Installation of the USB Driver
Function
The control software provides the following functionality.
• Supplies a software interface for application programs that simulates the output of a mouse. This is achieved by
converting touch panel output data into that which is compatible with the protocol used by the Microsoft serial
mouse input.
This makes it possible to operate existing applications and develop new applications employing the touch panel
as if it were a mouse.
• Enables the changing of touch panel operation settings by using the touch panel setting program.
Operating environment
Personal computer PC/AT compatible machine (DOS/V machine)
Models equipped with a USB port and CD-ROM drive

• The touch panel and control software can be used simultaneously without mutual interference with any pointing
device that does not use the serial port, such as a PS/2 mouse.
• Before installing the control software, the COM port address and interrupts must be set correctly, and the COM
port must be operating correctly.
• You cannot use this software simultaneously with applications that use the COM port (such as hyper terminal).
• If you use this software with applications that require large amounts of CPU time (for example, playing movie
files), problems may be encountered with their operation, such as missing movie frames or delays in mouse
pointer tracking.
