About Your Touch Screen Software
Dell provides touch screen software that allows your touchmonitor to work with your computer. Drivers are located on the CD included with your monitor. The
Dell Xpu driver supports the E157FPT Touch screen Monitor. While the touch screen software supports both Windows XP and Windows 2000, this manual uses
the terminology and descriptions for Windows XP in cases where Windows XP and Windows 2000 differ.
The Dell Touch Screen Software package contains:
l
Native 32-bit drivers, for both serial and USB touch screen controllers, designed for Microsoft Windows XP and Windows 2000.
l
Touch screen software to set your preferences for the touchmonitor. For example, you can define the following preferences:
l
Whether the touch action occurs when you touch the screen or when you lift your finger (or pen) off the screen.
l
Whether you hear a sound when you touch the screen.
l
How fast you need to touch to produce a double-click.
l
A Video Alignment (calibration) utility, that lets you calibrate the touch screen directly without opening the Touch screen software control panel.
l
A Touch screen Software Uninstall utility that automatically deletes all Touch screen software components from your computer and removes all Touch
screen software entries from the system files.
