Tapping the Touchscreen with a Stylus
Tapping the Touchscreen with a Stylus
Note: Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the touchscreen.
Never use an actual pen, pencil, or sharp/abrasive object to write on the touchscreen.
Hold the stylus as if it were a pen or pencil. Touch an element on the screen with the tip of the stylus then remove the stylus
from the screen.
Firmly press the stylus into the stylus holder when the stylus is not in use.
Using a stylus is similar to moving the mouse pointer then left-clicking icons on a desktop computer screen.
Using the stylus to tap icons on the touchscreen is the basic action that can:
l Open applications
l Choose menu commands
l Select options in dialog boxes or drop-down boxes
l Drag the slider in a scroll bar
l Select text by dragging the stylus across the text
l Place the cursor in a text box prior to typing in data
l Place the cursor in a text box prior to retrieving data using a scanner/imager or an input/output device connected to a
serial port.
A right click is generated by tapping the mouse icon in the system tray. After tapping, the mouse icon highlights the
right button of the icon in red. The next touchscreen tap is treated as a right click. The mouse icon returns to the left
button highlighted in red so subsequent taps are treated as left clicks.
A stylus replacement kit is available.
