STEP 4 - INSTALL THE TOUCHSCREEN CONTROL PANEL

The touchscreen control panel software program, ELOCAL2.EXE, is a presentation manager application for calibrating the touchscreen and setting various options.

Add the \ELO\ELOCAL2.EXE program to the System Setup folder and label the icon “Touchscreen”. This is accomplished as follows:

1.Open the OS/2 System folder, then System Setup.

2.Open the Templates folder.

3.Drag the Program template with the right mouse button into the System Setup folder. A Settings notebook will be displayed.

4.Enter “C:\ELO\ELOCAL2.EXE” as the path and file name. Enter “C:\ELO” as the working directory.

5.Select the "General" tab. Change the Title to “Touchscreen”.

6.Close the notebook.

See your OS/2 documentation for detailed instructions on installing new applications.

STEP 5 - CALIBRATE THE TOUCHSCREEN

Double-click the Touchscreen icon with the mouse (as the touchscreen may not be calibrated yet), or use the keyboard if the mouse is not connected. You may also run ELOCAL2.EXE from an OS/2 Window prompt.

Select "Calibrate" and follow the on-screen instructions. After calibrating, the touchscreen will work like the mouse. The DEVICE=MONMOUxx command in CONFIG.SYS is updated with the new calibration points (-c flag). The calibration points are then set automatically each time the system is started. Recalibration should only be necessary after moving or resizing the video image, or after changing either the touchscreen, controller, or monitor.

Close the touchscreen control panel.
