Tip Some touchscreens work as designed only after they are calibrated manually. If your touchscreen is one of these, its
calibration occurs during a later stage of DMP setup. The list of related topics for this procedure states where you can learn
about calibration.
DMP connections to a touchscreen are mostly the same as for other digital displays. However,
touchscreens employ a special cable that supports interactivity through touch. This might be either an
RS-232 serial cable or a USB cable, depending on the touchscreen model. Although some models
support both cable types for interactivity, you can use only one type at a time.
Before You Begin
Verify that your DMP model supports touchscreen technologies and that we support the touchscreen
brand, model, and device driver that you will use.
Check the documentation for your touchscreen to learn whether it requires a serial connection or a
USB connection to your DMP, or if it supports both.
