sensitive screen. Tapping is the basic action used to execute tasks on your
pda phone.
IMPORTANT: Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or
making strokes on the pda phone screen. Do not use a pen, pencil, or any
other sharp object to write on the pda phone screen. If you misplace your
stylus, please contact the supply provider.
With your pda phone turned on, you can tap the pda phone screen to
perform many operations, such as the following:
Open applications.
Choose menu commands.
Initiate a global Find operation.
Select options in dialog boxes.
Open the onscreen keyboards.
Just as you drag the mouse to select text or move objects on your computer,
you can drag the stylus to select text. In addition, you can use the stylus to
drag the slider of any scroll bar.
Starting pda phone and calibrating screen
The first time you start the G18 pda phone, setup instructions appear
onscreen. These instructions include a calibration screen, or a digitizer.
Calibration aligns the internal circuitry of the pda phone with its touch-
sensitive screen so your pda phone can detect the task you want to perform
when you tap an element on the screen.
To calibrate your screen:
1. Tap the Applications icon, and then tap Prefs.
2. In the pick list in the upper right corner of the screen, tap Digitizer.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions, tapping the screen where indicated.
