Using the iPronto

Once you have adjusted the general settings and network settings, you can start using the iPronto. In this chapter you read how to operate the touch screen, what the hard buttons are for and how you can use the iPronto’s applications and functions.

The Touch Screen

The iPronto has a touch screen. You can operate the touch screen in two ways. One way is to use the plastic-tipped stylus. It is specially designed for use on a touch screen. The stylus is very useful if you want to tap a small area on the touch screen, because it is very precise.

Warning Never use an actual pen, pencil or other sharp object. These objects can damage the touch screen.

You can also operate the touch screen with your fingers. Fingers are less precise than the stylus, but you may find it more comfortable to use your fingers on the touch screen.

The Status Display

Below the touch screen, the iPronto has a small screen. This second screen is always on, even when the iPronto has been switched off. It displays the time and battery status.

The status display also displays an RF icon and an IR icon. Whenever the iPronto is communicating over your home network, the RF icon is on. The IR icon gives you feedback when you are using the iPronto’s remote control: every time you tap a button on the touch screen or press a hard button that sends an IR code to your device, the IR icon flashes.
