Description:
Returns to the factory default operating parameters. The Restore Defaults command
copies the 3M Touch Systems factory default parameters from ROM to the non-volatile
memory (NOVRAM) and then executes a Reset command.
Table 10 lists the factory defaults for the EX II controller. The Restore Defaults
command is useful in situations where inadvertent commands to the controller have
rendered the touch screen inoperative.

application program should wait the maximum amount of time and be sure it receives the
command response before issuing another command to the controller.

screen using a 2-point calibration.
