Pen Stylus Input

The PEN*KEY 6642 Pen Computer is equipped with a pen

stylus to select items displayed on the LCD screen and to

input text and drawings.

Selecting an Item (pointing)

To select an item, press the pen on the item to be selected

and then remove the pen, without moving it on the display.

ing the left mouse button. This operation is used to select

menu items, click buttons and select icons.
Making two consecutive taps is called double-tapping." A

double-tap is equivalent to double-clicking the left mouse

button. This operation is used to start up programs or select

functions.

Moving Items/Resizing Windows

To move an item, touch the pen to the item and then slide

the pen over the screen (keeping it in contact with the

screen) to the desired location. This operation is called

dragging." This operation is equivalent to dragging with a

mouse, and is used to move windows, etc.
To resize a window, drag the window edge.

Inputting Text

If your application supports handwriting recognition, you

may input text directly with the pen stylus, much like writing

with paper and pencil. An optional keyboard is available for

QWERTY input.

NOTE:

Because resistive film technology is used in the pen computers’
touch panel, the pen will not work properly if you place your hand on
the screen while writing with the pen stylus.
