than a mouse. Actions can be performed using any combination of

keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping.

3.1 Navigating A Touchscreen

Note: If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accu-

rately, it may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The

Touchscreen” on page 29.

Units are equipped with a stylus—a pointing tool that looks like a

pen. It is used to select objects on the touchscreen.
Note: To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only the stylus

(pen) supplied with your unit.

To open a file, launch an applet or open a folder:

• Double-tap on the appropriate icon.

To navigate through a dialog box – for example, display the informa-

tion in a tab, choose a radio button, check a checkbox and so on:

• Tap the stylus on a tab, radio button, checkbox and so on.

3.2 Navigating Using The Keyboard

Note: Refer to “The Keyboard” on page 23 for more detail about

the keyboard keys.

If the touchscreen has been disabled, you can choose icons and navi-

gate dialog boxes, display the desktop, and so on using the keyboard.
Keep in mind that unlike a desktop computer, vehicle-mounts do not

support key chording (pressing two keys at the same time). You must

press one key followed by the next in sequence.
