Chapter 1 Introduction

Starting Your Handheld and Calibrating the Screen

The first time you start the iQue handheld, setup instructions appear on the screen. These instructions include a calibration screen,

or digitizer. Calibration aligns the internal circuitry of the handheld with its touch-sensitive screen so your handheld can detect

stylus taps correctly. If you notice that the handheld does not respond properly when you tap the screen with the stylus, you may

need to calibrate the screen again.

To calibrate your screen:

1. Tap the

Home (Applications Launcher) icon

. Then tap the

Prefs icon

(you may need to scroll down).

2. In the pick list in the upper right corner of the screen, tap

Digitizer.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Adjusting the Brightness of Your Screen

To turn the backlight on or off:

1. Press the

Power button to turn on the device.

2. Press and hold the

Power button until the backlight turns on or off. Then release the button.

To adjust the backlight brightness:

1. Tap the

Backlight icon , located in the Status Bar just below the text input area.

2. Tap and drag the brightness adjustment slider to the desired level. Then tap

Done.

Brightness Adjustment Slider

NOTE: Backlight is the most significant factor in reducing or lengthening battery life. Turning the brightness up and/or

keeping the backlight on can reduce battery life significantly.
