Calibration Guide for Touch Screen Monitor
Basic 4 point Touch Screen Monitor Calibration process
1. After the Driver has been installed correctly The Touch Screen monitor panel has to be calibrated before the touch screen
panel will work correctly with your computer.
2. To do this open the Touch Kit software which can be found in the Program Files or by double clicking the icon on the
desktop, click on the “Tools” tab and press on the “4 Point Calibration” button, a new window will pop-up showing you
the guide in order to perform the 4 point calibration process (as shown below).
Calibrating the Touch Screen

9
3. Please follow the guide on your monitor screen to touch and hold the blinking Xsymbol in the calibration window until it
stops blinking. This will assure that the utility can gather essential location data for computation to take place. You may
notice that a time line bar is shown in the bottom of the window to indicate the time elapsed from the moment you touch
the X. If you do not touch the X on the screen before the time line bar finishes going from left to right across the bottom of
the screen the calibration task will be terminated and you will have to repeat this step.
4. If during regular touch screen operation you see that the location of the touch spot is lost, you can re-calibrate the monitor
using this process.
Touch the blinking symbol on the panel until it beeps or stops blinking.
Touch Screen Monitor Linearization process
1. We suggest that you use the 9 or 25 point Linearization Style function if you plan to use a commercial software application,
to assure the most accurate performance of the monitor to the touch points on the screen.
2. The Linearization (9 or 25 points calibration) function is used to coordinate the Touch screen horizontally and vertically
across the monitor screen. After the linearization process is completed, the linearity of the touch screen will be shown in
the Linearity curve window.
3. To select the 9 or 25 point calibration open the Touch Kit software, click on the “Settings” tab select the linearization style
of 9 or 25 points and then click on the “Tools” tab and press on the “Linearization” button, a new window will pop-up
showing you the guide in order to perform the 9 or 25 points calibration process (as shown below).
Select the Linearization Style. Click on the “Linearization” button.
4. Pressing this button, a new window will pop-up at the location where the touch screen was mapped to show this area in
order to guide the user to perform the 25 point calibration. You should follow the guide to touch and hold the blinking X
symbol in the calibration window until it does not blink to make sure that the utility can gather enough data for computation.
In addition, a time line bar is shown at the bottom of the window to indicate time elapsed. If the touch screen was not
touched before the time line bar finishes moving from left to right , the calibration task will be terminated automatically.

10
Draw Test
This function is used for an accuracy and performance check. Draw straight lines with your finger tip to see if the
touch screen is recording your touch contact points in the exact location. If the location is off, please redo the
Linearization process. Press this button and a new pop up window will open in the location where the touch screen
was mapped to the touch system as below:
You can press the Clear Button to clear the window. Press the Quit Button to terminate the draw test. By using this test
window, you can verify the panel linearity, calibration capability, and drawing line quality.
Mouse Emulator
The Touch Screen driver emulates the function of a computer mouse left and right button click function. After installing the
touch panel driver, a Mouse Icon will appear on the computer monitor desktop.
1. You can change the right / left button by clicking the upper small rectangular box of the mouse icon. The Red area will show
you which button has been selected.
2. The Touch Screen driver also provides an option for advanced Mouse Emulation settings. When the user enables the “Auto
Right Button”, it will tell the driver to report a right click mouse event to the computer operating system when you hold your
touch until time has run out. You will no longer need to touch the right button in the Touch tray to activate a right click. This
feature allows you to perform a Right Click with greater ease on the Touch screen monitor.
3. To remove Mouse Emulator right click on TouchKit icon in the menu bar (see arrow) a menu will open. Uncheck the flag on
“Display Button” by clicking on it with your mouse. Menu will close. To return Mouse Emulator repeat process.
