ELO touch displays function like standard monitors with added touch input through USB or serial connection. When connected to a POS computer, the system recognizes it as both a display and a touchscreen.
For Android-based I-Series models, ELO can act as the full POS terminal, eliminating the need for a separate computer entirely.
