2.8 Using the Pen
The touchscreen pen is a tool supplied with the MARS-3100R/S. It is used exclu-
sively as a control device for the touchscreen. It resembles a regular ballpoint pen.
Instead of a regular onscreen cursor, the pen contacts the surface of the screen.
Onscreen objects may be activated or moved with the pen. Whenever using the pen,
do not press too hard on the touchscreen. Only moderate pressure is required to acti-
vate touchscreen sensors. The pen is configured to function much like an ordinary
PC mouse.
! Touch, hold and drag: To move an object from one part of the screen to
another, or to copy an object from the desktop to another memory device, place
the tip of the pen onto the object and hold it while dragging the object across the
screen to the desired location.
! Double-click: Tap the pen twice on an onscreen object to activate a program,
or to open a selected folder.
