OSD TOUCH SCREEN SUPPORT
(Optional)
OSD Touch Screen support enables the user to connect a 3M MicroTouch touch screen monitor with EX
II 8000SR Controller to
the NODEMUX and control the connections to the CPUs attached to the NODEMUX by pressing a finger, pencil, or any other
small object to the screen of a touch-screen monitor. To configure the NODEMUX to use a touch screen monitor the user must
first use Touch Maintenance Mode.
Touch Maintenance Mode
Touch Maintenance Mode is available from the Command Mode
menu if the touch screen support option has been built into the
NODEMUX. Touch Maintenance Mode is used to communicate the
operating values of the connected touch screen monitor to the
NODEMUX, and to synchronize the cursor position between the
monitor and each connected CPU.
Figure 18- Command Mode-Touch Enabled
Touch Maintenance Mode is accessible from the Command Mode main menu by pressing <Ctrl> + <O> provided the touch
screen monitor is installed as described in step 7 on page 8. The Touch Maintenance Mode menu (see Fig. 22) includes the
following selections:
A- Align the cursor
R- Reset the NODEMUX to the default values
L- OSD entry method
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to reset the NODEMUX to the default operating values of the Touch Screen
monitor connected each time a new touch screen monitor is connected to the NODEMUX for the first time,
BEFORE the connected CPUs are powered ON, even if the monitor changed is the same model number as the
monitor it replaces. Once these values are reset, the procedure for aligning the cursor for each host (CPU) will need to
be followed in order to use the touch screen feature with each connected CPU (see "Align The Cursor" on page 20).
