Touchscreen Entry

Note:
Note:
The touchscreen input performs the same function as the mouse that is used to point to and click
elements on a desktop computer. A stylus is used in the same manner as a mouse – single tap or
double tap to select menu options, drag the stylus across text to select, hold the stylus down to
activate slider bars, etcetera.
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. The touchscreen responds to an actuation force
(touch) of up to 4 oz. of pressure.
The touchscreen can be used in conjunction with the keyboard and scanner and an input/output
device connected to one of the VX3X's serial port.
Note:

Right Click

A right click can be simulated on the touchscreen. To perform a right click, touch the touchscreen
with the stylus and hold it in the same location for a short time.
Note:
