.SH DESCRIPTION
.B fpit 
is an XFree86 input driver for Fujitsu Stylistic Tablet PCs.
.PP
The
.B fpit
driver functions as a pointer input device, and may be used as the
X server's core pointer.
.SH SUPPORTED HARDWARE
This driver supports the touchscreen of the Stylistic LT and (with
special options) of the Stylistic 500, 1000 and 2300.

Under Linux the Fujitsus serial port is not, by default, detected.
Therefore the following must be added to one of your start-up scripts.
(Either one of the X scripts, or to rc.local or similar).

.TP 4
.B setserial /dev/ttyS3 autoconfig
.TP 4
.B setserial /dev/ttyS3 IRQ 15 baud_base 115200 port 0xfce8

.SH CONFIGURATION DETAILS
Please refer to XF86Config(5x) for general configuration
details and for options that can be used with all input drivers.  This
section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.
.PP
The device supports the following options:
.RS 8
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"MaximumXPosition"\fP \fI"number"\fP
Sets the maximum X position, use this to callibrate your touchscreen's
right hand edge.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"MinimumXPosition"\fP \fI"number"\fP
Sets the minimum X position, use this to callibrate your touchscreen's
left hand edge.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"MaximumYPosition"\fP \fI"number"\fP
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"MinimumYPosition"\fP \fI"number"\fP
Same as for X axis, but for Y axis.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"InvertX"\fP
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"InvertY"\fP
Invert the specified axis.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"SwapXY"\fP
Swap the X and Y axis.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"Rotate"\fP \fI"CW"\fP
.B Option \fI"Rotate"\fP \fI"CWW"\fP
Manipulate the invert and swap options to match screen
rotations.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"DeviceName"\fP \fI"name"\fP
.B Option \fI"DeviceName"\fP \fI"name"\fP
sets the name of the X device.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"AlwaysCore"\fP \fI"on"\fP
enables the sharing of the core pointer. When this feature is enabled, the
device will take control of the core pointer (and thus will emit core events)
and at the same time will be able, when asked so, to report extended events.
You can use the last available integer feedback to control this feature. When
the value of the feedback is zero, the feature is disabled. The feature is
enabled for any other value.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"DebugLevel"\fP \fInumber \fP
sets the level of debugging info reported.
.TP 4
.B Option \fI"BaudRate"\fP \fI"38400"\fP, \fI"19200"\fP or \fI"9600"\fP (default)
changes the serial link speed.
.RE

Example, for Stylistic LT setup is:
.nf
.B "Section \*qInputDevice\*q"
.BI "  Identifier \*q" mouse0 \*q
.B  "  Driver \*qfpit\*q"
.BI "  Option \*qDevice\*q   \*q"/dev/ttyS3 \*q
.B EndSection
.fi

And for other Stylistic devices try:
.nf
.B "Section \*qInputDevice\*q"
.BI "  Identifier \*q" mouse0 \*q
.B  "  Driver \*qfpit\*q"
.BI "  Option \*qDevice\*q   \*q"/dev/ttyS3 \*q
.BI "  Option \*qBaudRate\*q \*q"19200 \*q
.BI "  Option \*qMaximumXPosition\*q \*q"6250 \*q
.BI "  Option \*qMaximumYPosition\*q \*q"4950 \*q
.BI "  Option \*qMinimumXPosition\*q \*q"130 \*q
.BI "  Option \*qMinimumYPosition\*q \*q"0 \*q
.BI "  Option \*qInvertY\*q"
