How Connection Works

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.


Connection Options

  1. HDMI or DisplayPort for video signal.

  2. USB Type-A or Type-C for touch input.

  3. Ethernet for network-based POS apps.

  4. Wi-Fi for cloud-based checkout platforms.


Compatibility Checklist

  • Make sure your POS software supports touch interaction.

  • Install the correct ELO drivers for Windows or Android.

  • Use powered USB hubs if adding barcode scanners or MSR readers.

  • For advanced use, integrate with ELO Edge Connect accessories directly.


Common POS Platforms Supported

  • Lightspeed

  • Square

  • Clover

  • Shopify POS

  • Toast

  • Vend

Each has verified compatibility with ELO touch displays.


Real Example

A retail store replaced aging tablets with ELO 15 inch monitors connected to existing Windows POS stations. The setup worked immediately using plug-and-play drivers and reduced transaction times by 18 percent.


Final Thoughts

ELO displays are designed for universal compatibility. Whether you are upgrading an old POS or building a new checkout station, ELO hardware integrates smoothly while keeping installation simple.
