HOW TO INSTALL THE TOUCH SCREEN SOFTWARE ------------------------------------------- The software supports multiple touch screen controllers and thus the installation procedure will vary slightly depending on the controller being installed. The biggest differences observed are between PnP (Plug-and-Play) controllers and those that require manual configuration. Installing a PnP Controller --------------------------- Because the touch screen controller uses Plug and Play hardware, installation of the touch screen software is easy and quick. To install, follow these steps: 1. Insert the PnP ISA card into your machine (make sure it is turned off first!). Power on the machine and start up Windows 95. 2. During Windows 95 startup, a prompt dialog will appear on the screen with the title "New Hardware Found". This indicates that Windows 95 has detected the PnP ISA card. Note: The A-B PnP PC2 card actually contains two devices, the second one being the touch screen controller. Skip over the first device by selecting "Do not install a driver..." and then selecting "OK" to continue (or Next and then Finish - if using Win/95 Service Pack Two). 3. Another dialog with the same title will appear for the second device. This time, select "Driver from disk provided by hardware manufacturer" and then select "OK". 4. Insert the Dynapro Touch Screen Drivers Disk into diskette drive A: and select "OK" at the "Install From Disk" dialog. 5. Installation will commence. Progress will be indicated by a "Copy Files" dialog, followed by an "Updating Shortcuts" dialog. Once these two steps have finished, installation is considered complete. The "Start" menu now contains an additional entry under "Programs" called "Touch Screen Utilities". This new entry has a sub-menu containing: "Configuration", "Mouse Button Swap" and "Startup Log". Installing a non-PnP Controller ------------------------------- A) Using installation utility. 1. Insert the DTF PC2 - Touch Drivers/Utilities, Windows/95 diskette into the floppy disk drive. Then from the "Start" menu, select "Run". Enter the full path to the installation utility in the "Open" field (e.g. A:\install). You can use the "Browse" button to find the install utility. Choose OK to continue. 2. The "Dynapro Touch Screen installation" window will appear and the first dialog will display the following information: operating system, driver version, target directory and target folder. You will not be able to change any of this information. Select "Next" to proceed with the installation. 3. The next dialog will enable you to select the communication port for the Touch Screen operation. Select the desired port from the list of standard ports or define a custom port using the "Interrupts" and "I/O Address" lists. Select "Back" to go to the previous dialog, select "Cancel" to abort the installation or select "Next" to proceed with the installation. 4. The last dialog will display all the entered installation information. If you are satisfied with your choices, select "Install" to start the installation. You may be asked to specify paths to files during the installation. 5. A progress indicator displays the progress of the installation. After all files have been copied, there will be a brief pause while the system attempts to load the driver. At this point, the installation is complete. Note: "Start" menu will be updated with an additional entry under "Programs" called "Touch Screen Utilities". This new entry has a sub-menu containing: "Configuration", "Mouse Button Swap" and "Startup Log". 11. The touch screen must be calibrated after installation to ensure proper operation. Calibration ensures the touch screen is oriented and aligned with the video display. To do this use the "Configuration" item from the "Touch Screen Utilities" start sub-menu. Select "Calibration" and then "Calibrate". Follow the prompts, touching where instructed. When satisified with the calibration, choose "Ok" to both save and active the calibration points defined. B) Using "Control Panel". 1. From the "Start" menu, select "Settings" and then "Control Panel". Open the "Add New Hardware" Wizard, then select "Next". 2. You will be asked if you want Windows to search for your new hardware. Select "No" as Windows/95 will not detect the presence of the Dynapro touch controller. Select "Next". 3. The next screen will display a list of hardware categories which can be installed. Highlight the "Mouse" icon and select "Next". 4. This displays a list of mouse manufacturers and models that Windows/95 already knows about. Select "Have Disk" to ignore this list and install directly from a floppy disk. 5. Insert the Touch Drivers/Utilities, Windows/95 diskette into the floppy disk drive and select "OK" at the "Install From Disk" dialog. 6. This displays a list of touch controllers supported by the installation diskette. Select the entry corresponding to your touch controller and then select "Next". 7. Windows/95 will compare the hardware resources required against those that the controller supports and those that your computer is currently using in order to determine a configuration that can be used for the controller. Note: you must configure the touch controller hardware to conform to the configuration Windows/95 has determined. This is the configuration that both Windows/95 and the driver will be using. 8. Select "Next" to proceed with the installation. After all files have been copied, the installation is complete. Select "Finish" to exit and shut down the computer. 