The Touchscreen Control Panel program, ELOCAL2.EXE, is a Presentation
Manager application for calibrating the touchscreen and setting various options.
See Figure 2-1.
Add the \ELO\ELOCAL2.EXE program to the System Setup Folder and label the
icon "Touchscreen". This is accomplished as follows:
1. Open the OS/2 System folder, then System Setup.
2. Open the Templates folder.
3. Drag the Program template with the right mouse button into the System Setup
folder. A Settings notebook will be displayed.
4. Enter "C:\ELO\ELOCAL2.EXE" as the Path and file name. Enter "C:\ELO" as
the Working directory.
5. Select the General tab. Change the Title to "Touchscreen".
6. Close the notebook.
See your OS/2 documentation for detailed instructions on installing new
applications.

ALIBRATE THE
T
OUCHSCREEN
Double-click the Touchscreen icon with the mouse (as the touchscreen may not be
calibrated yet), or use the keyboard if the mouse is not connected. You may also
run ELOCAL2.EXE from an OS/2 Window prompt.
Select Calibrate and follow the on-screen instructions. After calibrating, the
touchscreen will work like the mouse. The DEVICE=MONMOUxx command in
CONFIG.SYS is updated with the new calibration points (-c flag). The calibration
points are then set automatically each time the system is started. Recalibration
should only be necessary after moving or resizing the video image, or after
changing either the touchscreen, controller, or monitor.
Close the Touchscreen Control Panel. (Other options in the Touchscreen Control
Panel are described in the next chapter.)
