CHAPTER 2

Setting up Your M2256PW Multi-touch Display

This chapter describes how to set up your 3M Touch Systems M2256PW Multi-touch Display. You need to complete the following tasks:

Unpack the components

Connect the video, touch display cables, and power cables

Power on the display and test your setup

If you are not running Windows 7 (or Tablet PC), install MT7 software from the enclosed CD. Note that this will not make multitouch happen -- it is up to your application to enable multitouch.

System Requirements

The M2256PW Multi-touch Display requires a personal computer (PC). The requirements for your PC are as follows:

Your PC must have an available USB or RS-232 serial communication (COM) port. You connect the touch sensor cable to this port.

Your PC must have a video card and video driver already installed for the display. If you need to install a video card or a video driver, refer to your computer documentation for instructions.

When choosing your workspace, select a sturdy, level surface. Also, make sure you can easily access the back of the touch display and the computer. Easy access helps ensure a smooth setup of the touch display.

Note: Before setting up your M2256PW Multi-touch Display, refer to the “Important Safety Information” section at the beginning of this document.
