Virtual keyboard A virtual keyboard is available for text input while using a touchscreen. To open the virtual keyboard, tap the screen and then tap the Input Panel tab that appears on the left edge of the screen. When you open the virtual keyboard, it will appear on top of any open windows. You may move it to a convenient position on the screen. You can customize the virtual keyboard settings by selecting Start > Control Panel > Tablet PC Settings and in the Other tab select Go to Input Panel Settings. Calibrating your screen You may find that you need to recalibrate the screen if it does not react properly to a tap. To do this select Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Tablet PC Settings. On the Display tab, select Calibrate.... Follow the instructions to calibrate the screen. Other options Additional configuration options are available in Start > Control Panel under Tablet PC settings and Pen and Touch. Note: Certain touchscreens have a thin layer of air between layers of glass and resistive touch film. Occasionally, a series of concentric shapes, called Newton's Rings, may appear due to the reflection of light between two surfaces with different temperatures and pressures. This is normal and the rings will disappear after a few minutes of use. Cleaning the touchscreen Touchscreens are delicate and no cleaning products should be used when cleaning the surface. Please follow the advice given in Cleaning your Computer on page 4. Volume Controls Apart from the volume controls on your computer, keyboard, or speakers (depending on your equipment), you can also adjust the volume and balance of your speakers from Windows. Adjusting the Volume To adjust the volume, simply click on the Speaker icon located in the Notification Area, next to the clock. Drag the slider up or down to adjust the volume. Click on the small speaker icon to mute the volume. Click again to resume playback. Click on Mixer to access advanced volume control settings. 8 - Quick Start & Troubleshooting Guide
