Serial Mouse Control Driver

Introduction

The Crestron Serial Mouse Control Driver, licensed for use only in conjunction with the TPS-XVGA/-BV/L Computer Interface Cards, is designed to enable a Crestron Isys TPS touchpanel to function as a touch-sensitive computer monitor, compatible with Microsoft Windows 98/XP and Windows 2000/NT.
When you use the touchpanel as a monitor for a computer connected to your Crestron system, the Serial Mouse Control Driver lets you control the cursor movement and simulate the functions of a traditional mouse using your finger on the touchpanel to simulate typical computer mouse click and drag functions. In operation, use of the Serial Mouse Driver is similar to using a tablet device (such as a graphics tablet). For example, touching the cursor and dragging it across the screen, as you would do with a regular mouse, actually creates a selection box and selects displayed items in the path, as though you had done a left-click-and­drag operation. The way to move the cursor using the Serial Mouse Driver is to touch the screen where you want the cursor to be. Also, if you move the cursor to a location with the Mouse Driver, and then move it to a different location with the regular mouse, the Serial Mouse Driver “thinks” it is still at the earlier location. Before you can perform a function through the Serial Mouse Driver at the new location, you must touch the screen at that location.
The Serial Mouse Driver operation can be configured via a serial connection between the touchpanel and personal computer (PC), a wired connection through the Crestron remote control system (herein referred to as the Cresnet system), or an Ethernet/local area network (LAN), a local Crestron LAN, or a wide area network (WAN). Ethernet communication allows access to any Crestron Internet protocol (IP) control device, remote diagnostic and upgrade functions, access to Crestron’s network analyzer, and the ability to activate any device connected to the system.
The version of the Serial Mouse Control Driver listed in the “Driver Requirements” section below, supports inputs for two pointing devices, specifies serial join numbers during the “pad area” setup, and the Network/CIP Transmission Symbols are initialized automatically during control system reboot, eliminating the use of the “todest” and “toformat” commands. Additionally, the programming in VisionTools slider be created.

cable (page 7)
2 • Serial Mouse Control Driver Programmer’s Guide - DOC. 5916A
• In SIMPL Windows (page 13):
- Assign touchpanel serial output signals
- Assign control system Two-Way Serial Driver signals
- Save, Compile, and load the project to the touchpanel
• In VT Pro-e (page 16):
- Set the RGB object to PAD 1 or PAD 2
- Set the project properties according to the RGB selected PAD area
Type: Mouse Communication via: Cresnet Serial Join: 1 (example)
- Save, Compile, and load the project to the touchpanel
Mouse Driver Operation via Ethernet Communications
• Install Serial Mouse Control Driver software (page 3)

cable (page 10)
• Establish Ethernet communications between touchpanel and control system and add a device ID to touchpanel IP Table and control system (page 11)
• In SIMPL Windows (page 13):
- Assign touchpanel serial output signals
- Assign control system Two-Way Serial Driver signals
- Save, Compile, and load the project to the touchpanel
• In VT Pro-e (page 16):

Driver Software Installation

To install the Serial Mouse Control Driver software, download the self-extracting zip file from the What’s New page (Touchpanels section) or Downloads page (TOUCHPNL Library) of Crestron’s website (www.crestron.com) obtain access to the FTP site. Search for TPAD*.EXE. TPAD*.EXE will create two folders, UPDD (Universal Pointer Device Driver) and UPDD Playback Utility, plus the PDF version of this programmer’s guide.
CAUTION: Crestron’s licensed version of the UPDD is based upon the manufacturers default settings. With the exception of name of pointer device and COM port selection, DO NOT change default settings during setup. If altered, the settings cannot be reset and the driver software must be uninstalled then re-installed. Reinstallation of Microsoft may also be necessary.
Programmer’s Guide - DOC. 5916A Serial Mouse Control Driver • 3
. New users are required to register in order to
Windows
NOTE: Certain pairs of COM ports, such as 1 and 3, or 2 and 4, may be configured to use the same system interrupts within the Windows operating system, making it difficult to use both COM ports simultaneously. If so, it may be necessary to change the COM port setting. It is strongly recommended that the selected COM port be dedicated only for the Serial Mouse Control Driver. Refer to the Windows documentation for further information.
NOTE: Crestron recommends that the baud rate for both the touchpanel and PC port be set at the default rate of 9600, N, 8, 1.
Open the UPDD Driver folder and run setup.exe. All of the default settings should be kept, although two may be altered if desired. For example, the name of the pointer device can be changed from the default "Device 1" to "Crestron Touchpanel". In the Port dialog, a COM port other than the default COM1 can be selected, to specify the COM port from which the PC will receive the serial mouse commands.
Setup.exe will finish with a prompt to restart the computer. The computer MUST be restarted. After restarting the computer, open the UPDD Playback Utility folder and run setupply.exe. The default settings should not be altered. Navigate through each dialog and accept each default to complete the installation.
The Windows Start menu will now list UPDD and UPDD Playback Utility as programs, and the system tray of the Windows status bar will include icons shown below.
Pointer Device Settings & Event Scheduler Icons
After the system has been configured and programmed as outlined in the rest of this guide, it can be calibrated (or tested). Right-click the Pointer Device Settings icon and as shown below, select Calibrate from the Device Manager menu. Select Device 1 | Normal and calibrate the screen by following the onscreen directions.
Select Calibrate
The COM port can be changed by selecting Adjust settings from the Device Manager menu. As shown below, open the Hardware tab and choose a COM port from the drop-down list.

