Enabling Your 3M Multi-Touch Chassis
Display
Windows® 7 or Higher
The 3M Multi-Touch Chassis Display is compatible with Windows® 7 or higher with
no additional software. Refer to Microsoft's Windows documentation for additional
information.
All Other Platforms (All OS versions prior to Windows® 7)
When using a Windows® 7 serial connection or for Windows® XP, Vista or Linux
operating systems (either USB or serial) or an operating system that does not support
native touch, 3M provides 3M MicroTouch™ MT 7 Software for multi-touch drivers.
For information on writing your own drivers to interface with the 3M Multi-Touch
Technology, refer to the PCT Controller Reference Guide.
Multi-Touch Application Support
Remember not all applications are multi-touch ready – Multi-touch behavior is a
function of YOUR application. Check with your application vendor to determine if
your software has multi-touch capability.
Installing 3M™ MicroTouch™ Software
Remember that Windows® 7 or higher does not require any additional software to
enable multi-touch functionality.
However, for Windows® XP, Vista or Linux® operating systems, 3M™
MicroTouch™ Software enables your 3M Multi-Touch Chassis Display to work with
your computer. 3M™ MicroTouch™ Software includes a control panel for setting
your touch sensor preferences and a diagnostic utility. If you are experiencing
problems with the touch sensor, you can use the diagnostic utilities provided to test
the system.
For additional information on 3M MicroTouch Software, please refer to the MT7
User's Guide.
