Upon clicking the Finish button of the New Project Wizard, the MCC Content Manager will open along with the newly created project.
Add the Touch Host Driver to the MCC content
From the Content Manager, click the Select MPLAB Harmony button.
Select Touch Host Driver from the optional content and click Finish.
This will close the Content Manager and open the MCC Resource Management and Project Graph windows.
Add the Touch Host Driver to the project
In the Device Resources pane of the Resource Management tab, expand the Touch Turnkey library to find the Touch Host Interface component.
Click on the Add button (green square with white cross) next to Touch Host Interface to add it to the Project Graph. The configuration options are shown in the right-hand pane.

How to Connect to Data Visualizer
Flash the project and open Data Visualizer.
Select the COM port, set the Baud rate and click Connect.
When data starts streaming, under Touch Session, choose the same COM port and click Connect.
