Testing the C1500SS Display

After connection, the display will switch on automatically. Before you test your touch display, make sure all cables are connected properly. Be sure to tighten all cable screws.

To test that the display is working properly:

1.Turn on your computer.

2.Make sure the video image is displayed. If it is not, check the LED to ensure that the display is not in power save mode (flashing orange/red). If the LED is not on, turn on your display.

3.Make sure the video image is centered within the screen area. Use the display controls to adjust the image, if necessary.

You can adjust the horizontal and vertical position, contrast, and brightness to better suit your video card and your personal preference. Refer to Chapter 4 for more information on using the on-screen menu to adjust the video display.

MicroTouch software includes the touch driver and control panel that enables your touch sensor to work with your computer. Once the software is installed, restart your computer to load and activate the touch driver. To complete the setup of your display, make sure you calibrate the touch sensor.

Calibrating the Touch Sensor

After you connect your touch display and install MicroTouch software, you must calibrate the touch sensor. Calibration serves two purposes:

•Sets the active area of the touch sensor

•Aligns the touch sensor’s active area to the underlying video

To calibrate the touch sensor, open the touch sensor control panel and select Calibrate. Follow the directions displayed on the screen. For more information on calibration, refer to the online help or the user documentation.
