CALIBRATING THE PEN

Calibration of the pen adjusts the cursor position on the screen relative to the position of the pen tip. You calibrate the pen to adjust the distance error between where the pen actually touches the screen and where the system “thinks” the pen is touching. If the event you wish to invoke is not displayed under the pen tip when you use the pen, you should calibrate the pen.

Pen calibration may be required due to the following situations:

The pen is being used for the first time.

The previous user of the Stylistic ST4000P Series pen tablet PC writes with the opposite hand or at a different pen angle.

The system has been in use for some time and the pen has not been recalibrated.

The original system image has been restored.

To Calibrate the Pen

1.Open the Control Panel from the StartSettings menu, and double-tap the Pen Configuration icon. In the Setup Property page, tap on [Calibrate] to start calibration.

2.Position the Stylistic ST4000P Series pen tablet PC as you normally would during use. Be sure to hold the pen at the angle that you regularly use. Touch the screen only with the pen tip; inadvertently touching the screen with your finger or hand during the calibration process, may result in faulty calibration.

3.Perform the calibration steps according to the instructions on the screen. The calibration utility displays a cross-hair symbol in the corners of the screen, one corner at a time. Hold the pen as you normally would while using the system and, as accurately as possible, tap the center of each crosshair as it is displayed.

4.When the Verify New Pen Calibration Settings window appears, choose one of the following steps.

If you are satisfied that you tapped the cross-hairs accurately, tap Yes. The taps that you performed in step 3 are then used to calibrate the screen.

If you do not want to use the new calibration, tap No.

If you want to enter a new calibration, tap Recalibrate. The calibration instructions reappear.

If you don’t tap the screen within 20 seconds, the default settings will be used.

U s i n g Y o u r S t y l i s t i c S T 4 0 0 0 P

If you have successfully performed the procedure above, the pen is now recalibrated, and you can use the system as you normally would.

Replacing the Pen

With use, the pen tip may become worn or may pick up foreign particles that can scratch the screen. A damaged or worn tip may not move freely, causing unpredictable results when using the pen. If your pen exhibits these problems, contact your reseller to purchase replacements.

USING HOVERING MODE

Selecting the Pen Hovering application button on the Stylistic ST4000P Series pen tablet PC provides you with better cursor control. When the hovering option is enabled, the cursor can be positioned over an icon without activating it. This is useful when you are performing procedures that require accurate cursor posi- tioning, such as when simulating mouse rollover, selecting a small icon, or beginning a paint session.

To enable hovering, press the Function button

and the Right-Click button

at the same

time.

To disable hovering, press the Function button

and the Right-Click button again.

For help on Normal/Special Hover mode settings in the Pen Configuration applet, press [F1] to invoke help from within the applet.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

The Stylistic ST4000P Series battery can be charged while it is installed in the pen tablet PC. To do so:

1.Connect a DC power source, such as the AC adapter, to the DC input connector on the pen tablet PC. The DC Input icon appears in the Status display. If the battery charge is below 90%, the battery begins charging and the Charging icon appears in the Status display. If the battery charge is 90% or higher when you connect DC power, the battery will not charge, preventing battery overcharging.

2.Look at the Battery Gauge icon in the Status display to determine the percent of charge in the battery. See “Status Display” in Chapter 1 of this manual for a description of the Battery Gauge icon.

As long as DC power remains connected to the pen tablet PC, the charging process continues until the battery charge reaches 100%. Charge times shown in Table 2-2, “Battery Charging Time" are for a fully discharged battery charging both while the pen tablet PC is and is not in use.
