ELO Touchscreen Power Pinout

ELO Touchscreen Power Pinout

Postby skyline » Tue Feb 24, 2009 12:47 am

Been searching and searching for what I would assume would be easy to find, but have had no luck. Just got my "new" ELO 15" touch (Model Number; ET1525L-7SWA-B) and it has no power cord, which was to be expected, as I bought it off eBay. Problem is I, being the *** that I am, assumed it used a standard monitor power cable, and it doesn't. So, I tore it apart, got to the board with the power connector on it, and on the bottom of the pcb, there are 5 metal pins soldered to the board. Four of them for the four pins in the connector, and one for what looks to be shielding around the inside diameter of the connector.

I figured I would find a pinout, and solder some wires to the underside of the board for power, but I can't seem to find a pinout for this thing anywhere. I could test and see which pins on the underside of board coincide with pins in the connector, but I still wouldn't have any idea which were power and ground.

So, if anyone can find a pinout, or tell me a way to determine which pins are ground/power it would be greatly appreciated.

And if anyone wants a pic of it, I can take one, but it kinda looks like the female end of this.

Thanks ^*^

Actually, the most similar thing I could find in my house was a power cable for an external CD drive.

Only difference with a laptop power cable is that it is a barrel connector, and doesn't have the pins inside.

Oh yeah, sorry about that, I don't mess with laptops that much.

Have you considered contacting the manufacturer and see if they can help you out?

I did think about it, but they're probably just going to tell me to buy an AC adapter, and I'm planning on running it off DC.

If I see anyone at work and remember it, I'll see if they have the product manual for them. We have at least one ELO touchscreen, though I don't know how old or what model they are, at work. I'd think that the power adapter used on them is about the same between the 15" models. Unfortunately the group that would know about them or be able to find out got moved out of the building I'm in and aren't as easy to contact anymore.
