Touch Screen
HHP recommends using screen protectors to protect the touch screen; especially when used with applications that require high-
volume interfacing with the touch screen. Screen protectors help prevent damage to the touch screen display and are easily
installed. Screen protectors can be purchased at any major computer retail store or directly from HHP.
F or touch screen input, use the included stylus or your finger. The method you choose depends on which one is
appropriate for your application. While there is a great deal of variation in different applications, for buttons or icons that
are close together, you generally achieve greater accuracy with the stylus. Use of other objects, such as paper clips,
pencils, or ink pens can damage the input panel and will void the warranty.
