The USB Capacitive Touch Button Pads offer a demonstration and development platform for implementing button interactivity and LED controls. Two models are available: a 4a 4-button (BP200) and an 11an 11-button (BP900) touch pad (see https://www.brightsign.biz/brightsign-players/accessories/ for more information). Both models have a USB Mini-B port and are compatible with any BrightSign player that supports USB.

Button triggering and functionality is easily customized in BrightAuthor and BrightAuthor:connected. You can also connect multiple button pads to a single player: see this Tech Note for details.

If you are covering the buttons with other materials:

  • The material must be ¼” or thinner; if too thick a plastic is used, the buttons will not trigger. Acrylic, PC, and ABS surfaces have all been verified to work. 

  • There must not be an air gap between any material you're using to cover the board and the board itself. 

The device self-calibrates on bootup and is not manually adjusted in the player software or hardware, so test your application before deploying it broadly.
