serial screens on our games terminals, they are prone to just giving up like that. try searching for a company called 'pentranic', they do good 19'' lcd's...
