And does it's job very different from a light pen. A light pen senses the light from the monitor and the computer then sees which pixel is lit at the time the light pen detected it. Don't forget only one pixel is lit at any given time. So the unplug

Well, the monitor isn't touch screen. The light pen IS the mouse/trackball. If I touch the screen nothing happens. The industrial PC has no PS/2 ports of any kind on it. Perhaps I could splice into the light pen connections and connect a standard tra

Does any one know if it is possible to replace the stupid light pen on these machines with a standard mouse or trackball? I'm going crazy trying to get the damn thing to recognize any onscreen movements. Its like it has a mind of its own. Sometimes i
