Introduction
Electroluminescent Touch Panels
can also use TPDOC software to upload drawings for use with Touch Panel pages.
Refer to the TPDOC User's Manual for more information.
The Touch Panel uses the AXlink 4-wire bus to connect to the AXCESS Server and
Master Cards or to the AXCENT system. Your computer connects to one of the RS-
232 ports on the AXCESS system or to the program port on the AXCENT system.
Additionally, for developing and controlling Touch Panel pages, you can connect an
optional Microsoft or Logitech mouse to the Touch Panel RS-232 port.
When you select MOUSE from the protected setup page, the data rate is
automatically set to 1,200 baud. You can set the data rate for your computer or other
RS-232 device as described in
