Is your unit tower (significant visual attention required outside) or radar?
One of the things I've noticed at the tower I work at is that inputting data on the EFS - particularly if multiple dialogue boxes need to be used - is that it is very possible to get "bogged down" in that, at the expense of a visual scan. This is particularly true if you're a couple of millimeters out in where the scribe touches the screen, resulting in unwanted/incorrect dialogue windows.
The screen forces the operator to process data in a serial rather than holistic function, which is often at odds with the mindset traditionally used for ADC operations.