9. Configure the controller to match the pre-determined configuration, install it and restart Windows/95. The "Start" menu will be updated with a "Touch Screen Utilities" entry under "Programs", containing a sub-menu with "Configuration", "Mouse Button Swap" and "Startup Log". WARNING: Do not use the "General" property sheet of the "Mouse" dialog to install the driver. Files Installed --------------- The following files are placed in the \TOUCH\W95 directory: README.TXT DEFAULT.INI TOUCHCFG.EXE TOUCHCFG.HLP MBSWAP.EXE MBSWAP.HLP TOUCHINI.EXE TOUCHERR.EXE TOUCHOSI.DLL MSVCRT40.DLL XNMBA450.DLL XNMHN450.DLL XNMTE450.DLL The following files are placed in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory: VPC2D.VXD NOTE: the Touch Screen software is installed with configuration parameters set according to the default configuration. You should not need to change them. However, if you want to customize your setup, consult your User's Reference for options. 4. CALIBRATING THE TOUCH SCREEN ------------------------------- Before you can use the touch screen it must be calibrated. Calibration ensures the touch screen is oriented and aligned with your video display. To do this use the "Configuration" item from the "Touch Screen Utilities" start sub-menu. Select "Calibration" and then "Calibrate". Follow the prompts, touching where instructed. When satisified with the calibration, choose "Ok" to both save and active the calibration points defined. 5. HOW TO UPGRADE THE TOUCH SCREEN SOFTWARE ------------------------------------------- If you need to re-install the Touch Screen Drivers and Utilities, or upgrade them as the result of a new software release, then the following procedure must be followed in order to remove the existing driver from the system before the new one may be installed (via the procedure in Section 2). 1. From the "Start" menu, select "Settings" and then "Control Panel". Open the "System" icon. Select the "Device Manager" property sheet. 2. Expand the "Mouse" icon to show the devices currently installed under the Mouse class. Highlight the entry coresponding to your touch screen controller, and select "Remove". 3. A "Confirm Device Removal" dialog warns that you are about to remove this device from your system. Select "OK". 4. The Device Manager will no longer contain an entry for your touch screen controller. Select "Close" to finalize the change. You are then returned to the Control panel. 5. Proceed with the steps in section 2 to install the new touch screen software from the installation diskette. 6. CONCURRENT MOUSE AND TOUCH SCREEN OPERATION ---------------------------------------------- The Windows 95 Touch Screen driver supports concurrent mouse and touch screen operation. To facilitate this, you must ensure that an appropriate driver is installed for your mouse. The recommended way for to achieve this is via the "Add New Hardware" Wizard in the Control Panel. Connect your mouse to the computer and instruct the Wizard to search for new hardware by selecting "Yes" at the prompt on the first screen. Do NOT select "No" and manually choose a mouse driver. Once the Add New Hardware Wizard has detected your mouse and installed the appropriate mouse driver, your mouse will work concurrently with the touch screen. If the Wizard fails to detect your mouse, then it can not be used concurrently with the touch screen. A mouse that is detectable by Windows 95, such as a Microsoft or Logitech mouse is required. 7. STANDARD TOUCH SCREEN CONFIGURATIONS --------------------------------------- Included with this software is a Touch Screen Configuration Import/Export Utility (TOUCHINI.EXE). Installed with the touch screen software, this utility is located in the \TOUCH\W95 directory. The utility allows you to configure the touch screen driver by importing a file containing the configuration data into the Windows 95 Registry. It will also extract the current touch screen configuration from the Registry and write it to a file. By using the TOUCHINI utility, you can easily generate a configuration file that may be copied to other computers and then imported without requiring manual configuration of each unit. Exporting: --------- To export the current configuration from the Windows 95 Registry into a file, execute the following command from a Windows 95 DOS command prompt: TOUCHINI /o This creates a file called TOUCH.INI, which contains an ASCII representation of the touch screen configuration. You can override the default filename by specifying a file after the /o command line option (for example, "TOUCHINI /oCONFIG.INI"). This file can later be used to import the same configuration into your unit, as per the import instructions which follow. Importing: --------- Also included with this software is a default touch screen configuration file (DEFAULT.INI) located in \TOUCH\W95 directory. To import this configuration file into the Windows 95 Registry execute the following command from a Windows 95 DOS command prompt: TOUCHINI /iDEFAULT.INI The new configuration will take effect the next time you restart Windows 95. IMPORTANT: all previous touch screen configuration (except calibration) is erased during the import process. 8. UNINSTALLING THE TOUCH SCREEN DRIVER SOFTWARE ------------------------------------------------ The touch screen software can be uninstalled by removing the driver via the Control Panel- System as described in section 4. Then deleting files installed in the \TOUCH\W95 and \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directories. If desired (but optional) the software's entries in the system registry can be removed by deleting the 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Dynapro\TouchScreen' registry key. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dynapro is a registered trademark of Dynapro Systems Inc.
