How to Verify if You Have an AccuTouch Monitor
Method 1: Check the Model Number Label
Locate the product label on the rear of the monitor near the bottom I/O cable bay (remove the plastic cable shroud if installed). In the full model string (e.g., ET1915L-7CWA-1-G), the digit 7 immediately following the first hyphen identifies the unit as utilizing AccuTouch 5-wire resistive technology.
Method 2: Physical Screen Inspection
AccuTouch displays utilize a flexible polyester top sheet suspended over a rigid glass bottom substrate by microscopic insulating separator dots:
- Gently gliding the back of your fingernail across an unpowered screen will reveal subtle texture/bumps from the internal separator dot array.
- By contrast, Elo’s IntelliTouch (SAW), TouchPro® (PCAP), and Infrared (IR) displays feature a completely smooth, solid pure glass outer surface.
