0106 Description:
0107 (RW) This parameter controls the period of time to test for a
0108 ‘hands off’ condition (i.e. when no force is applied) before a
0109 drift (noise) calibration occurs.
0110
0111 IBM Trackpoints have a feature to compensate for drift by
0112 recalibrating themselves periodically. By default, if for 0.5
0113 seconds there is no change in position, it's used as the new
0114 zero. This duration is too low. Often, the calibration happens
0115 when the trackpoint is in fact being used.