NOTE: A Crestron TPS-ENET or TPS-ENETL Ethernet expansion card must be installed in the touchpanel to enable Ethernet communication. For further information, refer to the TPS­ENET or TPS-ENETL Operations & Installation Guide (DOC. 5867 or 5829, respectively). The latest revisions can be obtained from the Products page (PRODUCT MANUALS section) or Downloads page (MANUAL Library) of Crestron’s website (www.crestron.com) New users are required to register to obtain access to the FTP site.
.
NOTE: The Crestron control system must contain an Ethernet expansion card to enable Ethernet communication. On CNX Generation control systems, the port may be labeled LAN or LAN/DPA. On 2-Series control systems, the port may be labeled LAN A or LAN B. For further information about CNX Generation Ethernet cards, refer to the CNXENET or CNXENET+ Operations & Installation Guide (DOC. 8129 or 8153, respectively). For further information about 2-Series Ethernet cards, refer to the C2ENET Operations & Installation Guide (DOC. 5962).

2. Proceed to “Ethernet Setup” that begins below.
Ethernet Setup
Ethernet devices that are addressed by the control system may have their IP IDs set either in the SIMPL Windows program or through the Crestron Viewport using a PC. Ultimately, each IP ID is converted into an actual IP address through an IP table that exists inside the control system. The IP Table is an internal list of information that contains the IP IDs and associated IP addresses of all Ethernet devices in the program. The IP Table is accessed by the control system to identify and locate Ethernet devices, for purposes of communication. Follow this procedure to add the Serial Control Mouse Driver to the IP table of the touchpanel.
Programmer’s Guide - DOC. 5916A Serial Mouse Control Driver • 11
1. Using the Crestron Viewport, (Remote | TCP/IP | Connect or Remote | Remote Console | Connect) establish communication with the touchpanel.
2. As shown on the next page, use the ipt (IPTABLE) command to display the current IP table for the CIP interface on the touchpanel.

5. Proceed to “SIMPL Windows Programming” that begins below on the next page.

SIMPL Windows Programming

With a Cresnet or Ethernet connection (Serial connection does NOT require SIMPL Windows programming), it is necessary to create a SIMPL Windows program to route the data and to transmit the touch output destination setting to the touchpanel when the system reboots (the default "todest" setting is RS-232). In the Configuration Manager, add the appropriate Plug-in Control Card or DPA Module to the control system and drag in the Cresnet or Ethernet-enabled touchpanel. (The entries in the IP Table, for IP ID and IP Address, must be set the same as for standard operation of the touchpanel on Cresnet or Ethernet.) Configure the devices as usual.
In the Program Manager, route the output string in the touchpanel definition to an RS-232 COM port as follows:
1. Open a “Detail View” for the touchpanel, and click the Serial button. Specify a signal name for a serial output (mouse_cmds on <text-i1> is shown below as an example).
NOTE: As shown, Serial Join 1 for <text-i1> will be used in step 6 of “VT Pro-e
Programming” that begins on page 16.

Appendix 1 - Keyboard Functionality

This appendix documents how to change the keyboard functionality of the serial mouse driver, i.e. how it determines that a left or right-click or keyboard character has been entered. It does not affect the movement of the mouse. Crestron ships the driver already configured for standard functionality as documented in this guide.
CAUTION: These changes should be made by advanced users only.
Bring up the dialog for the keyboard configuration utility from the Windows Start menu. Select Programs, then UPDD Playback Utility, and finally Control Program.
The Isys touchpanels output binary information which can be interpreted by the mouse driver in various ways. In particular, there are four bits, labeled EV00, EV01, EV02, EV03, that are interpreted as actions and not mouse positioning. Select a trigger name and then EV00 through EV03 respectively in the fields labeled "Data". Click Set, select the bit pattern that represents how each of these fields are set, and then select the System Event that corresponds to that pattern, e.g. VK_LBUTTON is Left Button, VK_ESCAPE is the ESCAPE key, etc. Select the button that corresponds to the click action, e.g. click down, click up, etc. (This option only applies to buttons, not keys.) Click Apply to accept the changes, or select Reset to indicate that the button is being released rather than pressed. This is necessary for click and drag functionality.
Macro capability, in the bottom section of the dialog, does not function in Crestron versions of the UPDD Playback Utility.

Appendix 3 - Cable and Wiring Specifications

Cresnet 4-Wire Wiring

NOTE: If making category 5 connections to the Cresnet peripherals, refer to the latest revision of the Cresnet Mini Network CAT 5 Interconnect Drawing (Doc. 5819). This document can be obtained from the Products page (PRODUCT MANUALS section, manuals for software and wiring diagrams section) or Downloads page (CABLES and MANUAL Libraries) of Crestron’s website (www.crestron.com). Search for CAT5.PDF.
When calculating the wire gauge for a particular Cresnet run, the length of the run and the load factor of each network unit to be connected must be taken into consideration. If Cresnet units are to be daisy-chained on the run, the load factor of each unit to be daisy-chained must be added together to determine the load factor of the entire chain. If the unit is a home-run from a Crestron system power supply network port, the load factor of that unit is the load factor of the entire run. The length of the run in feet and the load factor of the run should be used in the resistance equation below to calculate the value on the right side of the equation.
Resistance Equation
R <
40,000
L x LF
Where:
R = Resistance (refer to next table). L = Length of run (or chain) in feet. LF = Load factor of entire run (or chain).
The required wire gauge should be chosen such that the resistance value is less than the value calculated in the resistance equation. Refer to the table below.

NOTE: All Cresnet wiring must consist of two twisted-pairs. One twisted pair is the +24V conductor and the GND conductor and the other twisted pair is the Y conductor and the Z conductor.
NOTE: When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully to avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on the network connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only to the ends of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end becomes brittle. Insert the tinned connection into the Cresnet connector and tighten the retaining screw. Repeat the procedure for the other three conductors.
