The Multiple Devices function displays the same image on two or more monitors.
Requirements
Before using the Multiple Monitors function, you need the following:
1. A display card that supports Dual Monitors such as the Matrox, nVidia, ATI, etc.,
or that outputs into a 1-into-2 VGA signal box
2. Two or more touch screens
3. Two or more serial ports or USB ports
4. Two or more PenMount 9000 control boards such as the 9036, 9026, 9084, or
90A4, or PenMount 5000 control boards such as the 5184 or 51A5
5. If using the PenMount 9000 control board the driver must be the PenMount 9000
Windows 2000/XP v4.01 or greater software driver
6. If using the PenMount 5000 control board the driver must be for Windows
2000/XP/2000/XP/CE
9000 Control Boards
To use multiple devices with 9000 Control Boards:
1. Configure your computer hardware.
2. Attach each 9000 Control Board to a different computer’s serial port.
3. Install the appropriate PenMount software driver in each computer.
4. Use each driver’s Calibration function to calibrate each computer’s touch screen.
You must calibrate each touch screen before configuration is complete.
Rotation
There are currently a number of software packages on the market that support rotating
monitors 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°. However, you will not be able to use a touch screen
unless it is matched to the appropriate rotation. Our rotation configuration function allows
you to easily match the touch screen when you rotate your monitor.
If you use a rotating monitor, you will need a display card such as from nVidia, Intel, SMI
or ATI and software such as Portrait Pivot Pro. For software operation and features,
please refer to your software manual.
Configuring the rotation function is easy. Select this option and a ‘point’ appears for you
