Not sure about the definition of easy to find, but I ended up ordering this monitor on the Masso list from the People s Republic through Alibaba Express for $168US including shipping a couple months ago:


Note that it s an open frame monitor, intended for installation in a control panel, not a stand-alone desktop unit. Works great with the Masso controller.

It was just a matter of connecting a VGA cable and a USB cable between the monitor and the Masso controller, plugging the power adapter to the wall and into the power jack on the monitor and turning the monitor on.

Once all that s complete, just turn on Masso and you re done. Works with mouse or touch screen.

I think I might have had to fiddle with mine to get the touch screen to work because my USB cable was damaged on one end, but otherwise, it s as easy as it can be to get this touch screen monitor working with Masso.

Until now, how well has the Masso control worked with the touch screen? It is very difficult for me to find good topics about this on the internet, as their web positioning isnt the best

As I am in the final stages of building this machine, my experience with this touch screen thus far has been limited to jogging and zeroing axis , changing jog resolution, etc; You know F3 screen stuff. Seems to work as expected no issues so far.

Just came across a YouTube video where this exact monitor is in use with a masso controller, beginning at about 4:19
