Touchscreen wander

1100mx path pilot console. The cursor wanders throughout the day. If I calibrate it in the morning, by lunch it can be off by a couple mm or several inches. Also the more I calibrate the farther the cursor gets away from where I touch. I have been deleting the calibration file and rebooting a couple times a week but I want to lock in a calibration.

Dr Harold Jones,

What version of path pilot are you running? I would make sure you are updated to the most recent version. Then follow the steps below in order.

  1. In the file tab scroll down to pointercal.xinput and delete this file
  2. restart controller/computer
  3. skip when it asks to touch points
  4. in MDI type ADMIN TOUCHSCREEN SENSITIVITY 1000
  5. in MDI type admin touchscreen enter touch all 4 points with finger not mouse
    Let me know if this fixes the issue.
    Kindest regards,
    Katie

I tried the above response and it did fix it for a few hours. Ultimately I did a software restore on the pp console and the issue was resolved. It hasn’t been a problem since. Thanks.
