Video Alignment
The SCT Chassis Display has been calibrated prior to shipment and the display as delivered should not require video alignment. You should be able to accurately touch icons on the sensor. If for some reason, you cannot do this, the touch sensor's active area may not be aligned to the underlying video.
To adjust the alignment, you should calibrate your touch sensor. This can done in one of two ways.
- If you are using 3M ^TM MicroTouch ^TM MT 7 Software, launch the MT 7 Control Panel and follow the instructions on the Main tab. You'll be asked to touch 3 targets.

- You may calibrate by accessing the Software Diagnostic Utility (SDU) found on the enclosed CD.
Launch the SDU from the CD. Select the Tools menu and highlight Calibration. The screen below appears and you should touch the 2 targets as they appear. Press Escape to cancel Calibration.

- If you are writing your own drivers, you should provide your own video alignment tool. Use the Paint program (Start> Programs> Accessories> Paint) to determine if you have touch operation. Retest the accuracy after you perform a calibration.
