Chapter 2: Installing the monitor

To import the standard TouchSurround definition for Windows NT 4.0 and

Windows 9X operating systems, follow these steps:

1.Select the Windows Start button, select Programs, and then select Command Prompt.

2.At the command prompt, type

￿CD\TOUCH\NT for Windows NT

￿CD\TOUCH\W9X for Windows 9X

3.Type TOUCHINI /i350.ini

where 350.ini is the standard button definition file.

(Note: There is a space between TOUCHINI and the forward slash.)

The standard TouchSurround button configuration takes effect the next time you start Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 9X operating systems.

Customizing drivers

Some of the driver features that can be customized include double touch settings, touch screen sensitivity, and beep on touch. For instructions on how to customize driver features, refer to the appropriate software guide (see “Software guides” on page 2).

Step 6: SetBacklights saver
“backlights saver”

You can extend the life of the monitor’s backlights (and conserve power)

and “safe touch”

by setting the host computer’s energy saver to “turn off the monitor” after

 

a specified number of minutes of inactivity. The energy saver (which is, in

 

effect, a backlights saver) is adjusted in the Display Properties dialog box

 

of Windows XP, 2000, and 9X operating systems.

 

Windows NT 4.0 operating system does not have an energy saver, so if the

 

host computer is running with Windows NT 4.0 operating system, the

 

backlights will be on whenever the unit is powered up (even if the

 

Windows NT 4.0 operating system screen saver is set to display a blank

 

screen).

 

Safe touch

 

This setting changes the way the touch screen responds when the user

 

touches the screen to reactivate the monitor following a period when the

 

backlights have been off.

 

With a safe touch setting applied, the user will not accidentally activate a

 

touch screen button on the part of the screen that is touched.
