Calibrating the Touch Screen

Although the Marathon touch screen is installed and calibrated before the Marathon is shipped, users may make adjustments
to the calibration. To calibrate the touch screen, select Start > Programs > PenMount Universal Driver > Utility >
PenMount Control Panel. On the Device tab, double-click the PenMount 6000 USB icon. On the Calibrate tab, tap either the
Standard Calibration or the Advanced Calibration button.
Advanced Calibration uses more calibration points than the Standard Calibration option.
Follow the instructions on the screen. The calibration utility displays a red square on the screen. Touch the center of the square
with the stylus and hold for a few seconds. Release and repeat with the next square. After all locations have been touched, the
calibration utility saves the settings and automatically closes.
If no input is received, the calibration utility times out. Press the ESC button to exit the calibration utility without saving any
changes.

Refresh the Touch Screen Calibration Points

Select Start > Programs > PenMount Universal Driver > Utility > PenMount Control Panel. On the Device panel, single-
click the PenMount 6000 USB icon. Click the Refresh button. The touch screen is refreshed immediately. Click OK to close
the control panel.
Note:
If when using the Intel Ultra Mobile GMA Driver and rotating the screen, the touch screen will require re-calibration for
the rotated screen touch areas. Connect and use a USB mouse, instead of screen touch, to access the control panels
needed for re-calibration.

Disabling the Touch Screen

If desired, the touch screen can be disabled in the Windows control panel. Once disabled, the touch screen remains disabled
until it is enabled again.
To disable the touch screen, access the Windows control panel and click on System > Hardware > Device Manager > Mice
and other pointing devices. There is a listing for PenMount USB Mouse. Right click on this listing and select Disable from
the Device Usage menu.
To enable the touch screen, follow the same process, selecting Enable from the right click menu.

Using a Dock and a Second Monitor

Prequisite: The Marathon is in the Dock, and a second monitor is attached to the dock. The Marathon display driver has been
setup to extend the Marathon display to the second monitor.
Use a connected USB mouse to select items on the displays. The mouse can be connected to the Marathon or the desktop
dock.
When the Marathon display driver is setup to extend the Marathon display to the second monitor, cursor calibration on the
Marathon touch display is offset. Do not use the touch panel on the Marathon to select items on the Marathon display. When a
cabled USB mouse is used, the touch screen calibration is correct.
