Extended Product Information
FAQs
What types of HMI screens does this pen work with?
This pen is designed for both capacitive and resistive Siemens SIMATIC HMI touch screens.
How do I switch between capacitive and resistive modes?
The pen features a dual-mode cap. Simply detach and reattach the cap to switch between the resistive and capacitive functions.
What is included in the package?
The package includes one dual-mode pen with a resistive/capacitive cap, one additional resistive cap, a securing cord, and a mountable wall holder.
Can I use this pen with non-Siemens touch screens?
While it's designed for Siemens SIMATIC HMI screens, it might function on other resistive and capacitive screens, but compatibility is not guaranteed.
How should I clean the touch pen?
Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to clean the pen. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
What are the mounting options for the holder?
The holder can be mounted using either screws for a secure, permanent fixture or adhesive for a less invasive installation.
Is the securing cord long enough for comfortable use?
The length of the securing cord is designed to keep the pen attached to the HMI area without being overly cumbersome during operation.
Troubleshooting
Pen not recognized by the HMI screen
Verify the pen is correctly configured for the screen type (capacitive/resistive). Ensure the HMI screen is clean and the pen tip is making proper contact. Check for any physical damage to the pen or screen.
Inaccurate touch input on resistive screen
Ensure the correct resistive cap is attached. Clean the screen and pen tip. Recalibrate the HMI touch screen if the option is available in the HMI settings.
Pen feels loose or unstable
Check that the cap is firmly attached to the pen body. Ensure the securing cord is properly connected if used.
Holder not sticking securely
Clean the mounting surface thoroughly before applying the adhesive backing. Ensure the surface is smooth and dry. For more permanent mounting, use the screw option if available and appropriate.
Pros and Cons

- Enhances precision on HMI touch screens.
- Durable, industrial-grade construction for longevity.
- Dual-mode functionality for broad screen compatibility within the SIMATIC range.
- Includes all necessary accessories for immediate use and convenient storage.
- Flexible mounting options suit various workspace configurations.
Cons
- Primarily designed for Siemens SIMATIC HMI systems.
- May require calibration on certain resistive screens.
- Anodized finish, while durable, can still be scratched by abrasive materials.
- Securing cord might be a minor entanglement risk in some environments.
- Not a universal stylus for all touch screen devices.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Attach the desired cap (capacitive or resistive) to the pen.
- Connect the securing cord to the pen and a convenient anchor point if needed.
- Mount the wall holder using the provided screws or adhesive backing in a suitable location near the HMI panel.
- Place the pen in the holder when not in use.
Compatibility:
- Primarily compatible with Siemens SIMATIC HMI touch screens (both capacitive and resistive types).
- Ensure your specific Siemens HMI model supports the use of an ELO touch pen system.
Care:
- Clean the pen and holder with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Periodically check the pen tip for debris and clean gently if necessary.
- Ensure the securing cord and holder are securely attached.
