The touchscreen is optimally designed for finger use. The default touchscreen mode can be adjusted to
best match your application and environment, especially if you are using a capacitive stylus.
The Carlson Surveyor2 has three touch profile options:
Stylus – The stylus profile has been optimized for the use with the stylus that ships with the
Surveyor2. The stylus profile is the most sensitive profile. If you primarily use the stylus as your
touch instrument, we recommend that you use the Stylus profile. Many users find the stylus
profile also works well when using their finger for touching.
Finger – The finger profile is a little less sensitive than the stylus profile and also includes “edge
compensation”. The edge compensation function improves the touch performance for buttons
that are close to the edge of the bezel. If you primarily use your finger on the touchscreen, we
recommend you use the finger touch profile.
Water – The water profile is the least sensitive touch profile and is only recommended when the
touch interface needs to be used in heavy rain conditions. Water makes the touchscreen more
sensitive. If you use the water profile on a dry touchscreen, it will require heavy deliberate
touches with the stylus or finger to be register the touch.
To adjust the touchscreen profile, go to the Touch control panel by pressing
Start > Settings > System >
