Eyegonomic 15" monitor
Anyone any experience of these? Its circa 2003 and has various
controls marked on the fascia beneath an overall glass screen, including an on/off switch symbol. From this configuration I assume that they are touch controls. On powering up, the screen actually displays beautifully, but none of the touch controls do anything. It seems that the Eyegonomic company has vanished. At power up the screen does briefly display a Samsung logo. Any help or advice on this beast would be greatly appreciated. |

You might ask on one of the Mac groups... About a Samsung monitor? I haven't dealt with one of those personally, but a good place to start is figuring out how the touch sensing works. |

Right, that is what I am after. As there are apparently no embedded wires/leds around the glass etc I am assuming its some sort of capacitive or inductive sensing. Not had it opened yet. BTW I have it plugged in to a Compaq laptop just to test it. Do you know if there was something specifically different with the video connector on the Mac? (Just wondering why they were marketed to Mac users.) They were about 450 UKP when new, so quite high-end I think. |

I think this group is as good as any for someone wanting to repair it. I agree 100%. And, no one here responded to the OP's first post * nor the second with anything useful * so I was merely suggesting another possible avenue. And FWIW, mac guys tend to be about a dozen times more technical than PC guys, as a group. |

I bet if you take the back off the thing it'll be pretty clear how the touch sensing works, I'm curious myself now. |

Yes, I cant resist it...I will open it up and see what I can find and report back as soon as I have time. Ron |
