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.

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

You can connect an external USB mouse to the computer using one of the USB ports on the computer.
A USB mouse can also be connected to the system using the ports on an optional docking device or
expansion product.

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?]

●

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.
