Driver Software Installation

To install the Serial Mouse Control Driver software, download the self-extracting zip file
from the What's New page (Touchpanels section) or Downloads page (TOUCHPNL Library)
of Crestron's website (www.crestron.com). New users are required to register in order to
obtain access to the FTP site. Search for TPAD*.EXE. TPAD*.EXE will create two folders,
UPDD (Universal Pointer Device Driver) and UPDD Playback Utility, plus the PDF version
of this programmer's guide.
CAUTION: Crestron's licensed version of the UPDD is based upon the manufacturers
default settings. With the exception of name of pointer device and COM port selection, DO
NOT change default settings during setup. If altered, the settings cannot be reset and the
driver software must be uninstalled then re-installed. Reinstallation of Microsoft
may also be necessary.
