  • How to Get a DAT/EM Touchpad Working on Windows 7, 8.1, Or 10
    DAT/EM Systems International Revision date: 18 April 2019 How to get a DAT/EM TouchPad working when the USB connection doesn’t work and the computer does not have a physical 9‐pin serial port Introduction The TouchPad is a legacy keypad‐like device manufactured by DAT/EM Systems International. There were about 100 of them manufactured and sold throughout the world. Most TouchPad parts are no longer available, but as long as the internal circuitry, controller box, and glass surface are still in good working order, you may be able to get it working with DAT/EM Capture software. With recent operating systems, the TouchPad’s USB interface does not work with the originally supplied USB cable, the correctly named DAT/EM driver, and Windows 7, 8.1, or 10. Symptoms are that during the Keypad Controller’s Tools > Device Settings > TouchPad > “Configure button positions for Datem TouchPad” setup process, the three required button presses don’t work at all, seem to be delayed, or activate two button hits per press. This makes it impossible to register and calibrate the corners. DAT/EM (“we”) looked at the strings being sent through the USB on button presses, and they are not valid. The serial connection always works; however, most computers are sold today without a 9‐pin serial port on the chassis. Note: If the computer actually has a physical serial port and it is not being used, the customer (“you”) can plug directly into the TouchPad Serial connection and do not need the USB to serial adapter. The solution is to use the serial connection at the TouchPad controller box with a USB to Serial adapter cable.

  • Evans, Gareth; Blenkhorn, Paul a Head Operated Joystick
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 430 330 EC 307 177 AUTHOR Evans, Gareth; Blenkhorn, Paul TITLE A Head Operated Joystick--Experience with Use. PUB DATE 1999-03-00 NOTE 6p. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Accessibility (for Disabled); *Assistive Devices (for Disabled); *Input Output Devices; *Severe Disabilities; Use Studies IDENTIFIERS *Joysticks ABSTRACT This paper describes the development and evaluation of a low-cost head-operated joystick for computer users with disabilities that prevent them from using a conventional hand-operated computer mouse and/or keyboard. The paper focuses on three issues: first, the style of head movement required by the device; second, whether a head-operated device should work as an absolute positioning device or as a joystick; and, third, the accuracy required by the device. It finds that the device's "nose following" style of head movement is more accepted by users than alternatives; that users also preferred the joystick relative pointing device over absolute positioning devices; and that users did not notice inaccuracies inherent in the device's design, thus allowing production at a lower cost.

  • Writing with a Joystick: a Comparison of Date Stamp, Selection Keyboard, and Edgewrite Jacob O
    Writing with a Joystick: A Comparison of Date Stamp, Selection Keyboard, and EdgeWrite Jacob O. Wobbrock, Brad A. Myers and Htet Htet Aung Human-Computer Interaction Institute School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA {jrock, bam, hha}@cs.cmu.edu http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~edgewrite/ Abstract A joystick text entry method for game controllers and mobile phones would be valuable, since these devices often have joysticks but no conventional keyboards. But prevalent joystick text entry methods are slow because they are selection-based. EdgeWrite, a new joystick text entry method, is not based on selection but on gestures from a unistroke alphabet. Our experiment shows that this new method is faster, leaves fewer errors, and is more satisfying than date stamp and selection keyboard (two prevalent Figure 1. The Saitek P2500 Rumble Force Pad. Our experiment selection-based methods) for novices after minimal used the two thumbsticks and one of the silver buttons. practice. For more practiced users, our results show that EdgeWrite is at least 1.5 times faster than selection messenger-style text.
