Touch Screens and Whiteboards

The Pointmaker CPN-5000 is engineered for use with many touch screens or
interactive whiteboards sold by other manufacturers. Contact Boeckeler Instru-
ments for compatibility information.

In general, you use the touch screen to draw, position pointers, or make menu
selections. The broad definition of the areas (or zones) on the touch screen are
listed below.

Calibrating the touch screen enhances the intuitive feel of drawing on the dis play.
It’s essential to do a rough calibration the first time you start the unit after connect-
ing the touch screen. This gives you enough control to activate the menu and do a
complete calibration. (see Calibrating CPN-5000 Controllers, on page 10).
