Lilliput: Have to calibrate every 5 minute?

**Burat** · 12-13-2003, 05:51 PM

I tried my new Lilliput today. After installing the drivers everything worked fine. But after an hour I suddenly coudn't use the scrollbars on the right of my browser window anymore. I touched the screen on the far right edge but the mouse pointer wouldn't get any closer than 0.5 inch from the edge. I calibrated (25 point calibration) and it worked again. For 5 minutes. Again the same problem. I calibrated again. The graphical representation of the calibration results get more special every time I run it.

I restart the pc and the screen. I recalibrated. It seemed better, but still a part of the screen that I can't use.

Is this normal?

Hm ok, but is it a common error or something?

Try using a Palm Stylus to see if it does the same thing.

Have been using a stylus, and am having same problem. Wondering if it has to due with the fact I am running 800x600. Going to use powerstrip and reset to 800x483 as everyone else is trying. Makes since that if the horizontal/verticle size of the screen was correct for the native resolution, the touchscreen would be aligned and should work. I will let you know my results.

I use 800X600 no probs. yours sounds f****D if it works for 5 mins then stops...Well, a loose connection at the least!

I tried again yesterday. The first time I calibrated, it looked like this:

The second time (10 mins later) it was a lot worse..

I sent an email with this screenshot to the reseller (cartft.com), but I have not heard anything yet..

That's a good way of putting it!!

I see what you mean though....

I connected the lilliput to my laptop and did a fresh driver installation.
Results are about te same: useless

I did the draw test. I tried to draw a nice zigzag pattern, trying to keep in the centre of the columns. Results are bizarre (sorry for large dimensions, 25K though):

I have the same damn problem. The screen worked allright for about 2 days, then the right portion of the screen became way out. I tried the screen on another computer, tried different resolutions, but nothing helped. I'm really starting to think the unit is faulty!

This is wat i get;
