Adjusting screen brightness
If lighting conditions make it difficult for you to see the information on your
handheld, you can adjust the brightness of the screen backlight.
To adjust the brightness of the backlight:
1. Tap the Brightness icon in the upper-right corner of the Graffiti 2 writing area.
TIP You can also press and hold the power button for about two seconds to
access brightness control. In addition, you can assign the full-screen pen stroke
to access the brightness control. See
“Pen Preferences” in Chapter 22 for
details.
2. Drag the slider to adjust the brightness.
TIP You can also press Up or Down on the navigator to adjust the brightness.
3. Tap Done.
Indicator light Serves as an alert for Date Book, World Clock, Note Pad, or
Voice Memo alarms. It also indicates the battery-charging
status when your handheld is in the cradle/cable.
Power button/
brightness control Turns your handheld on or off. If your handheld is turned
off, pressing the power button turns the handheld on and
returns you to the last screen you viewed.
If your handheld is turned on, you can turn it off by pressing
the power button. You can also press and hold the power
button down for about two seconds to access brightness
control. For more information, see
“Adjusting screen
brightness” later in this chapter.

use the stylus, gently press the top of the stylus to release it
from the slot, and then pull it out of the slot and hold it as
you would a pen or pencil.
