Configuring virtual buttons

The virtual buttons at the top of the Dual Mode Pad are pre-
configured for the Email, ConfigFree, and Print functions. You can
assign different functions to these buttons if you wish.

5, and 6 in the Properties for Synaptics LuxPad window) are
unassigned by default. In order to use one of these buttons, you
must first configure that button so that it is associated with a
function.

Click OK to close the Mouse Properties window.

Using external display devices

connect an external display device to an available video port, as
follows:

An external monitor or projector via the RGB (monitor) port

A TV, VCR, or DVD recorder via the S-video (TV-out) port*

*(Available on certain models)

Before connecting an external monitor or video projector, configure
your computer for the type of device you are connecting. To do this,
refer to the documentation for your operating system and devices.

device and activate a screen with display options.
