Commissioning • Touch screen calibration

3. Touch screen calibration

B&R touch screen devices are equipped with a touch controller, which supports hardware
calibration. This means that the devices are pre-calibrated from stock (pre-calibration). This
feature proves advantageous in the case of a replacement part because a new calibration is no
longer required when exchanging devices (identical model / type). Nevertheless, we recommend
calibrating the device in order to achieve the best results and to better readjust the touch screen
to the user's preferences.
Regardless of this, the touch screen driver requires calibration following installation.
3.1 Windows CE
Windows CE starts the touch screen calibration sequence during its first boot in the default
configuration / delivered state.
3.2 Windows XP Embedded
After first starting Windows XP embedded (First Boot Agent), the touch screen driver must be
installed in the device in order to operate the touch screen. The corresponding drivers can be
downloaded from the download area on the B&R homepage (www.br-automation.com). The
touch screen should be calibrated while installing the driver.
3.3 Automation Runtime / Visual Components
The first time the touch screen is used, it must be calibrated once in the customer application for
the existing device and project.
