So I have recently acquired two large 3M USB MicroTouch glass touch-screens and their manuals seem to not have any references to using them with Max/MSP, as I imagine they were made for more commercial applications. I'm connecting the screen to the proprietary (and separately sold) EX111 controller with a (also separately sold) serial to USB connection to my macbook using OSX 10.9.5.

Through the proprietary OSX drivers and software installed from their website, I can get the screens to register as external mouse trackpads, but on Max I cannot get the device to display as an option for the hi object to track from. How do I get Max to register it as a Device?

Also, if anyone is familiar with these touch screens, are they indeed multi-touch capable?

Hi object works only with USB HID devices.

Serial to USB device is not going to indentify itself as HID device.

So You need to look into serial object, I guess.
