Elo TouchSystems has introduced an entry-level touchmonitor as part of its expanding 1000 series. The new 1515L 15in LCD touchmonitor is a cost-effective touch solution for systems integrators and resellers in the retail and hospitality markets. The new space-saving touchmonitor is 'designed for touch' with Elo's proven expertise and reliability already built in.

The 1515L can function as a desktop or wall-mounted unit and the display is factory sealed against dirt and dust, and is styled to be attractive from all angles.

The 1515L touchmonitor is available with a choice of Elo's IntelliTouch surface wave or AccuTouch five-wire resistive touch technologies, plus a dual serial/USB touch interface.

Worldwide agency approvals cover the whole monitor, which is designed, built, serviced and supported by Elo, a single-source supplier.

Typical applications for the 1515L LCD desktop touch-monitor include point of sale (POS), point of service, loyalty systems and counter-top kiosk information systems.

'Elo invented touch technology over 30 years ago and has been the global standard in touch ever since', says Ignace Verhamme, Elo's Product Manager Europe.

'Using our experience, expertise and ingenuity, we created our family of 'designed for touch' products'.

'Touch technology is built into the 1515L from the ground up not added as an afterthought by altering the original monitor'.

'The new touchmonitors include a stable base'.

'Controls are placed on the side rather the front and are locked out for public use'.

'We also offer the two best touch technologies on the market today: the antiglare clarity and superior performance of IntelliTouch surface wave, and Elo's time-tested AccuTouch five-wire resistive touch technology, which can be used in a variety of environments because it registers input from a finger, gloved hand, credit card or stylus with a fast accurate response'.

According to Mike Sigona, Elo Market Manager: 'The new 1000 series 1515L touchmonitor provides a truly economical solution with Elo's renowned quality for systems integrators and resellers'.

'For customers wanting a wider choice of features, the recently launched 3000 series 1529L 15in touchmonitor offers numerous options including magnetic stripe reader (MSR), rear-facing customer displays, choice of colour and stand height, additional touch technologies and even the option of an integrated computer'.

'All in all, Elo's 1515L 15in LCD desktop touchmonitor provides a convenient, space-saving design that makes deploying touch solutions to market easier, more flexible and much more reliable'.
