Conflict Minerals Compliance

Posted on March 2, 2020 at 16:13

Increasing international attention concerning the extraction, processing, and use of “Conflict Minerals” originating from mining operations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and adjoining countries prompted the United States Congress to enact the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which requires publicly traded companies utilizing conflict minerals in their products to disclose the source of such minerals. The legislation was enacted in an effort to dissuade companies from continuing to engage in mineral trade, which directly or indirectly supports regional conflicts.

New Standard 4-Year Warranty for Hope Industrial Products

Posted on October 23, 2019 at 13:38

Effective immediately, HIS is increasing our standard warranty to 4 years. And, it’s retroactive – all products we have shipped since October 23, 2015 are covered. All other warranty terms stay the same.

We’ve shipped over 125,000 monitors since announcing the industry-first 3-year warranty in 2001 and the good news for our customers (and for us) is that our products rarely fail on their own. But now you have the assurance that, if one does, you are covered for 48 months!

Installing and Calibrating your Hope Industrial Touch Screen

Posted on March 14, 2019 at 16:15

One of the most common questions our Tech Support group receives is how to calibrate the touch screen, usually during the initial installation. To help users through the process, we’ve created this step-by-step guide for Microsoft Windows users.

Depending on how far off your alignment is, it might be necessary to temporarily connect a mouse to perform these steps.

These instructions apply to Windows versions 7, 8, and 10 when using the USB touch screen interface – there may be small differences depending on your version.
