Frequently Asked Questions - CB-TOUCH12-T Black Box

How do I connect the touchscreen to my computer?

Connect the VGA or DVI cable to your computer's video output, then connect the USB cable (Type-B to Type-A) to enable touch functionality.

Does the monitor support multi-touch?

No, this model uses resistive touch technology which supports only single-touch input.

What is the recommended cleaning method?

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the screen. For stubborn stains, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild screen cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I mount this monitor on a wall?

Yes, the monitor has a VESA 75x75 mm mounting pattern. Use a compatible arm or bracket.

The touch response is inaccurate. How do I calibrate it?

In Windows, go to Control Panel > Tablet PC Settings > Calibrate. In Linux, use the 'xinput_calibrator' tool. Follow on-screen instructions.

What is the power consumption?

Typical power consumption is ≤ 20W. Use only the supplied 12V/3A adapter.

Why is there no display signal?

Ensure the video cable is firmly connected and your computer is outputting to the correct port. Also check that the monitor is powered on (blue LED).

Is the touchscreen compatible with gloves?

Resistive touch requires direct pressure; thin gloves may work but thick gloves might not register. For gloved use, consider capacitive touch models.

How do I adjust the brightness and contrast?

Use the buttons on the monitor bezel to access the On-Screen Display (OSD) menu. Navigate to Picture settings.

Where can I download drivers?

Drivers are available on the Black Box support website (search for CB-TOUCH12-T). For Windows 10/11, the HID driver is often automatically installed.

2. Overview

2.1 Introduction

The ControlBridge Wired Touch Panels models include 7" and 12" screen sizes. Both models provide multimedia integration, lighting automation, security monitoring, entertainment integration, and meeting and presentation control. The active matrix touch screen display supports 1280 x 800 pixels resolution for 7" and 12" screen sizes. Both models produce stunning true-color images. A Wired Ethernet connection provides easy network integration. The touch panels are equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE for 7" and PoE+ for 12")—technology enabling an Ethernet network cable to deliver both data and power. Fully compatible with ControlBridge controllers, these touch panels provide the ultimate one-touch solution for meeting rooms, conference rooms, boardrooms, and high-tech homes

3. Installation

3.1 Mounting

Desktop models can be placed on any flat surface. To install, follow these steps:

1. Don't forget to prepare the proper bushing for the cable including a standard connector. The bushing should have a minimum diameter of approximately 20mm for the Ethernet connector.
2. Install the network cable as described on the following picture and connect the network connector.

Figure 3-1. Connecting the ControlBridge Wired Touch Panel to the network.

1. Place the touch panel on a table.

3.2 Cleaning the Touch Panel

Clean the touch panel screen overlay after each day's use.

You will need:

1 Two clean, soft texture cloths (cotton).
2. Spray bottle of cleaning solution without alcohol (window cleaner).
3. Clean aluminium parts using a special cleaning solution.

Follow these steps:

1. Turn the touch panel off.
2. Spray a small amount of the cleaning solution onto one of the cloths.
3. Clean the touch panel overlay with the damp cloth.
4. Wipe the touch panel overlay with the dry cloth.

3.3 Connection

3.3.1 Ethernet

The standard 10/100BASE-T LAN uses an RJ-45 connector. It does not autosense polarity, which means it does not recognize straight through cable or cross-over cable. To connect directly to the PC, you must use cross-over cable; to connect directly to an toEthernet switch, use straight through cable. The length of the Ethernet cable that connects touch panel to the network must not exceed 328 feet (100 meters).

Power over Ethernet is fully compatible with:

• IEEE 802.3af (PoE) standard for 7" model
• IEEE 802.3at (PoE Plus) standard for 12" model

Power over Ethernet integrates data and power on the same wires. It keeps the structured cabling safe and does not interfere with concurrent network operation.

Power over Ethernet needs compatible Ethernet switches or injectors. You can order these from Black Box or another equipment manufacturer.

3.3.2 Direct PC Connection

The touch panel models are equipped with PoE power supply (7" models) or PoE+ power supply (12" models). That means one CATx cable is used for power supply and for data.

Make sure you use:

• PoE Adapter for 7" model
• PoE+ Adapter for 12" model

Follow these steps:

1. Attach one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet straight-through cable to the LAN port on the ControlBridge touch panel and attach the other end of this cable to the OUT port of a PoE (or PoE+) Adapter.
2. Attach one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet straight-through cable to the IN port of the PoE (or PoE+) Adapter and attach the other end of this cable to the LAN port of your computer.
3. Attach the power supply to the PoE (PoE+) adapter.
