5. Adding a TSHARC Driver Component to an OS
Adding the TSHARC driver component to your OS design is an integral step in the Image Building Process. Often this step is over-looked or performed incorrectly.
The TSHARC driver was designed to make this process simple to execute.
These steps show how to add the TSHARC controller's component to your image design.
Launch "Platform Builder 5.0"

text_image
New Platform Wizard - Step 1 Welcome to the New Platform Wizard This wizard guides you through the process of creating an OS design for a Windows CE-based platform. An OS design defines the characteristics of a Windows CE OS. You can create an OS design by choosing a design template and one or more board support packages (BSPs). A BSP includes an OEM adaptation layer (OAL) and device drivers. This wizard helps you: Choose a BSP. Choose a design template. Add items to your OS design or remove items from it. To continue, click Next. < Back Next > Finish CancelFigure 10: Welcome to the Platform Wizard Screen
The Platform Wizard is a Windows CE tool used to create a Windows CE Operating System.
It allows for the selective inclusion of many different peripheral devices and other system dependencies.
Other options may be desirable for the particular image build. This document merely shows how to add the TSHARC driver component.

6. Configuring TSHARC Controller
Changing the Number of Calibration Points
Method 1:
• In "Platform Builder 5.0", click on the FileView tab
- Double click on the appropriate registry file
○ If Serial
RIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCS\TSHARCS.reg
○ If PS/2
DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCP\TSHARCP.reg
○ If USB
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCU\TSHARCU.reg
- Change the value of "CalType" appropriately
- For 3-point calibration, set value to "dword:3"
- For 4-point calibration, set value to "dword:4"
- For 7-point calibration, set value to "dword:7"
- For 20-point calibration, set value to "dword:14"

- Rebuild and recreate run-time image.
Method 2:
- Using a registry editor for the target device, change the "CalType" registry item located within the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\CalType" branch according to the following:
- For 3-point calibration, set value to "dword:3"
- For 4-point calibration, set value to "dword:4"
- For 7-point calibration, set value to "dword:7"
- For 20-point calibration, set value to "dword:14"
- For 3-point calibration, set value to "dword:3" - For 4-point calibration, set value to "dword:4" - For 7-point calibration, set value to "dword:7" - For 20-point calibration, set value to "dword:14"
- Browse to the "Windows" directory using Windows Explorer and double-click the shortcut "TouchIOCTL". This will cause current TSHARC driver to re-read and apply the new registry settings.
Calibrating the Controller
- Select the Start menu
- Under the "Programs" group select "TSHARC Calibration"
- Touch all targets with activator tip for at least a couple seconds each.
The points used for the calibration is determined by the “CalType” registry entry described in section “Changing the Calibration Type” below.
If no shortcut is present under “Programs” group, a shortcut to the calibration application may be found in under the “Windows” directory on the CE Device.
Windows CE Calibration Registry Entries
Calibration parameters are created by Hcecal after calibration and are stored in the registry under the following key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global]
Upon boot, if the registry entries are not located, the driver defaults to a default un-calibrated state.
Enabling Right-Click Emulation
Method 1
• In "Platform Builder 5.0", click on the "FileView" tab
- Double click on the appropriate registry file
- If Serial
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCS\TSHARCS.reg
- If PS/2
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCP\TSHARCP.reg
- If USB
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCU\TSHARCU.reg
- Remove the semi-colons (uncomment) from the last four lines of the file.
- Rebuild and recreate run-time image.
Method 2
- Using a registry editor for the target device, change the "xEventArea", "yEventArea" and "RightClickTime" registry items located within the
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global" branch according to the description of what these values are responsible for in the next paragraph. - Browse to the "Windows" directory using Windows Explorer and double-click the shortcut "TouchIOCTL". This will cause current TSHARC driver to re-read and apply the new registry settings.
