Touch Screen Features
Always use the point of the digitizer for clicking or making strokes on the touch screen.
Never use an actual pen, pencil, or sharp/abrasive object on the touch screen.
The digitizer is used as if it were a pen or pencil. Touch the screen with the tip of the digitizer then
remove the digitizer from the screen.
After each use, replace the digitizer in the digitizer holder for proper care and to preserve the life of
the digitizer.
Using a digitizer is similar to moving the mouse pointer then left-clicking icons on a desktop
computer screen.
The following actions are available through the use of the digitizer:
■
Open applications
■
Choose commands in menu
■
Select options in dialog box or drop-down menu
■
Drag the scroll bar
■
Drag across the text to select content
■
Place the cursor in a text box before typing
A right click is generated by tapping the mouse icon in the system tray. After tapping, the mouse
icon highlights the right button of the icon in red. The next touch screen tap is treated as a right
click. The mouse icon returns to the left button highlighted in red so subsequent taps are treated
as left clicks.
A digitizer replacement kit is available.
To prevent damage or malfunction, always dry the touch screen when wet.

Using the Digitizer
Following the information below when using a digitizer:
■
Use only the included digitizer to touch the screen. Do not place any objects on its surface
and do not press down strongly with sharp-pointed or hard objects that may leave marks
(e.g., nails, pencils and ball point pens).
■
Use the digitizer only for touching the screen. Using it for any other purpose may damage the
digitizer and result in scratches on the screen.
■
The digitizer uses electromagnetic induction and may not work properly near strong electrical
field or magnetic field such as:
■
Near AM radio base stations or relay station antennas
■
Near CRT displays that generate strong electromagnetic field noise
Move the digitizer away from such locations so it works properly.
■
The pointer cannot follow the digitizer movement if you move the digitizer too quickly.
To make a selection, tap the screen once with the digitizer. To double-click, tap twice without
pausing. To do a right-click, tap the screen once and hold the tip of the digitizer on the screen, the
right-click icon appears. Press the click button is the same as a right click.
Getting Started
