Conf iguring the TPI for Touch Monitor Input
1. Discharge any acquired static electricity by touching a grounded metal object; disconnect the incoming power connector from
the rear of the TPI.
2. Connect the touch monitor's touch (keyboard/mouse) connector to the TPI:
Depending on the compatibilities of the touch monitor, they can connect to either the TOUCH INPUT (DB9) connector or one
of the Type-A USB ports (labeled KEYBOARD/MOUSE) on the TPI.
For touch monitors with Serial-touch connectors, use a DB9 Serial cable to connect the touch monitor's touch input

connector to the TOUCH INPUT (DB9) connector on the TPI. Refer to the TOUCH INPUT (DB-9) Port section on page 29 for
a description of the TOUCH INPUT connector pinouts.
For touch monitors with USB-touch connectors, use a USB cable to connect the touch monitor's touch input connector to

the KEYBOARD/MOUSE (USB Type A) connector on the TPI.
3. Connect the touch monitor's video output connector to the DVI OUTPUT 1 port on the TPI.
NOTE: This requires a CC-DVIM-VGAF DVI-to-VGA cable (FG10-2170-13), not included.
4. Connect a DVI video output connector on the PC to the VIDEO/VGA/DVI INPUT 1 connector on the TPI.
5. Apply power to the TPI.
