Using the EZ Pad touchpad
The EZ Pad consists of a touchpad, two buttons, and a rocker switch.
When you move your finger on the touchpad, the pointer (arrow) on the screen
moves in the same direction.
You can use the EZ-Pad left and right buttons below the touchpad to select
objects. You can scroll, zoom, autoscroll, and pan using the rocker switch
between the touchpad buttons. Scrolling capabilities are available in some
Windows applications, including Microsoft Office.

need to move the pointer farther, lift your
finger, move it to the middle of the touchpad,
then continue moving your finger.
Select an object on the screen. Position the pointer over the object. Press the
left button below the touchpad once. This
action is called clicking.
