If you see something in the background, but it's not responding to your touch, please do the following pre-checks: - Interactive Pre-checks: Touch the screen with 1 finger

- Touch on different points of the foil

- Questions to answer:
- Is there a minimum 10mm gap between the display and the window around the full circumference?
- Is the ribbon cable seated properly?
- Is the touchfoil clean on the i) inside and the ii) outside of the screen?
- Are there insects, dust, or water that has become in-between the foil & the glass?
- Do you see any nicks in the touchfoil wires?
- Solutions to apply are:
- Clean the outside glass window with a damp microfiber cloth, then make sure to wipe it with a dry microfiber cloth
- Clean the touchfoil with a dry microfiber cloth on the inside of the glass window (Do not use a 'spray-n-wipe' chemical spray)
- Ensure the ribbon is properly attached to the connections
- Adjust the touchfoil calibration
- If there are 'nicks' or 'insects' between the glass & touchfoil, contact our support team

- Check if the XML file sent has the correct data. If not, amend the field in your software

Generally, restarting the screen resolves the issue, but knowing the cause will help future troubleshooting. Please send any information and supporting photos/videos to our support team.
