Using the Notebook PC
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 electrostatic 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
touchpad 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.
Scrolling (on selected models)
Slide your finger up or down on the right side
to scroll a window up or down.
NOTE: A software-controlled scrolling
function is available after setting up the
included touchpad utility to allow easy
Windows or web navigation.
