3m Microtouch calibration problem - help needed
« on: April 30, 2010, 01:36:53 pm »
I've acquired a Kortek 17" LCD screen with 3m Microtouch, but I can't seem to get it calibrated. During the calibration setup, it gives you 3 points to touch on the screen. The first two I hit fine, but the third screws it up - when I try the drawing test screen it's way off.

Anyone else here with a 3m Microtouch that could help???

this is very common system used on games like paragons in the u.k,90% of the time the touchscreen will be damaged in that area-try making you picture alot smaller and recalibrate,at least that will prove that area is not damaged
a problem we found was drink would penetrate and corrode the membrane of the touchscreen so look for evidence of that
double check you controller is plugged in firmly

I always forget to tell people to do that.  :P

Try going into the MICROTOUCH CONTROL PANEL then TOOLS and RESETTING the controller.
And then re-calibrate.
