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.  For better understanding please read also the CTS and various IRT manuals which
       are available in "pdf" format from Citron web page www.citron.de or directly from Citron.

       The following driver Options are supported:

       Option "Device" "devpath"
	      Specify the device path for the citron touch.  Valid devices are:

		   /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, ...
	      This option is mandatory.

	      It's important to specify the right device Note: com1 -> /dev/ttyS0, com2 -> /dev/ttyS1, ...

       Option "ScreenNumber" "screennumber"
	      sets the screennumber for the citron InputDevice.

	      Default: ScreenNumber: "0"

       Option "MinX" "value"

       Option "MinY" "value"
	      These are the minimum X and Y values for the citron input device.

	      Note: MinX, MinY must be less than MaxX, MaxY.

	      Range: "0" - "65535"

	      Default: MinX: "0"  MinY: "0"

       Option "MaxX" "value"

       Option "MaxY" "value"
	      These are the maximum X and Y values for the citron input device.

	      Note: MaxX, MaxY must be greater than MinX, MinY.

	      Range: "0" - "65535"

	      Default: MaxX: "65535"  MaxY: "65535"

       Option "ButtonNumber" "value"
	      This value is responsible for the button number that is returned within the xf86PostButton event message

	      Range: "0" - "255"

	      Default: "1"

       Option "ButtonThreshold" "value"
	      This value is responsible for the button threshold.  It changes the pressure sensitivity of the touch. A higher  number  corresponds
	      to a higher pressure.

	      Note: This feature is only available with pressure sensitive hardware.

	      Range: "0" - "255"

	      Default: "20"

       Sleep-Mode
	      If  the  IRT  is	in Doze-Mode and Touch Zone is not interrupted for another certain span of time, the so-called Sleep-Mode is acti-
	      vated. The Sleep-Mode decreases the scan rate of the beams even further than the Doze-Mode does  (see  below).  This  way  the  life
	      expectancy  of the beams is prolonged and the power consumption of the IRT is reduced.  As soon as an interruption of the Touch Zone
	      is detected, the Sleep-Mode is deactivated and the Touch Zone will again be scanned with the  maximum  speed.  With  the	Sleep-Mode
	      activated,  depending  on the set scan rate the IRT's response time can be considerably longer as in normal operation. If, for exam-
	      ple, a scan rate of 500 ms / scan is set, it may last up to a half of a second until the IRT detects the	interruption  and  deacti-
	      vates the Sleep-Mode.

       Option "SleepMode" "mode"
	      This value is responsible for the sleep-mode of the touch.
	      Determines the behaviour of the Sleep-Mode.

	      0x00
	       No message at either activation or deactivation

	      0x01
	       Message at activation

	      0x02
	       Message at deactivation

	      0x03
	       Message at activation and deactivation

	      0x10 GP_OUT output set according to the Sleep-Mode status

	      Values: "0" "1" "2" "3" "16"

	      Default: "0"

       Option "SleepTime" "time"
	      This  value  is  responsible  for  the  sleep-time  of the touch. It is the activation time in seconds ("0" = immediately activated,
	      "65535" = always deactivated).

	      Range: "0" - "65535" [s]

	      Default: "65535" => deactivated

       Option "SleepScan" "scan"
	      This value is responsible for the scan-time of the touch. This is the time interval between two scan operations while in Sleep-Mode.
	      The time interval is set in steps of milliseconds.

	      Range: "0" - "65535" [ms]

	      Default: "500"

       Option "PWMActive" "value"
	      This  value  determines  the mark-to-space ratio of the PWM output while in normal operation (sleep-mode not active).  Higher values
	      result in longer pulse widths. This output signal can be used in conjunction with the Citron AWBI to do  backlight-dimming  via  the
	      touch.

	      Range: "0" - "255"

	      Default: "255" (max. brightness)

       Option "PWMSleep" "value"
	      This  value determines the mark-to-space ratio of the PWM output while in sleep-mode (-> SleepMode, SleepScan, SleepTime ) operation
	      (sleep-mode active).  Higher values result in longer pulse widths.

	      Range: "0" - "255"

	      Default: "255" (max. brightness)

       Option "PWMFreq" "value"
	      This value determines the PWM frequency in Hertz.

	      Range: "39" - "9803"

	      Default: "9803" (max. frequency)

       Option "ClickMode" "mode"
	      With mode one can select between 5 ClickModes

	      "1" = ClickMode Enter

	      With this mode every interruption of the infrared beams will activate a ButtonPress event and after the interruption a ButtonRelease
	      event will be sent.

	      "2" = ClickMode Dual

	      With this mode every interruption will sent a Proximity event and every second interruption a ButtonPress event. With the release of
	      the interruption (while one interruption is still active) a ButtonRelease event will be sent.

	      "3" = ClickMode Dual Exit

	      With this mode every interruption will sent a ProximityIn event and every second interruption a ButtonPress event. With the  release
	      of  the  interruption  (while  one  interruption is still active) no ButtonRelease event will be sent. Only if all interruptions are
	      released a ButtonRelease followed by a ProximityOut event will be sent.

	      "4" = ClickMode ZPress

	      With this mode every interruption will sent a ProximityIn event. Only if a certain pressure is exceeded  a  ButtonPress  event  will
	      occur.  If  the  pressure falls below a certain limit a ButtonRelease event will be sent.  After also the interruption is released a
	      ProximityOut event is generated.

	      "5" = ClickMode ZPress Exit

	      This mode is similar to "Clickmode Dual Exit".  The first interruption of the beams will sent a ProximityIn event. Only if a certain
	      pressure	is  exceeded  a  ButtonPress  event will occur. If the pressure falls below a certain limit no ButtonRelease event will be
	      sent.  After the interruption is also released a ButtonRelease followed by a ProximityOut event is generated.

	      Range: "1" - "5"

	      Default: "1" (ClickMode Enter)

       Option "Origin" "value"
	      This value sets the coordinates origin to one of the four corners of the screen.	The following values are  accepted:  "0"  TOPLEFT:
	      Origin  set  to the left-hand side top corner.  "1" TOPRIGHT: Origin set to the right-hand side top corner.  "2" BOTTOMRIGHT: Origin
	      set to the right-hand side bottom corner.  "3" BOTTOMLEFT: Origin set to the left-hand side bottom corner.

	      Range: "0" - "3"

	      Default: "0" (TOPLEFT)

       Doze-Mode
	      If for a certain span of time the Touch Zone is not interrupted, the so-called Doze-Mode is automatically activated.  The  activated
	      Doze-Mode  slightly decreases the scan rate of the beams. This way the power consumption of the IRT is reduced. As soon as an inter-
	      ruption of the Touch Zone is detected, the Doze-Mode is deactivated and the Touch Zone will again be scanned with the maximum speed.

       Option "DozeMode" "mode"
	      This value is responsible for the doze-mode of the touch.

	      Determines the behaviour of the Doze-Mode.

	      0x00 No message at either activation or deactivation

	      0x01 Message at activation

	      0x02 Message at deactivation

	      0x03 Message at activation and deactivation

	      0x10 GP_OUT output set according to the Doze-Mode status

	      If the GP_OUT output is already controlled by the Sleep-Mode it is no longer available as an output port anymore.

	      Values: "0" "1" "2" "3" "16"

	      Default: "0"

       Option "DozeTime" "time"
