Bit Pad Two 29
Chapter 5: Checking the Data Tablet
A convenient functional check of the data tablet can be performed by connecting Bit Pad
Two to a terminal and moving the cursor or stylus across the tablet’s active area. (The
output is easier to interpret if you have the report format set for ASCII BCD.) The X and Y
values should increase as the cursor or stylus slides from the tablet origin toward the end
of the axis. This is depicted in the following illustration:
Another mechanism for checking a Bit Pad Two is the Self-Test diagnostic function.
