US Patent 7825908 Method for resetting configuration on a touchscreen interface

Factory settings of a touchscreen interface may be restored by cycling power off and on to initiate system startup while simultaneously touching the touchscreen. If a screen touch is in progress at system startup, the user is prompted to discontinue the screen touch, and then is prompted to touch the screen again before a timer expires in order to restore factory calibration settings. If there is no screen touch upon startup, or if the user does not touch the screen to restore factory settings within the timer period, existing user calibration is loaded, and the application is allowed to run with the user calibration settings.
