call the TAPI driver software interrupt and read the registers as
described in the “Returns” section for that function.
The following example illustrates how to call TAPI functions:
int SendSmartFrameCommand (char command, int
TAPI_sw_int)
{
union REGS regs;
regs.x.ax = 1;
regs.h.bh = 0;
regs.h.bl = 0x32;
int86 (0x55, &regs, &regs);
if (regs.x.cx)
return (1);
return (0);
} /* SendSmartFrameCommand */
Touch System Initialization Using a TAPI Driver
To initialize the touch system using a TAPI driver, send the following
functions and commands in this order:
1. Call Reset (0).
2. Call SendCommand (1), with the Software_Reset (3CH) as the
Smart-Frame command (
BL
= 3CH). If SendCommand returns a
nonzero value in
CX
, abort the routine.
3. Wait at least 100 ms.
4. Call SendCommand (1), with Report_Transfer_On (44H) as the
Smart-Frame command (
BL
= 44H).
5. Call SendCommand (1), using Get_Error_Report (32H).
6. Call GetReports (2), which loads the report into the report buffer
pointed to by
BX
and
DX
.
7. Read the Error Report out of the buffer. If there are no errors, the
report reads
F8 00 FF
.
At this point you may set the desired touch mode using SendCommand
(1) with the appropriate Smart-Frame Protocol command, then turn on
scanning by using SendCommand (1) with a Touch_Scanning_On
(2AH) command. The touch system is now initialized.
