Hardware Touch Mode Setting
Changing the hardware touch mode setting can optimize the
performance of the touchscreen. In Pen and Finger mode, the
TouchPen controller checks for input from either a pen or a finger.
The controller always gives priority to the pen. If you are not
currently using the pen for your touch application, use Finger Only
mode for optimum system performance.
Communication Rate
The standard baud rate for MicroTouch controllers is 9600. This rate
is generally acceptable for most applications. However, if you are
using a pen, the best baud rate depends on your application and your
system.
For example, the 19200 baud rate is intended for use with character
recognition systems that require high pen data rates. However,
systems that cannot handle the higher data rates seen from the pen may
result in degraded pen performance. To improve performance on
these systems, select a slower baud rate.
To change the baud rate for the touchscreen controller, use the
Microcal utility. To change the baud rate for the touchscreen driver,
use the Hardware Controls dialog box in the Touchscreen Control
program.
For more information about using Microcal, refer to Chapter 4. For
more information about the Hardware Controls dialog box, refer to
Chapter 2.
Double-Click Speed
The double-click speed defines how quickly you must tap or touch the
screen for the system to interpret your actions as a double-click. If
you are using Pen and Finger mode, set the double-click speed in the
slow to medium range for optimum performance. To change the
double-click speed, open the Touchscreen Control program and select
User Controls. For more information, refer to Chapter 2.
