Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP)
To open the Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP), tap the TIP icon located next to the
Start button. From this window, you can enter hand-written data, use the on-
screen keyboard, or enter information by voice.
Brightness The Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) built into the Tablet PC detects light in
the environment and adjusts the display brightness.
Available Settings:
Off
Turns off the display back light
Fixed
Maintains a fixed brightness level on the display that
remains constant under varying light conditions
Dynamic Maintains a relative brightness level on the display in
varying light settings using the ALS
NOTE: For optimal battery life benefits and viewability from the ALS, we
recommend that you set the brightness slider to the mid-point or slightly
above or below mid-point. If you set the slider higher than this, you lose
some of the battery-saving benefits while gaining minimal improvement
in viewability.
