Configuring the Software

Calibrating the Touch Screen

After the operating system is installed, you will need to calibrate the touch screen.
NOTE: You may want to connect a mouse (not included) to the system for this procedure.
1. Launch the TouchMon utility by right-clicking on the TouchMon icon in the system tray and selecting
4 points calibration or selecting Start > All Programs > HP Touch > HP TouchMon
Calibration.
2. When you see a red circle in the corner of the screen, touch the center of the circle with your finger
and continue touching it until the progress counter changes to OK. A new red circle will then appear
in another corner of the screen.
3. Repeat Step 2 for each corner of the screen. When the process is complete, the utility will close
and return you to the Windows desktop.

Configuring the MSR and VFD Customer Display

To configure the MSR and VFD, refer to the HP Point of Sale Configuration Guide (available in English
only). The guide is available on the system's hard drive. In Windows XP or Windows Embedded
POSReady 2009, select Start > All Programs > HP Point of Sale Information to access the guide. In
Windows 7, select Start > HP Point of Sale Information to access the guide.

Configuring the COM Port for the VFD Customer Display

You can connect the VFD customer display to either the COM1 port or the COM2 port. The COM port
must be configured for 5 volts in the Computer Setup utility for the VFD customer display to function
properly. The VFD is connected to the COM2 port from the factory and the COM2 port is already
configured for 5 volts.
NOTE: Do not connect the VFD customer display to the COM3 port.
1. Press the power button to turn off the computer.
2. Press the power button again to turn on the computer and press the
boots to the operating system to enter the Computer Setup utility.
3. Note which COM port (COM1 or COM2) on the rear panel is connected to the VFD customer
display.
4. In the Computer Setup utility, go to Advanced > Super IO Configuration > Serial Port1 Standard
Mode/5V or Serial Port2 Standard Mode/5V and change the setting to 5 V.
