Overview

The Elo IDS Touch Stylus comes in two versions. The active pen (E216215) works with PCAP IDS displays 5053L, 5553L and 6553L, offering up to 1024 pressure levels and an eraser button. The passive pen (E727568) suits IR IDS displays including 4303L and 5554L. Both carry a 2-year warranty. Ideal for schools, offices and retail sites in Qatar equipping Elo interactive screens.

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.

Questions about IDS Touch Stylus

Which Elo IDS Touch Stylus do I need for my display?
Start with the touch technology of your panel. The active pen E216215 is built for PCAP IDS displays 5053L, 5553L and 6553L, while the passive pen E727568 suits IR IDS displays 4303L, 5053L, 5054L, 5553L, 5554L and 6553L. Models 5053L, 5553L and 6553L appear on both lists, so the display's touch type decides the part number. Send us your display model and we will confirm the match before quoting.
What can the active pen do beyond basic writing?
The active pen reads up to 1024 pressure levels, detects tilt angle and supports pen priority. Its lower function button activates the eraser, and the upper button handles the barrel function. The pen sleeps automatically after two minutes of inactivity, which helps the AA battery last between lessons and meetings. These controls suit teachers annotating lessons and presenters marking up floor plans or contracts on screen.
Does the passive pen need a battery?
The manufacturer data gives no power specification for the passive pen E727568. The active pen uses one replaceable AA battery, and its box includes two AA batteries alongside the black and silver active pens. If you buy passive pens for an IR display, ask our team to confirm the power details on the product sheet before you plan spares.
Can the stylus handle Qatar's summer heat?
The stylus is rated to operate between 0&deg;C and 50&deg;C at 20% to 80% humidity, with storage rated up to 70&deg;C. Summer temperatures in Doha can exceed 45&deg;C, so keep spare pens in an air-conditioned room rather than a parked car or a sunlit windowsill. If a display sits near a window or a hot cabinet, ask SmartRooms Qatar to check the room conditions before installation.
What warranty applies to the Elo IDS Touch Stylus?
The manufacturer data lists a 2-year warranty for this stylus, and products supplied by SmartRooms Qatar are covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Keep your purchase order with the listed part numbers so any warranty claim can be matched to the correct active or passive pen. Ask the team to confirm the warranty terms on your quotation before ordering.
Which operating systems does the active pen support?
The manufacturer lists Win7, Win10, Android and Linux for the active pen. Windows 11 is not named in the source data, so confirm it with our team before ordering pens for Windows 11 workstations. The passive pen data has no operating system entry. If your site mixes Windows and Android displays, we can match the correct part number to each panel in one quotation.
How would a private school in Al Wakrah use these pens?
A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out new classrooms with 6553L PCAP panels can equip each room with active pens. The box includes a black and a silver active pen with two AA batteries, so teachers can share the pair or each take one. Add spare pens for the staff room, and if the school needs a purchase order for the project, SmartRooms Qatar accepts LPOs.
What about a government office in Msheireb with an IR display?
A government office in Msheireb with IR touch displays at its reception can use the passive pen E727568, which is listed for 5554L and supplied as a pair in space grey. Keep the second pen at the reception desk so visitors and staff do not wait for a single shared pen. Request a quotation that states the pen quantity and the display model.
Are active pens useful in a West Bay boardroom?
In a West Bay boardroom with a 5553L display, the active pen lets executives annotate proposals with strokes that change weight with pressure. The source lists pen priority among its features, so ask the team how it behaves on your specific display and test it before full rollout. Because 5553L appears on both lists, confirm it is a PCAP unit before ordering the active pen.
Can a training centre in Education City use these pens in busy rooms?
Training rooms in Education City see heavy use, with several people handling the same pens, so keep at least one spare per room. The stylus is rated for 0&deg;C to 50&deg;C, which suits air-conditioned training rooms. The manufacturer data gives no drop or impact rating, so store pens in a tray or cabinet between sessions rather than loose on tables. Request one quote covering the pens and spares.
How should a facilities team in Lusail plan pens for a new campus?
For a new campus in Lusail, start with a list of every display and its touch type, then match each one to the active or passive part number. Count the pens needed per room and add spares. Check battery supply for active pens, since each one uses one AA battery. Send the list in one request so the quotation can be issued as a single document, usually within one working day.
Can we order several pens through a purchase order?
Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs), government tenders including Monaqasat, and payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Send the part numbers, quantities and display models in one request. We deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar, and quotations are usually issued within one working day. Ask us about installation of the displays the pens will support, too.
