							3 Operating the touch screen
Installing the touch software
Microsoft Windows 7/Vista/XP (plug and play)
NOTE:Refer to Connecting the cables on page 5 for instructions on connecting the USB cable.
When you connect the USB cable between the monitor and a computer running Windows 7, Windows
Vista, or Windows XP, the touch driver software will automatically install. The driver software may take
a minute to install, and for Windows 7 and Windows Vista a message will display on the monitor
screen indicating that the driver software has been installed successfully. After the touch driver software
is installed, you can select, launch, and drag objects using the touch screen. To make a selection, touch
the screen.
NOTE:For Windows XP, the touch driver loads as an input device, so there will be no message
verifying the driver installation.
NOTE:Multi-touch gestures are supported in Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise,
and Ultimate operating system editions only. Multi-touch is not supported in Windows 7 Home Basic or
Starter editions, Windows Vista, or Windows XP.
NOTE:If touch control does not begin to work within 20 seconds, you should verify that the touch
driver is installed.
To verify that the touch driver is installed:
●Windows 7—Select Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System, and ensure
that Pen and Touch: Touch Input Available with 2 Touch Points is listed in the System
section.
●Windows Vista—Select Start > Control Panel > Mobile PC > Pen and Input Devices. If
the Touch tab appears, touch input is available.

one HID-compliant mouse entry will appear.

							Tips and troubleshooting
Tips
●WARNING!Keep the display away from any heat sources, such as electric radiators, natural
gas pipes, or direct sunlight. Also keep the display away from excessive dust, mechanical
vibration, or shock.
For safety, remove the power plug prior to cleaning.
●To maintain a brand new appearance of the display, clean with a soft cloth regularly. Remove
stubborn stains with a soft cleaner.
CAUTION:Do not use strong cleaners such as a diluting agent, benzene, or a corrosive
cleaner, as they may damage the display.
●Never disassemble or repair the product yourself. If your problem cannot be solved according to
the troubleshooting guidelines, please contact your local dealer.
●Retain the original packaging materials. They will be convenient if you need to transport your
display again.
NOTE:For best protection, pack the display in the original manner of package from the factory.
●The touch function may need about seven seconds to resume if the USB cable is re-plugged or the
computer resumes from Sleep mode.

							Touch screen troubleshooting
NOTE:For general troubleshooting information, refer to the HP LCD Monitors Reference Guide
included on the disc with your monitor.
Table 3-2  Touch screen troubleshooting
Problem Solution
Computer does not recover from Sleep mode when the touch
screen is touched.Sleep mode recovery is not supported by the touch screen.
Use the keyboard or mouse to recover from Sleep mode.
The USB cable is quickly removed from the monitor and
reinserted, and the touch function is lost.Windows takes a minimum amount of time to adjust system
parameters when a USB device is either removed or
connected. Try removing the USB cable again, wait for at
least five seconds, and then plug it in again.
Multi-touch gestures do not function on Windows 7 Home
Basic or Starter editions, Windows Vista, or Windows XP.Only Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise,
and Ultimate editions support multi-touch gestures.
The Start, Close, and other icons are too small to touch with
a finger.Windows 7 provides a large icon feature that supports touch
screen functions. This feature can be accessed in the Control
Panel. A stylus may also be used.
Touch operation does not function properly on lower-
resolution video modes that are not displayed in fullscreen.Although the monitor supports a fill-to-aspect ratio function, the
touch controller does not know how to respond to less-than-
fullscreen images. Either change the resolution to 1920 x
1080, or access the OSD menu and select Image Control
to enable Fill-to-Screen (default setting).
A single touch is recognized as two touches. If using a paint
tool, a single finger creates two lines.The touch controller has a limitation on the size of the touch
area. A fingertip touch usually works better than a flat
forefinger or thumb touch.
When the monitor used is in a dual-screen configuration, the
touch function on the second display does not work.The USB connection is only capable of operating a single-
touch screen monitor. If the second monitor is a touch monitor,
you must connect a second USB cable.
NOTE:Windows 7 Home Basic and Starter editions,
Windows Vista, and Windows XP do not support extended
display touch functionality. They support single-touch functions
on the primary monitor only, not the secondary monitor
(extended or cloned desktop).
