Tools
The Tools property page provides the following information and functions.
NOTE: Your touch screen is configured and calibrated at the factory. However, if you notice that the
calibration is not as precise as you would like, you can use the 4 Points Calibration and/or the
Linearization tool to provide a more accurate alignment of the touch screen.
• Graph of the Linearization Curve of the touch screen: For reference and troubleshooting
purposes. See its usage in the discussion of the Linearization function.
• 4 Points Calibration: Calibration aligns the touch panel with the video screen. The touch
screen must be calibrated to allow for positional accuracy of the stylus or finger touch inputs.
• Clear and Calibrate: Clears the calibration/linearization parameters and allows you to
perform the 4 points calibration again.
• Linearization (9 or 25 points linearization is set within the Setting tab): The linearization
function provides for more precise mapping of the stylus or finger touch inputs. After
