Using MeetingBoard pens
How you use a pen depends on which mode you are using:
IMPORTANT: Store pens horizontally for maximum battery life.
Pen buttons function as mouse buttons in Interactive Mode:
n Pen tip is the same as a mouse's left button. Use it to click and drag.
n Lower button (nearest the pen tip) is the same as a mouse's left button. Use it to click and drag.
n Upper button (farthest from the pen tip) is the same as a mouse's right button.
Sleep mode assures pens operate over the longest time. After 20 seconds of inactivity, a pen automatically enters sleep mode. This
enables its battery to provide several months of service.

Interactive Mode.

the pens can mark directly on the MeetingBoard writing
surface in PC Whiteboard Mode and Color Copyboard Mode.

the pen's tip on the MeetingPad's surface, then move the pen across the
surface. Marks you make are projected as "electronic ink" onto the
MeetingBoard surface. Use the pen buttons as you would use mouse
buttons (see below).
