Touchpanels for Sharp.

[Hansoon]

Would like to know which Sharp models are suffering from the dreaded touch panel disease of unresponsive touch panels.

Lots of thanks in advance.

I haven't seen any on Sharp. They must have better technology for the panels. =^..^=

I had a customer recently call on for a scanning issue, and while on the phone she mentioned her touchpanel was "slow", she would count a 10 second delay from the time she hit one of the buttons to the time the machine would complete the activity.

This was a brand new instal of about 2 weeks prior. They are on scan to e-mail so I figured it was a network problem on their end. I was kind of at a loss on the touch panel scenario, so I recommended the 'ol power cycle. She called back about 10 minutes later and said that seemed to fix BOTH issues.

There is a setting in system settings for touch length that can be set up to about two seconds. Have seen this messed with.

The first generation of the new style display had a slight response delay. Models such as the MX-3610N. Updating the firmware to version 7 or higher will improve the response.

Nice input guys but that doesn't help me.

Sharp's are not suffering from UNresponsive touch panels??

Yeah, I told her that it was likely something someone messed with, without knowing. However, according to her a reboot fixed the issue... so not sure about that.

Nope. ZERO that I have seen

Coming from a Panasonic background, I have to say Sharps touch pads are pretty well made.
The Panasonic part number DZTE000044R is burnt into my brain!!!

[CorbinDallas]

If it doesn't work at all and has not been previously disassembled, there may be debris in the edges of the touch panel locking it out.

Re: Touchpanels for Sharp.

Haven't had any unresponsive touch panels but the new ones seem to "drift" and have to be recalibrated every so often. Maybe this is what you mean by unresponsive? Also had 1 touch screen with a small dent in the surface and that area of the screen was screwed up in a 1" X 1" area, rest of the screen worked just fine.

Have a great day.

Yes, that's the problem. It starts with "Drifting" as you call it and than after some time the touch panel is not any longer reacting to the inputs and cannot be recalibrated but has to be replaced.

What are those newer models? I'm not a Sharp guy, that's why I'm asking.
