ENWW
Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/
Using the TouchPad
NOTE If you are using the TouchPad to move the pointer, you must lift your finger off the
TouchPad before moving it to the scroll zone. Simply sliding your finger from the TouchPad to
the scroll zone will not activate the scrolling function.
Using the pointing stick
Press the pointing stick in the direction you want to move the pointer on the screen. Use the left and
right pointing stick buttons as you would the left and right buttons on an external mouse.
Setting pointing device preferences
Mouse Properties in Microsoft® Windows® allows you to customize pointing device settings such as
mouse speed preferences.
To access Mouse Properties, select Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware >
Mouse.
Connecting an external mouse

Using the pen
You can write with the pen in pen-specific programs, such as the Tablet PC Input Panel [DOES SPUTNIK
SUPPORT THIS?], in all Microsoft Office applications, and in most other Windows programs and utilities.
The information you write on the screen with the pen can be filed, searched, and shared among most
Windows programs.
Identifying the pen components
The pen interacts with the computer whenever the tip (1) of the pen is approximately 1.27 cm (0.5 inch)
from the screen. [IS THIS TRUE FOR SPUTNIK OR DOES THE PEN HAVE TO TOUCH THE
SCREEN?]
The pen tether eyelet (2) allows you to connect a tether from the pen to the computer.
Holding the pen
Hold the pen as if you were writing with a standard pen or pencil. Position the pen in your hand so that
you will not accidentally press the pen button.
As you monitor the movements of the pen, focus on the pointer, not on the tip of the pen.
Performing mouse clicks with the pen
To select an item on the screen as you would with the left button of an external mouse:
Tap the item with the tip of the pen.
To double-click an item on the screen as you would with the left button of an external mouse:
Tap the item twice with the tip of the pen.
[HOW DOES ONE RIGHT-CLICK? DRAG & DROP?]
Performing other procedures with the pen
●
To display the pointer location, hold the pen tip immediately over any location on the screen without
touching the screen with the pen tip.
●
To display the menu options related to an item on the screen, tap the screen with the pen tip.
●
To write with the pen, write on the screen with the tip of the pen.
●
To press a pen-activated button, tap the button with the tip of the pen.
ENWW
Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/
Using the pen
Pressure-sensitivity
[DOES THIS SECTION APPLY?] The pen is equipped with a pressure-sensitive feature. This means
that you can manipulate the pen to create lines of various thickness, depending upon the amount of
pressure you use to write.
NOTE This feature is only available if the Tablet PC Input Panel software program is enabled.
Calibrating the pen
The pen can function at the default calibration or at a calibration set by another user. However, HP highly
recommends that you use the pen only while it is calibrated to your personal handwriting and mouse
action motions. Calibration optimizes pen performance for all users and particularly for left-handed
users.
To calibrate the pen: [THESE STEPS MAY CHANGE WITH VISTA]
1.
Select Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware > Tablet and Pen Settings >
Settings tab.
2.
Select Calibrate.
3.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
●
Tap the pen in the exact center of each of the calibration markers. The calibration markers
are displayed on the screen as plus signs (+).
●
Be sure to calibrate the pen for use in both portrait and landscape orientations.
NOTE You can display information about any setting in the Tablet and Pen Settings window by
selecting the question mark button in the upper-right corner of the window, and then select a
setting.

Using the pen holder
To protect the pen when you are not using it, insert the pen, tip first, into the pen holder on the computer.
[I JUST REALIZED THIS GRAPHIC SHOWS THE COMPUTER UPSIDE DOWN. I'LL HAVE IT
CORRECTED FORTHE NEXT REVIEW.]
Setting pen preferences
[THESE STEPS MAY CHANGE WITH VISTA]
Pen preferences are set in the Tablet and Pen Settings window of the operating system. The preferences
include settings that optimize handwriting recognition and the location of on-screen menus for either
right-handed or left-handed users.
To access the pen settings:
Select Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware > Tablet and Pen Settings > Pen
Options tab.
The preferences you set in the Tablet and Pen Settings window are specific to the pen and the computer.
Pointing device preferences, such as pointer speed, click speed, and mouse trails, are set in the Mouse
Properties window. These preferences apply to any pointing device in the system.
To access Mouse Properties:
Select Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware > Mouse.
ENWW
Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/
Using the pen
Using the touchscreen (select models only)
The touchscreen (select models only) allow you to make selections or activate items on the screen using
your fingers.
CAUTION To prevent damage to the touchscreen:
Do not use your fingernails or other sharp objects to make selections.
Do not slide your finger or any other object across the screen.
To select an item on the screen as you would with the left button of an external mouse:
Lightly tap the item with your finger.
To double-click an item on the screen as you would with the left button of an external mouse:
Lightly tap the item twice with your finger.
I am assuming that finger touching is the
same as pen touching. Please let me
know where the differences are.

