Using the Stylus

Your iPAQ Pocket PC comes with a stylus that you should use to tap or write on your screen.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to your iPAQ Pocket PC screen, never

use any device other than the stylus that comes with the Pocket PC or an approved replacement to tap or write on the screen. If you lose or break your stylus, you can order extras at

www.hp.com/go/ipaqaccessories.

You can perform three basic actions using the stylus:

Tap —Lightly touch the screen to select or open an item. Lift the stylus after you tap an item. Tapping is equivalent to clicking an item with the mouse on your computer.

Drag—Place the point of the stylus on the screen and drag an item across the screen without lifting the stylus until you have completed the selection. Dragging is equivalent to dragging with the left mouse button pressed on your computer.

Tap and hold—Hold the stylus pointer on an item for a short time until a menu displays. Tapping and holding is equivalent to right-clicking your computer mouse button. When you tap and hold, a circle of red dots appears around the stylus to indicate that the menu will soon pop up.

When you turn on your iPAQ Pocket PC for the first time, you are requested to select your time zone. After setting the time zone, you still need to set the time and date on your unit. All three settings are located in the Clock Settings screen and can be set at the same time.

Note: By default, the time on the iPAQ Pocket PC is synchronized with your computer each time the two devices connect using ActiveSync.

Using the Touchpad or Cursor

The touch-sensitive pad on your HP iPAQ senses the position of a person's finger on its surface to provide screen navigation, cursor movement, and interactive input. Use your touchpad to select items, scroll, launch applications, and cursor control.

The touchpad is similar to using a mouse. Here are some terms used when using the touchpad or cursor.

■ Center Tap selects an item or launches an application.

■ Ta pp in g means quickly touching and then lifting your finger

off the Touchpad surface.

■ Swipe Gesture swipes a specified number of steps in the

direction you swipe (vertical or horizontal).

■ Swipe-and-Hold provides continuous scrolling in the

direction you want to scroll.

Personalizing Your Touchpad Settings

You can personalize the following settings for your HP iPAQ touchpad:

■ Touchpad sensitivity allows you to control how much finger

pressure is required to move the pointer at a particular speed.

■ Scrolling Rate specifies how many steps a Swipe gesture or

a Swipe-and-Hold gesture scrolls when you are in Navigation Mode.

■ Cursor Speed allows you to adjust how quickly the cursor

moves in your iPAQ screen when you are in Cursor Mode.

For more information on your HP iPAQ touchpad, refer to the online help on your HP iPAQ or go to the Synaptics NavPoint tutorial located on the Companion CD. To locate the online help, go to the Start menu > Help > ...<need new ROM to fill in>.
