Calibrating and Using Your Pen
NOTE: The Function button and eraser functionality of the pen are not
enabled when used with the Touch Screen Tablet PC.
Be sure to calibrate your pen in both portrait and landscape orientations the first
time you start your Tablet PC, then again at other times if the cursor does not seem
to line up with the pen tip. Calibration ensures the accuracy of the pen and adjusts
the input angle for each person who uses it. The Tablet PC stores calibration data
and settings on a per-user basis.
1. Open the Motion Dashboard and tap Calibrate Digitizer. Or
double-tap the Tablet and Pen Settings icon in the system tray,
located in the lower-right corner of the display window. This
opens the Tablet and Pen Settings window.
NOTE: The Tablet and Pen Settings icon may be hidden in the system
tray. Tap the system tray left-arrow to show all hidden icons.
2. Hold the pen naturally, angled as if you are writing with a ballpoint pen, and
tap the pen point in the center of each of the four calibration crosshairs as
they appear. During calibration, try to position the Tablet PC as close to the
way you will use it as possible, whether holding it in portrait or landscape
orientation or using it in a FlexDock for the LE-Series, with a Convertible
Keyboard, or with an LS-Series MobileDock. Changing the pen or display
angles affects the calibration.
3. If you change the orientation, you may need to calibrate the pen again.
When using the pen as a cursor, you can determine if you are in the right place to
select a menu item. For example, look at the position of the pointer on the screen,
not where the pen touches the display.
WARNING: Do not write on the Tablet PC display with ink pens or
other sharp objects that could damage it. Do not use markers that
could damage the display.
