EDT ft5x06 based Polytouch devices |
|
---------------------------------- |
|
|
|
The edt-ft5x06 driver is useful for the EDT "Polytouch" family of capacitive |
|
touch screens. Note that it is *not* suitable for other devices based on the |
|
focaltec ft5x06 devices, since they contain vendor-specific firmware. In |
|
particular this driver is not suitable for the Nook tablet. |
|
|
|
It has been tested with the following devices: |
|
* EP0350M06 |
|
* EP0430M06 |
|
* EP0570M06 |
|
* EP0700M06 |
|
|
|
The driver allows configuration of the touch screen via a set of sysfs files: |
|
|
|
/sys/class/input/eventX/device/device/threshold: |
|
allows setting the "click"-threshold in the range from 0 to 80. |
|
|
|
/sys/class/input/eventX/device/device/gain: |
|
allows setting the sensitivity in the range from 0 to 31. Note that |
|
lower values indicate higher sensitivity. |
|
|
|
/sys/class/input/eventX/device/device/offset: |
|
allows setting the edge compensation in the range from 0 to 31. |
|
|
|
/sys/class/input/eventX/device/device/report_rate: |
|
allows setting the report rate in the range from 3 to 14. |
|
|
|
|
|
For debugging purposes the driver provides a few files in the debug |
|
filesystem (if available in the kernel). In /sys/kernel/debug/edt_ft5x06 |
|
you'll find the following files: |
|
|
|
num_x, num_y: |
|
(readonly) contains the number of sensor fields in X- and |
|
Y-direction. |
|
|
|
mode: |
|
allows switching the sensor between "factory mode" and "operation |
|
mode" by writing "1" or "0" to it. In factory mode (1) it is |
|
possible to get the raw data from the sensor. Note that in factory |
|
mode regular events don't get delivered and the options described |
|
above are unavailable. |
|
|
|
raw_data: |
|
contains num_x * num_y big endian 16 bit values describing the raw |
|
values for each sensor field. Note that each read() call on this |
|
files triggers a new readout. It is recommended to provide a buffer |
|
big enough to contain num_x * num_y * 2 bytes. |
|
|
|
Note that reading raw_data gives a I/O error when the device is not in factory |
|
mode. The same happens when reading/writing to the parameter files when the |
|
device is not in regular operation mode.