Configuring Right-Click Emulation
There are three entries that can be configured for right-click emulation found at [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global]
- "xEventArea"
- "yEventArea"
- "RightClickTime"
The "RightClickTime" is the time elapsed (measured in clock ticks) on a touch that is within an area on the screen (the event area) before a right-click event is sent.
The "xEventArea" and "yEventArea" entries are horizontal and vertical components of the area that a touch remains in for a time specified by "RightClickTime" before a right-click event is sent. The Values for "xEventArea" and "yEventArea" entries can range from between 0x0000 and 0xFFFF.
The "xEventArea" and "yEventArea" are relative to the touch screen coordinates rather than the screen coordinates.
To determine the values for xEventArea and yEventArea, the following formula may be used:
xEventArea = 65535 * (desired_event_area_width / width_of_touchscreen)
yEventArea = 65535 * (desired_event_area_height / height_of_touchscreen)
These values must be entered in hexadecimal for the Registry entry.
Disabling Right-Click Emulation
To disable Right-Click emulation, "RightClickTime" should have of value or zero, or the registry entries "xEventArea", "yEventArea", and "RightClickTime" can be removed or kept absent from the registry.
Changing Calibration Timeout Values
There are two timeout values that are adjustable in the registry that correspond to the timeout value when first launching the calibration application ("CalTimeIn") and the timeout value after touching all of the calibration points("CalTimeOut"). If the countdown timer for "CalTimeIn" expires, the calibration application simply exits. If the counter for "CalTimeOut" expires then the calibration application reverts the calibration settings to the previous settings. The default value "CalTimeIn" is 15 seconds and the default value for "CalTimeOut" is 90 seconds.
Method 1:
- In "Platform Builder 5.0", click on the "FileView" tab
- Double click on the appropriate registry file
\PUBLIC\COMMON\OAK
- If Serial
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCS\TSHARCS.reg
- If PS/2
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCP\TSHARCP.reg
- If USB
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCU\TSHARCU.reg
- Add the following lines to the end of the file:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global]
"CalTimeIn"=dword:F
"CalTimeOut"=dword:5A
- Rebuild and recreate run-time image.
Method 2:
- Using a registry editor for the target device, change the "CalTimeIn", "CalTimeOut" registry items located within the
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global" branch according to timeout value(s) that are desired. - Browse to the "Windows" directory using Windows Explorer and double-click the shortcut "TouchIOCTL". This will cause current TSHARC driver to re-read and apply the new registry settings.
Configure Touch Beep
Method 1:
The following lines may be added to the "tsharcs.reg", "tsharcu.reg" or "tsharcp.reg" file.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global]
"usewincebeep"=dword:1
The "Volume & Sounds" control panel applet uses the "PanelState" registry to store its settings.
If "usewincebeep" = 1
This value is queried on touch-down and changes made in the control panel can be observed immediately.
If the "usewincebeep" = 2
This value is queried on touch up. Also, changes in the control panel applet will not be observed until the second touch.
The follow entry is needed to make the option to configure taps in the "Volume & Sounds" control panel applet visible:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel]
"Screen"=dword:3
Method 2
The Beep can also be configured using the Windows CE "Volume & Sounds" control panel applet. To use this applet, set the "usewincebeep" entry to a DWORD value of one or two in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global" registry branch.
Enable/Disable Touch Beep
Enable
To enable the beep add the registry value "beepEnabled" and set it to one.
Disable
To disable the beep, exclude the "beepEnabled" registry value or set to zero.
Loud Beep
To make the beep loud, add the registry value "beeplsLoud" and set it to one.
Soft Beep
To make the beep soft, exclude the "beepIsLoud" registry value or set to zero.
Changing the mouse event stream rate
When the mouse cursor moves and changes state as a result of a touch, the TSHARC CE driver sends a series of mouse events to the Windows CE event queue. If the mouse events are sent too fast, other CE applications and background process may take longer to process their own events while the touch screen is being touched. For this reason, a new feature has been added to the TSHARC Serial and USB drivers to allow adjustment of the speed at which the driver sends mouse events.
