Setting up the VTM-D15/A touch device

The touch drivers are already part of the firmware downloaded from SoftROM but you still have to use terminal emulator to configure the touch device with the desired driver. Refer to the Programming section of the AXB-TPI/3 Touch Panel Interface 3 instruction manual for more information on the MOUSE command.

To configure the touch panel with the correct driver:

1.Verify that all devices are correctly attached (including all cables on the panel and power sources) to the AXB-TPI/3.

2.Enter ?PAR to verify that the TPI/3 characteristics are correct. The return from the TPI/3 includes these characteristics:

Version indicates the TPI/3 firmware version on the TPI/3.

Device # identifies the beginning device address for the attached touch device.

# Devices identifies the number of devices that are assigned for use through the touch panel firmware.

Output Resolution displays the horizontal, vertical, and refresh rate for the monitor connected to the TPI/3.

Mouse Type displays the mouse driver assigned for use through the TPI/3.

Cursor enabled displays whether the cursor is enabled/disabled.

Brightness displays the brightness value associated with the monitor. The ability to adjust the brightness value is not available.

Contrast displays the contrast value associated with the monitor. The ability to adjust the contrast value is not available.

Do not calibrate the TPI/3 if you are using a Microsoft® compatible mouse or a mobile mouse. Do not enter the <> when entering the values or commands.

3.Use the following command and Device IDs to set the mouse driver:
