Getting to Know Your HP iPAQ

Using the Stylus

Your HP iPAQ comes with a stylus that you should use to tap or write on your screen.

ÄCAUTION: To prevent damage to your HP iPAQ screen, never use any device other than the stylus that comes with it or an approved replacement to tap or write on the screen. If you lose or break your stylus, you can order extras at www.hp.com/go/ipaqaccessories.

You can perform three basic actions using the stylus:

Tap—Lightly touch the screen to select or open an item. Lift the stylus after you tap an item. Tapping is equivalent to clicking an item with the mouse on your computer.

Drag—Place the point of the stylus on the screen and drag an item across the screen without lifting the stylus until you have completed the selection. Dragging is equivalent to dragging with the left mouse button pressed on your computer.

Tap and hold—Hold the stylus pointer on an item for a short time until a menu displays. Tapping and holding is equivalent to right-clicking your computer mouse button. When you tap and hold, a circle of red dots appears around the stylus to indicate that the menu will soon pop up.

Setting the Date and Time

When you turn on your HP iPAQ for the first time, you are requested to select your time zone. After setting the time zone, you still need to set the time and date on your unit. All three settings are located in the Clock Settings screen and can be set at the same time.

Note: By default, the time on the HP iPAQ is synchronized with your computer each time the two devices connect using ActiveSync.
