Enabling Your Multi-Touch Chassis Display

Windows™ 7 USB Compatibility
3M multi-touch technology works seamlessly with the Windows™ 7 operating system.
The Multi-Touch display supports USB HID for direct communication. The Multi-Touch
Chassis Display leverages all the multi-touch functionality that is native to Windows™ 7.
Plug the display in to a system running Windows™ 7 and you'll quickly enter the world
of true multi-touch functionality.
The Multi-Touch Chassis Display is compatible with Windows 7 with no additional
software. Refer to Microsoft's Windows 7 documentation for additional information.

All Other Platforms

When using a Windows™ 7 serial connection or for Windows XP, Vista or Linux
operating systems (either USB or serial), 3M provides MicroTouch MT 7 Software for
multi-touch drivers. This guide includes information for writing your own drivers to
interface with the 3M Multi-Touch Technology.
For non-Windows 7 operating system users this document provides the communication
protocol necessary to talk directly with the electronics. This enables software developers
using other operating systems such as Microsoft Windows™ Vista or Linux® to write
their own drivers and achieve the same multi-touch results.

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 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 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 more information on installing this software and using the control panel, refer to the
3M™ MicroTouch™ Software User Guide on the accompanying CD or on the corporate
website at www.3m.com/touch.
