1.3.5 About the touchscreen display
The unit display includes touchscreen functionality which allows you to operate most display controls by
touching the screen. You should use a plastic stylus or a similar device. It is recommended to avoid using
your fingers because it is difficult to control selections with precision.
CAUTION: Never use a sharp or metallic object which will damage the screen. Likewise,
do not use a ballpoint pen, pencil, or any other writing device which will mar
the screen.
For new units, units with new firmware, or units with a new battery, a calibration of the touchscreen
should be performed. For more information, see Calibrate Touchscreen on page 4-10.
1.3.6 Selecting the active interface
While testing with the unit, the first step is to select the appropriate interface with one of the function
keys, such as the 10/100 or Wi-Fi interface, or perhaps another interface associated with an attached
module. The interface and any associated hardware remain active only while testing in the respective
area continues. If you switch to a different interface, the previous interface shuts down and loses its IP
configuration, if any. For example, if you switch from the Wi-Fi interface to the 10/100 interface, the Wi-Fi
interface will shut down and any IP configuration will be lost.
An exception exists with the Wi-Fi interface, which can be optionally configured to remain active all the
time. For more information, see Wireless ON/OFF on page 4-9.
