C. HOW TO INSTALL PENMOUNT DOS DRIVERS TO YOUR COMPUTER
========================================================
1. Before Installation
----------------------
o PenMount touch screen RS-232 connector is 9-pin D-sub connector.
o Plug into the COM port of PC. (e.g COM1, COM2, COM3 or COM4)
2. Install PenMount DOS driver
------------------------------
Step 1 Uncompress the driver package. (e.g. C:\TEMP)
Step 2 Change the working directory. (e.g. cd \TEMP)
Step 3 Run the installation program 'install.exe" at DOS prompt.
Step 4 The install.exe will lead you to complete the installation.
Step 5 Restart computer (Recommanded)
or
press 'ESC' key and issue 'SET PENMOUNT=<penmount_installation_path>' at DOS prompt.
Step 6 The PenMount driver will be loaded after restarting computer.
3. Environment Variable - PENMOUNT
----------------------------------
The environment variable, PENMOUNT, is needed for PenMount driver v2.0.
The installation program will put the command line 'SET PENMOUNT=<penmount_install_path>'
into the AUTOEXEC.BAT, like :
SET PENMOUNT=C:\PM2 (e.g. PenMount installation path is C:\PM2)
The driver can't be loaded, if the enviroment variable is not configured properly
and the utility can't be run. Issue the command 'set' at DOS prompt to check the
environment variable.
4. Environment Variable - PATH
------------------------------
The installation program will put the installation path into the environment
PATH. You can run program in any working directory at DOS prompt regardless of
where the working directory is.
=============================
D. HOW TO USE PENMOUNT IN DOS
=============================
1. PM2 Panel
------------
Run the batch file 'PM2.EXE'. Type the command at DOS prompt:
PM2
Before runnugn PM2, you must remove PenMount driver or another
mouse driver, if you're installed.
There are several functions to select, and the launch key is
in brackets. (e.g. press '2' key to do calibration)
Use <arrow key> (up/down) to select, and <Enter> to launch
(1) Draw
(2) Calibrate
(3) Detect
(4) Configure
(5) Packet
(6) Help
(7) Exit
2. Draw
-------
Run the 'Draw' in PM2 Panel, and using the arrow keys or hot keys(A~Y) to

----------------------------------
There are several function keys in the drawing screen :
[ESC] - exit
[Space] - clear screen and information
[F1] - help, list the function keys
[F2] - style, toggle line or dot.
Line mode is default.
Dot mode is that don't draw line between dot and next dot.
[F3] - frame, show / hide the frame
[F4] - hide, show / hide the status bar at bottom of screen

rainbow, blue, green, cyan, red, magenta, brown, lightgray,
darkgray, lightblue, lightgreen, lightcyan, lightred,
lightmagenta, yellow and white.
[F6] - highlight, highlight the dot in the line mode.
[F9] - camera, you can get the snapshot, and store it in bitmap file (BMP).
The filename is 'PM<HHMMSS>.BMP', <HHMMSS> is hour, minute
and second. The resoltion of bitmap file is the same as video
mode, and the color depth is 4 bits.(16colors)
Status bar :
640x480 - screen resolution (320x200, 640x480....etc)
S: - number of dots were received per second.
pen - pen color
P: - the counter of received dots
D: - the counter of pen down
U: - the counter of pen up
(x,y) - current coordinate of dot
x:y: - minimum value of coordinate
X:Y: - maximum value of coordinate
3. Calibrate
------------
Run the 'Calibrate' in PM2 Panel, and choose one of 25 video modes.
It's to adjust the touch screen mapping properly to display screen.
The display will ask you to select video mode number, select by
keyboard your display mode to start the calibration.
Touch the upper point, then touch the right point, bottom point and
left point, and press <Enter> key to pass the point. After calibration,
the calibrated data will be showed in the screen.
After calibration, we recommand you to do drawing test to verify
the touch screen and monitor mapped properly.

<offset> : the offset between last dot
Function Key:
[ESC] - exit
6. Help
-------
See 'README.TXT' file
7. Test
-------
Before test, you must check the driver is loaded.
<1> To test program is named 'MOUSETST.EXE' ,
You can run it with parameter:
MOUSETST 18
The parameter is video mode number:
mode 18 (12h) : 640x480x16color
mode 19 (13h) : 320x240x256color
....
or run
