Chapter 2

Using the P oint 1600 P en Tablet

This chapter covers the fundamental concepts and system operations with which you need to be familiar to use the Point 1600 pen tablet including:
• Starting the pen tablet
• Using the pen
• Charging the battery pack
• Connecting to other equipment
• Shutting down the pen tablet
• Using hotpads
System Power States 2
Before you begin using the Point 1600 pen tablet, familiarize yourself with the different system power states that the pen tablet can use. Being familiar with these system states will help you determine whether it is appropriate to turn on, resume, suspend, or shut down the system when you begin a new session or end your current session. System behavior for each system power state (or mode) is described briefly in the following, with each system state listed in decreasing order of power usage:
Fully On state
The system is running and the display screen is on. The system responds to the pen or other input.
Idle and Standby state
Some system functions are r egulated or turned of f to conserve power. The display screen may be turned off (depending on how your system is configured). The system returns to the Fully On state when pen activity or other input is detected.
Suspend mode
System operation is suspended. Most system functions are turned off to conserve power. Power to memory remains on, maintaining active data including files and programs that were open or runn ing before system operation was suspended. The system does not respond to the pen.
Off state
All system functions are turned off to conserve power. The system does not respond to the pen or other input.
