User Guide 11
The monitor has touch capability due to a touch-sensitive screen installed. A touch screen is an input device just like a mouse or a keyboard, and the user’s hand transmits position information via the touch screen to the computer. With this technology, you only need to touch the pictures or words on the computer display lightly with your finger, and the computer will react.
Prior to first use or whenever the touch screen reacts in a different place where you are touching it, start the calibration program. The procedure is as follows:
1.In Windows 7, Select “Start” – “Control Panel”.
2.In Control Panel, select “Hardware and Sound”.
3.In “Hardware and Sound” window, select “Tablet PC Settings”.
4.In “Tablet PC Settings” dialogue, click “Calibrate” button.
The Touch screen supports single touch and rotational movements, enlargement and reduction multi-touch operations, and the user can transmit position information to the computer via touch. The touch screen uses a very low pressure movement recognition method, which only needs the finger to move lightly on the computer display screen or make a simple hand gesture to be detected by the main computer processor.
2.2.1 Basic Hand Gestures
1. Single Click / Double Click
For the item selected on the touch screen, touch it one or two times with finger, to perform a single click or double click operation. This is similar to the action performed by clicking the mouse left button.
12 User Guide
2. Single Finger Right Click
For the item selected on the touch screen, press and hold your finger on the screen until a circle appears. After lifting your finger from the touch screen, a menu bar will pop up, completing the single finger right click operation. This is similar to the action performed by clicking the mouse right button.
User Guide 13
3. Double Finger Right Click
First touch a finger to the screen to select the desired item and hold it there, then touch another finger anywhere nearby on the screen and quickly lift it up again, to complete a double finger right click operation. The area where the first finger is placed can be used to show the right-click menu or perform related operations.
1 2
4. Dragging Movement
First touch your finger on the desired item on the screen and hold it there, then make a dragging movement. This is similar to the click and drag movement you can make with a mouse.
14 User Guide
5. High Speed Slide
If you touch the screen with a single finger and slide it a short distance horizontally (about 5 cm), then quickly lift it up again, this is called a High Speed Slide, and the screen will show the “Forward” or “Back” icon.
In the default situation, a high speed horizontal sliding movement will execute a forward or back operation. For example: Forward and Back operations for the IE browser; or Previous and Next slide operations in Windows Photo Viewer slideshow mode.
about 5 FP
6. Rolling Movement
When you move your finger one time vertically (or horizontally) on the touch screen, this is called a Rolling Operation. For example: This operation is similar to moving the scroll wheel on the top of a mouse, and produces the same results as the scroll wheel interface does.
User Guide 15
7. Zoom Operation
Touch two fingers lightly on the desired item on the touch screen, then keeping both fingers on the screen, change the distance between them. By increasing (or decreasing) the distance, you can perform a zoom out (or zoom in) operation. For example: you can enlarge or reduce the picture size in Windows Photo Viewer.
8. Rotation Operation
Use two figures to touch the desired item on the touch screen, then rotate them in the desired direction. For example: you can rotate the picture which is being displayed in Windows Photo Viewer.
