Getting Started

The Motion™ C5 is a new type of computer designed for health care users, that integrates traditional computer features with data capture technologies, digital ink, and speech recognition.
The C5 is the first product in this new category, called the Mobile Clinical Assistant, and differs from other convertible and slate devices in the following ways:
Minimizes ports and connectors, creating a semi-sealed device that is easier to clean and
disinfect.
Includes several built-in data capture technologies—such as a bar code scanner, RFID
reader, and camera—that eliminate the need for bulky external devices.
Delivers an optimal balance of performance and portability.

If you have never used a Mobile Clinical Assistant or a pen-based computer, use the information in this section to get started quickly. If you have, skip to the next chapter to learn about the features of the Motion C5. If there is a particular feature you want to learn about, look on the Contents page. Because you typically use a pen instead of a mouse with the Motion C5, we use the term tap instead of click in most situations.

Step 2: Turn on the Motion C5
Press the power button.
As the Motion C5 starts, the power light comes on.
The first time Windows starts, the Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 Tutorials appear. If you do not want this screen to appear every time you start the computer, select Do not show me this again.
To run the tutorials later, select Start > All Programs > Tablet PC > Tablet PC Tutorials.
Step 3: Calibrate the digitizer
With the Motion C5, you will frequently use a pen instead of a mouse and keyboard to interact with the computer. Use the pen to move the pointer around the screen, and tap the screen to click. Use Tablet PC Input Panel (page 18) and handwriting recognition to enter text.
The digitizer detects the position of the pen. You should calibrate the digitizer the first time you start the C5, and again whenever the pointer does not align with the pen tip.
To calibrate the digitizer
1. Press the Dashboard button ( ) to start Motion Dashboard.
You can use Motion Dashboard to configure the Motion C5 and to start commonly used applications. See “Using Motion Dashboard” on page 16.
2. Under Pen, tap Calibrate Digitizer.
3. Follow the instructions in the calibration program.
