If you are an inexperienced GUI engineer, you will feel helpless if the HMI touch screen breaks.It may also slow down the process.Therefore, it is important to understand the cause and solution of the HMI touch screen problem.With these solutions, you can solve your problems by yourself.

Common failures of HMI touch screens are:

1 fault.The touch screen is inconsistent

solution

1.Check how the touch screen’s signal LED is flashing.Under normal circumstances, the light flashes periodically, usually once per second.When touching the screen, the light will remain on, release the finger, the light will resume flashing.
2. If the signal LED indicator is on all the time without any touch, please check whether you need to clean the screen.Then check that the serial port of the hardware connection is the same as the serial port you selected in the software.Next, check whether the serial port of the computer host works normally.
3. After installing the driver for the first calibration, please note system errors, such as “control card not found”, “touch screen not connected”.Please check the corresponding parts according to the error message.For example, check that the touch screen signal line is firmly connected to the control card and that all keyboard cables are connected to the host.
4. If you still cannot solve the problem, please seek professional help.
