Software Setup
NOTE
:
These instructions pertain to the basic models of MT550 MultiTaction
Cells, that require a separate application PC for operation. They do not apply to
the versions with an embedded computer inside.
After setting up the MultiTaction Cell on the desired physical location proceed
with the software setup.
To set up a MultiTaction Cell for operation requires operations on the Cell, and
on the application PC. The basic purpose of these operations is to get the two to
communicate with each other.
Operations on the MultiTaction Cell
To use the MultiTaction Cell with an external PC, you need to connect the Cell
and the PC to the same local area network, with an Ethernet cable (included in
the sales package). The connection is usually done via an Etherner switch. If a
switch is not desirable, the Ethernet cable can be connected directly from the PC
to the Cell.
Preparations
As a preparation for the setup, you need to connect a mouse and a keyboard to
one of the USB ports in the back of the Cell. You will also need to connect the
loopback DVI cable (coming out of the Cell) to the DVI input.
On the application computer you need to install the runtime, or SDK of Multi-
Touch Cornerstone software. The software version needs to be 1.2.0, or higher.
