Using an Advantech FPM-7211W-P3AE Touch Screen hooked up to an Advantech UNO-2178A-A33E Thin Client.

All configuration is with Thin Manager.

 

When performing a calibration on the touchscreen you must:

1.       Hook up a keyboard to the thin client

2.       Select Ctrl + F11 (you need to configure ‘F11’ or something else this in Thin Manager)

3.       Very quickly click somewhere in the top RHS of the screen.

4.       The calibration will fail, but you will be prompted to run another calibration which will work fine.

 

If you do not do step 3, the calibration will lock up and you will need to restart the thin client.

 

Best I can tell is that because the screen is un-calibrated, only part of it works (top RHS).

Once calibrated, all is perfect.
