DLoG MPC 6
6.2.
Mouse
Any PS/2-compatible mouse with a standard Mini-DIN plug, USB connector or RS-232
port can be connected to the DLoG MPC 6.
If the mouse has a PS/2 connection, a Y cable is also required.
It is not possible to use a PS/2 mouse during Touch operations, if
you use the touch controller in PS/2 mode. By default, however, the
touch controller is operated via COM4.
Of course a USB mouse or a RS-232-mouse can always be used in
combination with touch mode.
Resources for the PS/2 mouse controller are pre-defined in the system architecture and
automatically managed by the BIOS. This is also the case for RS-232 and USB mouse
devices.
Drivers for MS-DOS operation need to be supplied by the control device manufacturer
(order if necessary).
Support for the USB mouse under MS-DOS can be provided with a PS/2 driver, since
here it is managed by the BIOS.
Special functions, such as those provided by wheel mouse devices, frequently require
additional drivers, which are to be supplied by the manufacturer.
