Digitizing Tablet
The Pointmaker Digitizing Tablet, similar to the one diagrammed below,
comes standard with the PVI-65. In general, the tablet is used to draw, position
pointers or make menu selections. The position and movements of the stylus
(also called a pen) are represented on whatever display devices are activated.
Additionally, most setup commands can be activated using the tablet rather
than entering the menu system (See “Menu Basics” on page 25).
Refer back to this section, if needed, for general instructions concerning the
tablet’s operation.
