Setting up the PC

To use the touch panel, the touch panel driver must be installed from the supplied CD-ROM and the touch panel must be

Installing the touch panel driver

The touch panel driver is a program that enables you to use to the touch panel to operate the PC that is connected to the touch

panel. Settings for touch panel operation can also be configured.

Caution

• If an older version of the touch panel driver is installed, remove (uninstall) the old version before installing the touch panel

driver. (See page 8.)

• If you are using a USB hub, use a self-powered hub (a hub capable of supplying a 500 mA current). The touch panel will not

operate correctly if a bus-powered USB hub is used.

• Do not connect the USB cable until after you have installed the touch panel driver.

• Do not touch the touch panel when connecting the USB cable.

will result. In this case, disconnect and then reconnect the USB cable.