Cleaning the TouchPad, keyboard, and
touchscreen (select models only)
Clean the touchscreen (select models only) regularly with non-abrasive wipes intended for this purpose.
Dirt and grease on the TouchPad can cause the pointer to jump around on the screen. To avoid this,
clean the TouchPad with a damp cloth, and wash your hands frequently when using the computer.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to internal components, do not use
a vacuum cleaner attachment to clean the keyboard. A vacuum cleaner could deposit household
debris on the keyboard surface.

Using battery power
When a charged battery is in the computer and the computer is not plugged into external power, the
computer runs on battery power. When the computer is plugged into external AC power, the computer
runs on AC power.
If the computer contains a charged battery and is running on external AC power supplied through the
AC adapter, the computer switches to battery power if the AC adapter is disconnected from the
computer.
NOTE The display brightness is decreased to save battery life when you disconnect AC power.
To increase display brightness, use the fn+f8 hotkey or reconnect the AC adapter.
You can keep a battery in the computer or in storage, depending on how you work. Keeping the battery
in the computer whenever the computer is plugged into AC power charges the battery and also protects
your work in case of a power outage. However, a battery in the computer slowly discharges when the
computer is off and unplugged from external power.
WARNING! To avoid potential safety issues, use only the battery provided with the computer,
a replacement battery provided by HP, or a compatible battery purchased as an accessory from
HP.

computer from damage caused by a virus, a security breach, a
power surge, unsafe operation, or system failure.
Protecting the computer from viruses
When you use the computer for e-mail, network, or Internet
access, you expose it to computer viruses that can disable the
operating system, applications, or utilities or cause them to
function abnormally.
Antivirus software can detect most viruses, destroy them, and
in most cases repair damage they have caused. To provide
ongoing protection against newly discovered viruses, antivirus
software must be kept up to date.

Routine Care
Cleaning the display
To remove smudges and lint, frequently clean the display with a
soft, damp, lint-free cloth. If the screen requires additional
cleaning, use premoistened antistatic wipes or an antistatic screen
cleaner.
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent permanent damage to the computer, never
spray water, cleaning fluids, or chemicals on the display.
Cleaning the TouchPad and keyboard
Dirt and grease on the TouchPad can cause the pointer to jump
around on the screen. To avoid this, clean the TouchPad with a
damp cloth, and wash your hands frequently when using the
computer.
Å
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to internal
components, do not use a vacuum cleaner attachment to clean the
keyboard. A vacuum cleaner could deposit household debris on the
keyboard surface.
Clean the keyboard regularly to prevent keys from sticking and to
remove dust, lint, and particles that can become trapped beneath
the keys. A can of compressed air with a straw extension can be
used to blow air around and under the keys to loosen and remove
debris.

a drive, or loss of information, remove the medium from a
drive before removing the drive from a drive bay, and
before shipping, storing, or traveling with a drive.
c. Turn off and then disconnect all external devices.
d. Shut down the computer.
■
Take along a backup of your information. Keep the backup
separate from the computer.
■
When traveling by air, carry the computer as hand luggage,
and do not check it in with the rest of your bags.
Ä
C–2
Avoid exposing a drive to magnetic fields. Security devices
with magnetic fields include airport walk-through devices
and security wands. The airport security devices that check
carry-on luggage, such as conveyor belts, use x-rays instead
of magnetism and will not damage a drive.
■
If you plan to use the computer during a flight, check with the
airline in advance. In-flight computer use is at the discretion
of the airline.
■
If the computer will be unused and disconnected from
external power for more than 2 weeks, remove the battery and
store it separately.
■
If you are shipping the computer or a drive, place it in a
bubble-pack mailer or other suitable protective packaging and
label the package “FRAGILE.”

If the computer has a wireless device or a cell phone device
installed, such as an 802.11b/g, a Global System for Mobile
Communications (GSM), or a General Packet Radio Service
(GPRS) device, the use of these devices may be restricted in
some environments. Such restrictions may apply onboard
aircraft, in hospitals, near explosives, in hazardous locations,
and so on. If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the
use of a particular device, ask for authorization to use it
before you turn it on.
■
If you are traveling internationally, follow these suggestions:
❏ Check the computer-related customs regulations for each
country on your itinerary.
❏ Consult with Customer Care about power cord and
