An electronic processing apparatus comprises one or more remote interactive display devices and a calculator unit, wherein the display device comprises at least a screen, a connector selectively connectable to the calculator unit, a user interface device and a microprocessor, whereas the calculator unit comprises at least one or more connectors, able to be selectively connected to the connector, a processor and a non-volatile memory. There is also a single connection element able to connect the connector and a selected one of the connectors of the calculator unit, both for data exchange and also for the transfer of energy for electric feed. The display device, through the connection element is able at least to transmit, through the connector, information relating to the own functioning parameters thereof to the calculator unit, which are compared with predetermined information recorded in the non-volatile memory so as to identify and select the functioning parameters of the display device and to obtain an automatic configuration of the display device.

An electronic processing apparatus comprising one or more remote interactive display devices and a calculator unit, wherein the display device comprises at least a screen, a connector selectively connectable to the calculator unit, a user interface device and a microprocessor;
A method for the autonomous configuration of the functioning parameters of one or more remote interactive display devices and/or a calculator unit of an electronic processing apparatus, wherein said method provides a step of connecting the display device to the calculator unit by means of a single connection element by means of which said calculator unit both provides energy for the electric feed to the display device and also receives and transmits data from/to the display device, and a step of automatic configuration in which said display device, at the moment of connection between one of its own connectors and the connection element, transmits information relating to the own functioning parameters thereof to the calculator unit, said calculator unit comparing the information received with predetermined information recorded therein and, according to the results of the comparison, identifies the desired functioning parameters of the display device and selects the related functioning parameters of the calculator unit required to manage the, and communicate with, the display device, in order to obtain an automatic configuration of the display device.
