Pointer Interface (Mouse, Trackball, or Touchscreen)

The VGB board supports a standard Microsoft serial mouse-protocol compatible
pointer. The pointer input uses a standard 9-pin D-sub connector. The pointer
interface is serial, not parallel. Pin assignments for the Pointer connector are
shown in Table
ELO TouchSystems protocol. When installing a touchscreen, disconnect the
trackball or mouse. Only one pointing device is usable at a time. This port
operates at 1200bps. See
configuration and compatibility.
