CHAPTER 2
Setting up Your M2256PW Multi-touch Display
This chapter describes how to set up your 3M Touch Systems M2256PW Multi-touch
Display. You need to complete the following tasks:
Unpack the components
Connect the video, touch display cables, and power cables
Power on the display and test your setup
If you are not running Windows 7 (or Tablet PC), install MT7 software from the
enclosed CD. Note that this will not make multitouch happen -- it is up to your
application to enable multitouch.
System Requirements
The M2256PW Multi-touch Display requires a personal computer (PC). The
requirements for your PC are as follows:
Your PC must have an available USB or RS-232 serial communication (COM) port.
You connect the touch sensor cable to this port.
Your PC must have a video card and video driver already installed for the display. If
you need to install a video card or a video driver, refer to your computer
documentation for instructions.
When choosing your workspace, select a sturdy, level surface. Also, make sure you can
easily access the back of the touch display and the computer. Easy access helps ensure a
smooth setup of the touch display.
Note: Before setting up your M2256PW Multi-touch Display, refer to the “Important
Safety Information” section at the beginning of this document.
