SetReportProperties (21H)
Command Description
The SetReportProperties (21H) command acts in conjunction with the 
SetReportTransferMode (22H) command to control under what 
conditions the touch system generates reports.
Note
This command is not implemented in the GW DSP Serial 
Controller firmware. The reporting mode for all SFP-II functions 
except GetTouchState (01H) is set to Solicited Only Mode and 
cannot be changed. The reporting mode for GetTouchState (01H) 
can be set to Solicited Only Mode, Parameter Change Mode, or 
Continuous Mode using SetTouchModes (20H).
The SetReportProperties (21H) command sets the reporting mode for 
individual SFP-II functions via the ReportingMode parameter. The 
available reporting modes are:
Solicited Only Mode -  The touch system only sends the selected 
report in response to having received the 
corresponding command.
Parameter Change Mode- The touch system sends the selected 
report both in response to having received 
the corresponding command and 
whenever any of the parameters 
contained in the report changes.
Continuous Mode -  The touch system sends the selected 
report in response to having received the 
corresponding command and each time 
that it executes its main executive loop.
Parameter Change Mode and Continuous Mode produce “unsolicited 
reports,” because reports are sent by the touch system when other 
conditions occur, without the corresponding SFP-II command having 
been received.
The SetReportProperties (21H) command is an overloaded command.
• If the host sends only the SetReportProperties (24H) command 
number and the report number for a report, the report properties of 
that report are not modified and the Report Properties Report is 
sent to report the current report properties of the selected report.