The default value is a minimum duration 16 clock ticks for every mouse packet (except for pen up and pen down packets which are always processed immediately).
For slower embedded devices, it may be desirable to increase this value to decrease to rate at which mouse packets are sent. For faster devices, it may be desirable to decrease this value to increase the rate at which mouse packets are sent.
Method 1:
• In "Platform Builder 5.0", click on the FileView tab
- Double click on the appropriate registry file
○ If Serial
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCS\TSHARCS.reg
○ If PS/2
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCP\TSHARCP.reg
○ If USB
\DRIVERS\TSHARC\TSHARCU\TSHARCU.reg
- Add the following lines:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global] "mouseMoveThreshold" = dword:10
Method 2:
- Using a registry editor for the target device, add or change the "mouseMoveThreshold", registry item located within the
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hampshire\CurrentVersion\Global" branch to the desired minimum duration length to be applied for every mouse stream packet. - Browse to the "Windows" directory using Windows Explorer and double-click the shortcut "TouchIOCTL". This will cause current TSHARC driver to re-read and apply the new registry settings.
7. TSHARC Component Removal
Removing a TSHARC Driver Components from an OS Design

8. Additional Set-Up Notes
Establish Communication with Target CE Device
To modify the registry, add a file, or to use any of Platform Builders tools on existing target CE system, the ActiveSync tool is very necessary for making changes on a target CE device.
To connect via ActiveSync, there are multiple communication mechanisms available to connect to the target device. Usually, the easiest way to communicate with the target device is to attach a NULL modem cable between the CE device and other computer that is used for debugging, download the latest ActiveSync application, and then in the windows directory of the CE device, there is usually the executable file "repllog". Double-click this application from Windows Explorer and the device will connect to the debugging computer.
For detailed instructions on different ways to communicate with a Windows CE, please see Microsoft's documentation.
Saving registry settings to Persistent Storage
After calibrating the touch screen controller the calibration registry settings are automatically saved to the persistent storage if persistent storage is setup correctly on the CE device. However, if the TSHARC registry settings are edited using a registry editor or third-party application, the new registry settings may be saved using two methods.
Method 1:
Click
"Start->Suspend"
on the Windows CE target.
Method 2:
If changing the registry settings programmatically, call RegFlushKey() function in source code after making registry modifications.
Aygshell Component - Effect on Right-Click Emulation
Windows CE has a shell extension called "aygshell" that is meant to be used with touch screen. If the touch screen is touched and held in the same region of the screen, black dots will appear and a right click will occur in the same area that is being touch. The issue with using this is component is that appears to be no way to disable this component once it has been included in the CE target image. Also, this component conflicts with the right-click feature of the driver. To remove this component, search for the "aygshell" component and remove this from the target image. A clean build should then be done to ensure it is properly removed.
If this component is component is included in the target image, it may be configured as follows:
- The "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Commctrl" registry subkey stores settings that affect common controls.
- UseLongDelayForGestures : DWORD
- There is no default setting. This value controls the recognition delay used by SHRecognizeGesture. If this value is set to 1, then the delay is 800 ms. Otherwise, the delay is 400 ms. There is no way to disable this feature.
Troubleshooting TSHARC CE Driver
In some cases there may be conflicting devices or an invalid configuration on a target CE system. In this case, it may be difficult to determine if the TSHARC driver is correctly being loaded.
To see if the TSHARC CE driver is being loaded and if there are any relevant messages being outputted due to an invalid configuration, it is often useful to see the kernel debug output from the target system.
Very often on Windows CE devices, there is a COM port available for kernel debugging. If there is such a COM port, attach a NULL modem cable between the CE device and other computer that is used for debugging. On the computer that is used for debugging, set the terminal application to 38400-N-8-1. If there is a successful communication with the device, first output from the boot loader will be seen followed by output from the CE operating system. There will be kernel debug messages from the TSHARC driver if the target system is correctly configured.
