Using the Point 1600 Pen Tablet
Shutting Down the System 2
When you shut down your system, the pen tablet enters the Off power state. If you will
not be using the pen tablet for an extended period of time (several days), you should
shut down the system to prevent the battery pack from discharging completely.
To shut down the system,
1. If system operation is suspended, resume system operation.
2. Ensure that all valuable data in open files and applications is saved.
3. Choose Shut Down from the Start menu and carry out the Shut Down command.
4. Wait while Windows shuts down your system. The system turns off automatically.
The system is now in the Off state.
Note: If you are storing the system, ensure that a charged battery pack is installed to
prevent the bridge battery from becoming discharged. The system continues to draw
a very small amount of power while in the Off state. When the battery pack charge
drops below a predetermined threshold (lower than the Critically Low threshold),
the pen tablet draws power from the bridge battery.
Using the Pen 2
You can use the Point 1600 pen (included with the pen tablet) to select items and run
programs on the Point 1600 pen tablet much as you would use a mouse on a desktop
computer. The pen can be used like a two-button mouse. Programs that support
handwriting recognition allow you to write characters directly on the screen with the
pen.
Caution
• Ensure that a screen protector is installed on the pen tablet
display screen before you use the pen. See “Protecting the
Display Screen” on page 3-1 for details.
• The warranty does not cover a screen that is scratched as
a result of not using a screen protector.
• Do not use a ballpoint pen or any sharp object on the pen
tablet. Doing so can mar or scratch the screen surface.
