I have two 13" monitors here that used to be in Merit countertops. One has the touchscreen, and the other had it but it has been removed. I did not pull them myself.
Are they both VGA? The connectors are different on each. The Type 20 has the normal style 6-pin connector, and the Type 55 has a different type but is labeled as RGB etc. I want to use one as a test bench monitor (with a RGB-to-VGA converter), and the other as a touchscreen virtual jukebox monitor. Is there an adapter already that I can use, or do I need to hack a VGA cable?
Also, the Type 55 is missing the remote board. Obviously it won't work without it. Is it the same as the Type 20? I guess I can build one on a mini-DIY board (since it's for the test bench), right?
I know I can go over to BYOAC for instructions on getting drivers for the touchscreen monitor so that the computer works ok with it, but I want to make sure I have the means to operate the monitor.
And these are both 120v, correct?
