Two pens for two touch technologies
The Elo IDS Touch Stylus is listed under two part numbers because the Elo IDS range uses different touch technologies. Part number E216215 is an active pen for projected capacitive (PCAP) IDS displays. Part number E727568 is a passive pen for infrared (IR) IDS displays. Check the touch type of your display before you order, because each pen is matched to a different panel technology.
Active pen: precision and controls
The active version is the more feature-rich of the two. It reads pressure across up to 1024 levels, so stroke weight changes as the pen is pressed harder or lighter. The tip registers with less than 25g of force and tolerates up to 400g. Touch accuracy is within ±1mm in the centre of the screen and within ±1.5mm within 8mm of the edges, and the typical report rate is at least 133Hz.
Two function buttons sit on the pen. The lower button activates the eraser and the upper button performs the barrel function. Tilt angle detection and pen priority are also listed among its features. The pen enters sleep mode after two minutes of inactivity, which conserves its AA battery between sessions.
Passive pen and where each pen fits
The passive pen, E727568, is supplied as a pair in space grey and is listed for IR IDS displays 4303L, 5053L, 5054L, 5553L, 5554L and 6553L. The manufacturer data gives no power specification for it. Three typical Qatar settings show how the two pens are used:
- A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out classrooms with 6553L PCAP panels, where each teacher keeps an active pen and a spare sits in the staff room.
- A government reception area in Msheireb with an IR display, where a passive pen stays at the desk so visitors are not left waiting for a single shared pen.
- A boardroom in West Bay with a 5553L display, where an active pen lets executives mark up proposals on screen with pressure-sensitive strokes.
Planning for Qatar's climate and supplies
The stylus is rated for operation from 0°C to 50°C, with humidity between 20% and 80% during use, and storage rated up to 70°C. Summer temperatures in Doha can exceed 45°C, so keep spare pens in an air-conditioned room rather than in a parked vehicle or on a sunlit windowsill. If a display sits near a window or a hot cabinet, ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to check the room before installation.
- Match the part number to the display's touch type before ordering.
- The active pen takes one replaceable AA battery; the box includes two AA batteries.
- Order one spare pen per room so a lost pen does not stop a lesson or meeting.
- Confirm operating system support: the manufacturer lists Win7, Win10, Android and Linux.
