Elonex eTouch 702ET Quick Start Guide

Menu Icons

At the top of your screen are the Menu icons. These give you important
information about the status of the eTouch™ as well as options and shortcuts.

You can quickly see whether you are connected to Wi-Fi (the number of Wi-Fi
bars increase or decrease depending on the signal strength), the amount of
charge in your battery, or increase or decrease the volume. Tap the Back
button to go back to the previous screen.

Tap the Menu Icon at any time to bring up a menu of options relevant
to the screen you have open. For example on the home screen, tapping the
menu icon brings up ways to change your homescreen, and if you have the
eMail app open the menu icon brings up options to do with your eMail.

Program Menu

On the right hand side of your home screen is the Program menu icon. Tap
the square icon in the centre to open a menu of your installed apps. To open
an app just tap it once and it will launch.

Using Apps

Advanced Task Killer
Your eTouch ‘multi-tasks’ so programs are never shut down until you
turn the tablet o. With too many programs open you may notice a drop in
performance so its best to periodically close some down. To do this, swipe
the Advanced Task Killer icon downwards, tap “open Advanced Task Killer”,
then un-tick the apps you wish to keep open and tap “KILL selected apps” to
close the selected apps.

then automatically scan for
available Wi-Fi hotspots.

:: Select the desired Wi-Fi hotspot
from the list.

:: If the hotspot doesn't have a
password it will automatically
connect, however if it ‘secure’, a
password window will pop up
letting you enter the correct
password. For password details
refer to your ISP or the sta at the
internet cafe/coee shop etc.

:: You should now be connected and
can surf the Internet by tapping
the Browser icon. To view a web
page tap the white bar at the top

Wi-Fi Connection
Troubleshooting

If you have trouble connecting to
your Wi-Fi please check the
following:
:: Check you have included any
CaPiTaL letters as most passwords
are case sensitive
:: Check you haven’t got CAPS lock
toggled ON.
:: Check you have the correct
password for the hotspot and it
hasn’t been changed.

If you still can’t connect there may
be a temporary conict with your
router’s security authentication.
Please contact your Internet Service
Provider, requesting to temporarily
lower the router’s security
encryption to WEP which will allow
the Tablet to connect to the
internet.

Once connected, you should have
no further problems with getting
online you can request that the ISP
return the encryption to its former
status. This can all be done over the
phone in a couple of minutes.

Connecting to a PC

The easiest way of transferring les to and from your tablet is using a Micro SD

cable. With the eTouch turned ON, connect the cable between the Micro USB
port on the top of your eTouch to the USB port on your PC or laptop. Swipe the
notication bar at the top of the screen downwards to show a notication
“USB Connected, Select to copy les to/from your computer”. Tap this and
then “Turn on USB Storage” to enable data transfer.
On your PC or laptop the tablet will show up as
“Removable Device” (just like a normal USB stick)
and you can drag and drop, or copy and paste les
to and from the eTouch’s folder.

Battery Charging

Your eTouch™ has a built in

The eTouch™ is supplied with no
charge in the battery and we
recommend that you charge the
battery for around 8 Hours for its
rst charge, to achieve the best
battery life.

Your eTouch™ comes with built in
storage but will also support up to
a huge 32GB Micro SD card to store
your favourite music, movies and
photos.

To insert a micro SD Card
Insert the card with the metallic
connectors facing downward until
you feel a click which will lock the
card into place.

To remove an SD Card
Go to Settings > SD Card and
device storage settings then tap
‘Unmount SD Card’ to allow you to
safely disconnect the card from the
Tablet. Push the card gently
inwards until you hear a click and
then it will pop out.

About your

touchscreen navigating around the
eTouch™ is as easy as a quick swipe
of your ngertips. The Android™ OS
is specically designed with large
buttons and icons which suit the
size of your ngers. You can touch,
tap and swipe the screen, just like

suit your lifestyle. For example you can set up one screen with your favourite
apps on it, another screen with widgets to your favourite social networking
sites and another page with shortcuts to your work les.
To access your other home screens you can simply touch the screen and swipe
it left or right.

home screen. A pop-up menu will appear so you can choose your widget
which will appear on the home screen. To move it around the home screen tap
and hold the icon until it becomes larger, then drag it to where you want it.

To delete a widget or shortcut, tap and hold the icon then drag it to the
recycle bin. The recycle bin icon appears in your program menu on the right
hand side of the screen.
