NextWindow Software

NextWindow USB products do not require special software; the touch screen communicates directly with the computer’s operating system via the USB interface, just like a USB mouse. However, an optional USB Configuration program that allows you to change various default settings is available in the Touch+ software suite. Touch+ also provides a driver and configuration program for serial applications (a serial interface is available in the 2403 Touch Panel Overlay and certain specialised products).

(Note: For a summary of NextWindow's product sizes, communications interfaces, and applicable software, see NextWindow Touch Screen Products Matrix.)
