Chapter 125 Touchpad The build-in touchpad is a PS/2 compatible pointing device that senses movement on its surface. The cursor responds to your finger movements on the touchpad. In addition, the two click buttons provide the same functionality as a computer mouse, while the scroll key enables easy up and down scrolling in documents and web pages. The touchpad is located in the middle of the palm rest area, providing maximum comfort and efficiency. Touchpad Basics Use the touchpad as follows: TMove your finger across the touchpad to move the cursor. TPress the left (1) and right (3) buttons located on the edge of the touchpad to do selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad is the same as clicking the left button TUse the 4-way scroll (2) button to scroll up or down and move left or right a page. This button mimics your cursor pressing on the right scroll bar of windows applications.

NOTE: Keep your fingers, as well as the surface of the touchpad dry and clean. The touchpad is sensitive to
your finger movements: the lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping hard will not increase the
touchpad’s responsiveness.
