Using the pointing stick

Press the pointing stick in the direction you want to move the pointer on the screen. Use the left and

right pointing stick buttons as you would the left and right buttons on an external mouse.

Connecting an external mouse

You can connect an external USB mouse to the computer using one of the USB ports on the

computer. A USB mouse can also be connected to the system using the ports on an optional docking

device.

Using the pen

You can write with the pen in pen-specific programs such as the Tablet PC Input Panel, in all

Microsoft Office applications, and in most other Windows programs and utilities. The information you

write on the screen with the pen can be filed, searched, and shared among most Windows programs.

Identifying the pen components

The pen interacts with the tablet PC whenever the tip (1) or eraser (3) of the pen is approximately

1.27 cm (0.5 inch) from the screen. The pen button (2) emulates the functions of the right button on

an external mouse.

Holding the pen

Hold the pen as if you were writing with a standard pen or pencil. Position the pen in your hand so

that you will not accidentally press the pen button.

As you monitor the movements of the pen, focus on the pointer, not on the tip of the pen.
