Calibrating the Touchscreen
Calibrating the touchscreen ensures that it is aligned with your display. The
monitor’s touchscreen is calibrated before leaving Parker-CTC. However,
you may need to recalibrate the touchscreen in certain circumstances, such
as:
•
Using the XP PowerStation for the first time
•
Connecting the XP PowerStation to a new computer
•
Using a remote, stand-alone configuration, or
•
Whenever the cursor does not follow the touches on the screen.
•
After reflashing an image to a compact flash card.
