Remove the CRT

Removal of the CRT is next. Prepare a soft surface to set the CRT on. Remove the screws attaching the CRT to the bezel, and then remove the CRT. Do not lift or carry the CRT by the neck or yoke assembly. Avoid contact with the anode button, which may still have some residual charge on it, (you may wish to discharge it again at this point). Set the CRT on the prepared surface.

Several other preliminary compatibility requirements should now be assessed:

Position the CRT so the face is accessible, providing a soft cushion for the neck and the yoke if they must rest on the work surface. Alternatively, set the CRT face-up in an office-type plastic waste basket, making sure that the tube is not resting on the neck (The small thin part of the CRT is the neck). Place the touchscreen on the face of the tube, and check to see that the face of the CRT and touchscreen are about the same size, and that the radius of curvature (ROC) of each surface matches well. If both of these conditions are not met, you may not have the proper touchscreen for the display. Most color displays have standard size CRT's with standard ROC's, and Elo has touchscreens for most of them.

Next, determine if the touchscreen will fit in the bezel without modifications to the bezel. Modifications, if necessary, should be done without compromising the mechanical integrity of the display.

Lay the touchscreen face-down in the bezel, being careful not to damage the transducers. Leave the degaussing coil in place, if present. The degaussing coil is a hoop, often located between the CRT and bezel, approximately

0.25-inch (6 mm) thick, with a two-wire cable and connector. The coil was probably unplugged from the power supply earlier.

If the touchscreen will not fit flush against the lip of the bezel, do not force it. An interference fit between the edge of an IntelliTouch touchscreen and some of the plastic ribs found in display bezels can pinch and break the small wires which carry the signals along the edges of the touchscreen or even result in fracture of the glass after reassembly.

It may be necessary to cut these ribs and struts inside the bezel. Cutting these ribs and struts does not usually cause difficulties although the stiffness of the bezel may be reduced slightly. Try not to cut into the posts for the CRT attachment screws. Bezel and tube combinations that require this cut are rare.

Generally, a total clearance between the edge of the touchscreen and any ribs or struts of at least 0.25-inch (6 mm) in both axes is necessary. This prevents the interference fit problem discussed above and allows for variation in touchscreen mounting position.
