The SmartSet controllers can emulate other Elo controllers. Emulation can be
partial or full.
When Touch Packet Emulation is enabled, only the touch data output format is
changed to that of the selected controller (partial emulation). The SmartSet
controllers will still respond to the SmartSet command set when Touch Packet
Emulation is enabled. Other controller parameters may still be changed, such as the
Touch Mode and Scaling.
Full Emulation can only be selected through jumper settings (see page 16). In Full
Emulation Mode, the SmartSet controllers will not respond to SmartSet
commands. Instead, they will respond to the commands of the emulated controller
(if applicable).
TouchFlag is an ASCII value of '1' to include touch/untouch information in some
formats, and '0' to not include the information.
Format is a byte in the range of 0-7. ASCII '0' to ASCII '7' may also be used.
The following combinations of TouchFlag and Format specify the indicated
output formats. A page reference is given within Appendix A where the output
format is described.
