Before installing the Windows 2000/XP driver software, you must have the Windows
2000/XP system installed and running on your computer. You must also have the 9036

Windows 2000/XP driver folder are listed below:
DMC9000.inf
DMC9000.sys
DMC9000.cat
SETUP.EXE
If you have an older version of the PenMount Windows 2000/XP driver installed in your
system, please remove it first. Follow the steps below to install the PenMount Windows
2000/XP driver.
1. When the system first detects the controller board, a screen appears that shows
“Unknown Device”. Do not use this hardware wizard. Press Cancel.

2. Insert the PenMount Driver CD-ROM. Go to the Windows 2000-XP Driver folder.
Click setup.exe.

3.2 Configuring the PenMount Windows 2000/XP Driver

Calibrate
This function offers two ways to calibrate your touch screen. “Standard Calibration”
adjusts most touch screens. “Advanced Calibration” adjusts aging touch screens.
Standard Calibration Click this button and arrows appear pointing to red
squares. Use your finger or stylus to touch the red
squares in sequence. After the fifth red point
calibration is complete. To skip, press ‘ESC’.
Advanced Calibration Advanced Calibration uses 4, 9, 16 or 25 points to
effectively calibrate touch panel linearity of aged
touch screens. Click this button and touch the red
squares in sequence with a stylus. To skip, press
‘ESC’.

NOTE: The older the touch screen is, the more Advanced Mode calibration points you need
for an accurate calibration. Use a stylus during Advanced Calibration for greater
accuracy.
