Tapping The Touch Screen With A Stylus - Honeywell MX8 User Manual

Vibration can also be set using Start > Settings > System > Data Collection > Notification tab. Since the Data Collection
Wedge uses the operating system interface to sound beeps, if the volume/vibrate icon is set to anything other than On,
Wedge beeps do not sound. Wedge vibration is not affected by these settings.

Tapping the Touch Screen with a Stylus

Note: Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the touch screen.
Never use an actual pen, pencil, or sharp/abrasive object to write on the touch screen.
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. A stylus replacement kit is available.
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 touch screen is the basic action that can:
• Open applications
• Choose menu commands
• Select options in dialog boxes or drop-down boxes
• Drag the slider in a scroll bar
• Select text by dragging the stylus across the text
• Place the cursor in a text box prior to typing in data
• 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.
Use keypad shortcuts instead of the stylus:
• Press TAB and an Arrow key to select a file.
• After a file is selected, press Enter to open the file.
• Press the Del key to delete a file.
