    Has anyone had experience with using a keyboard and mouse on the C-Touch?

    I did a search and found a few posts of people using the keyboard, but what about a mouse?

    Do you get a cursor? I'm mainly wanting it for modifying the schedules. If my memory serves me right, a cursor appears when you load the schedules on it. Can anyone confirm this?

    Thanks.

    It can be done using the correct adaptor. You should not ever see a cursor, though. We went to a lot of trouble to remove it! :)

    You should not need a keyboard or mouse for editing Schedules. You may have a hard time if the unit isn't calibrated and you aren't using a stylus, because the small controls will be tricky to click.

    Thanks. How does the mouse work if you never see the cursor?

    Have I only ever seen the cursor during the calibration setup? or is it visible during editing the schedules? I do not have one available to test at present.

    The touch screen is not designed to be used with a mouse, hence no cursor. The idea is that you touch the screen and at the point that you touch the "click" occurs.

    The cursor shouldn't be visible at anytime, as it is not needed and serves no purpose.
