8 Controlling digitisers

To control a digitiser whilst it is running, either right-click on the

digitiser's entry in the list to the left of Scream!'s main window (not the
Local or Comxx icons) and click Control…, or simply double-click the
entry. Scream! will then contact the digitiser and retrieve its current

status (a process which will take a few seconds), after which the
Control window will be displayed. Once you are happy with any
changes you have made in the Control window, click

to send

them to the digitiser, where they will take effect immediately.

If you cannot find the setting you want in the Control window, it may

be because the digitiser needs to reboot after a change. Look in the
Configure window instead.

8.1 System

When the Control window is first opened, it will be showing the
System pane.

Sensor Type : If the sensor attached to the digitiser requires mass
control, you can send control commands to it from the Mass Control

tab (see below). Which functions are available on this tab depends on
the Sensor Type you have set on the System tab.
