Keyboard and Pointing Devices

Using the TouchPad

The TouchPad performs the same basic operations as a mouse. It functions with any software that supports a Microsoft-compatible mouse. The TouchPad 1 includes left 2 and right 3 TouchPad buttons for function or application selection. To operate the TouchPad, slide your finger across its surface in the direction you want to move the cursor and click the left or right button to make a selection or complete an activity.
