Operating Basics
Using the AccuPoint
To use the AccuPoint, simply push it with your finger tip in the direction you
want to move the on-screen pointer.
Two buttons next to the AccuPoint are used like the buttons on a mouse
pointer. Press the left button to select a menu item or to manipulate text or
graphics designated by the pointer. Press the right button to display a menu
or other function depending on the software you are using.
AccuPoint precautions
Certain conditions can affect the on-screen pointer when using AccuPoint.
For example, the pointer may travel contrary to AccuPoint operation or an
error message may appear, if
■ You touch the AccuPoint during power-up.
■ You apply constant, soft pressure during power-up.
■ There is a sudden temperature change.
■ Strong stress is applied to the AccuPoint.
If an error message appears, reboot the computer. If an error message
does not appear, wait a moment for the pointer to stop, then continue
operation.
You can also tap the AccuPoint control buttons to perform functions similar
to those of the left button.
Click: Tap once
Double-click: Tap twice
Drag and drop: Tap to select the material you want to move. Leave
your finger on the AccuPoint control buttons after the second tap and
move the material.
If AccuPoint is tilted in a certain direction for some time and the finger is
then removed, the cursor on the screen may move in the reverse direction.
