    Abstract: An optical touch control system and a captured signal adjusting method thereof are disclosed. The optical touch control system includes a base, an image sensor module, and an image processing device. The base has an edge frame. The image sensor module is disposed on the base and used for capturing the edge frame to obtain a testing image signal. The image processing device includes a processing module, a recognition module, and a record module. The processing module is used for executing a testing procedure. The recognition module is used for scanning the testing image signal. When the processing module executes the testing procedure, the recognition module recognizes a coordinate of an edge frame image from the testing image signal. Then the processing module is used for setting the coordinate of the edge frame image as a correct capture coordinate to record in the record module.
