With a projected capacitive touchscreen display, the PCT2235 22" 16:9 Multi-Touch LCD Monitor from Planar Systems allows users to interact with their content using up to 10 simultaneous touch points for a more immersive multimedia experience.

In addition to enhanced interactivity, this display also features reduced blue light emissions designed to reduce the strain placed on the eyes during extended viewing sessions. Installation is simple as the PCT2235 can be mounted to the wall using a VESA compatible mount or attached to the stand and tilted from 15 to 70°.

This Planar Systems touchscreen monitor is simple to set up as it comes equipped with VGA, HDMI, and DisplayPort inputs. Once configured viewers can take advantage of a Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution screen accompanied by a 1000:1 contrast ratio, a 250 nits brightness rating, and 178° horizontal and vertical viewing angles, making it easy to see the display from virtually any angle.

Multi-Touch Technology
The Planar PCT2235 21.5" Full HD monitor with multi-touch interactivity features projected capacitive touch technology, which registers up to 10 simultaneous touch points. The monitor is extremely fast and accurate for the office worker when scanning through emails, or for the graphic designer when swiping through various design alternatives or resizing photos.
Blue Light Reduction
Blue light has a short wavelength and produces a higher amount of energy. Studies have shown that prolonged exposure to blue light could damage your eyes. The Planar PCT2235 incorporates blue light reduction presets. Varying blue light levels, depending on the activity, enhances visual comfort when viewing the screen for extended periods of time.
Planar Helium Stand
The Planar Helium Stand can be easily tilted from 15 to 70° - quickly moving the user from passive viewing to full touch screen interaction. For the mobile worker desiring to dock their tablet to a larger display when manipulating spreadsheets, or for the college student scrolling through social media updates, the versatile stand accommodates all usage scenarios. For added flexibility, the stand can be collapsed into the back of the monitor and laid flat for tabletop usage, for example, in a museum environment to further explain an exhibit.
Multiple Video Inputs
For more integration flexibility, the Planar PCT2235 multi-touch monitor boasts multiple video inputs - DisplayPort, HDMI, and VGA - and integrated speakers. Additionally, the VESA-compatible hole pattern on the back of the monitor makes it easy to attach to other mounting option, such as a Planar single-arm clamp stand or a height-adjust desk stand.

Planar Systems PCT2235 Reviews

Second supplement to previous review

Among its other qualities, this display willfully refuses to play well with others in a multi-display set-up on Windoze. In fact, it reminds one of an exceedingly badly behaved child throwing a tantrum whenever called upon to get along with others. Both the display of desktop icons and the non-operation of the touchscreen feature will instantly persuade you to use this solo-only.

Planar's PCT2235s: Reach Out & Touch!

By Gregory

I've had touch screens for 10 years. They work, but they never gave me the results that I have with my new Planar 2235s! I use them with Hauptwerk 7, the superstar of virtual pipe organ programs, that depend on the kind of image clarity and control sensitivity found in this product. I'm a former New Yorker, familiar with B&H. I was thrilled to see their online merchandizing that was also 'best price' for this 'best product'. Planar and B&H: a perfect combination!

I purchased it for my Sound craft UI24R and it perfectly fit. B&H always do a good job.

The uses for these screens are many and we put them to work at countless trade shows and trainings. With their compact size and small footprint, they easily fit where space is an issue. In addition, the quality of the monitors makes it a great choice when doing hands-on training with customers.

Excellent experience!

After using this thing for a while, we found that the speakers, which add to the price of the display, are worse than worthless. At 2W, they sound even worse than you'd expect. They are totally useless. In some setups, when the display blanks in screensaver mode, it lights back up as one would expect, but displays a large and completely inappropriate set-up OSD which does not disappear unless and until the user hits the invisible operating button on the bezel. A small imperfection . . . until you have had to deal with it a great many times. This display fails to measure up to even the dismal quality standards of today. It should be avoided.

Ergonomic disaster

First, the controls on the bezel are so exceptionally difficult to see that one must shine a bright light on them to make them out at all. Second, their location and sensitivity mean that you must make a constant conscious effort to keep your hand and arm well clear of that part of the display when using the touch feature. Third, once the display is in use, it disables its own power switch. Given the bizarre over-sensitivity of the bezel-mounted controls, this may actually be a necessity as much as an inconvenience. Overall? Badly designed. I strongly recommend against this display.

Can this be used in Portrait (vertical) mode?
Asked by: ALVIN
Thanks Geoffrey. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't voiding the warranty by using the monitor in portrait mode. I know some monitors will specifically say that they can be mounted in both portrait or landscape modes. With other monitors, mounting incorrectly could block ventilation and shorten the lifespan.
