Pointing Device; Using The Touchpad - Asus E2224 User Manual

Pointing Device

The Notebook PC's integrated touchpad pointing
device is fully compatible with all two/three-button
and scrolling knob PS/2 mice. The touchpad is
pressure sensitive and contains no moving parts;
therefore, mechanical failures can be avoided. A
device driver is still required for working with some
application software.
IMPORTANT! Do not use any objects in
place of your finger to operate the touch-
pad or else damage may occur to the
touchpad's surface.

Using the Touchpad

Light pressure with the tip of your finger is all that
is required to operate the touchpad. Because the
touchpad is electrostatic sensitive, objects cannot
be used in place of your fingers. The touchpad's
primary function is to move the cursor around or
select items displayed on the screen with the use of
your fingertip instead of a standard desktop mouse.
The following illustrations demonstrate proper use
of the touchpad.
Moving The Cursor
Place your finger in the center of the touchpad and
slide in a direction to move the cursor.
