SOME HINTS ABOUT WHAT TO DO FIRST

Congratulations on selecting a Motion Tablet PC! By now you have read the Installation Poster, probably started your Tablet PC, and started Windows XP. We recommend that you now take the following steps:

NOTE: If you are reading this User Guide from our website, you may not have set up nor used a Tablet PC before. When you begin using your unit, you may be required to attach a standard USB keyboard to initialize Windows XP operating system software. This procedure is described in Chapter 4 of this User Guide.

• Calibrate the Pen.
  • Practice using the Pen.
• Play Inkball.
• Go through the tutorials.
• Check out the Using Your Motion Tablet PC page.
• See what's on the Windows Help and Support Center page.
  • Take the Microsoft Windows XP tour.

Each of these is briefly described in the following sections.

Calibrate the Pen

Your Digitizer Pen will function better and you'll be more successful using it if you calibrate it immediately and recalibrate it occasionally. For information about calibrating the Pen, see the section "Calibrating the Pen" in Chapter 4 of this User Guide.

Practice Using the Pen

The Motion Digitizer Pen is one of the unique components of the Tablet PC, but it may take a little practice to use. Here are some hints:

• When you write with the Pen, you can rest your hand or arm anywhere on the Tablet PC display without disturbing any open programs or damaging the display surface.
• Watch the Pen cursor instead of the Pen tip when you write. The cursor is a guide for your Pen movements.
• Practice writing and learn how hard and where to tap on the Tablet PC display. You need these skills for writing recognition and for activating programs, menus, or other Tablet PC functions.
• The Pen can be held like any other writing tool. Learn how to hold it and when and how to press the Pen function button, which activates right-click functions.

For other hints about using the Pen, see the section "Using the Pen" in Chapter 4 of this User Guide.

Play Inkball

Practice your Digitizer Pen skills on this game, which is activated from Start, All Programs, Games, Inkball.

Take the Tutorials

When you start your Tablet PC, several Tutorials are offered to help you learn about its various functions, such as the Windows Journal, Tablet PC Input Panel, and Speech recognition.

The Tutorials are short, quick, and informative and we highly recommend them as a starting place to begin a successful Tablet PC experience.

NOTE: Microsoft Windows XP for Tablet PC offers several tutorials. One set appears each time you start the Tablet PC (unless you deactivate this option). Others can be found by selecting Start, Using Your Motion Tablet PC, or from Start, Get Going with Tablet PC.

Motion Resources Page and Online User Guide

The link to the Motion Tablet PC User Guide is provided on the Using Your Motion Tablet PC page, shown here. In addition to this link, other instructions for using the Pen, Dashboard, and other applications are included there.

Microsoft Help and Resources Center Page

You can find additional information about your Tablet PC and the Microsoft Windows XP operating system in the Microsoft Help and Support Center. The Help and Support Center is installed on your Tablet PC. To access Help, select Start, then Help and Support.

Did You Know Section

Whenever you open the Help and Support Center while your Tablet PC is connected to the Internet, the “Did You Know” section checks for updates from Microsoft and Motion Computing, such as system-use hints, or notices from Motion Computing about your Tablet PC.

Take a Tour of Windows XP

If this is your first experience with the Windows XP operating system, this tour is a good introduction. You can find this by selecting Start, then Windows Help and Support Center, and finally What's New in Windows XP.

Chapter 2

Motion Tablet PC Hardware

This chapter describes the Motion Tablet PC, including components, LEDs, hardware, and accessories.

TABLET PC DISPLAY AND WRITING SURFACES

All Motion Computing Tablet PC displays and writing surfaces combine three key components:

• A highly-readable, liquid-crystal display
- An acrylic protective layer that provides a hard writing surface, minimizes glare, and improves viewability
- Under the display, a digitizer panel that allows on-screen keyboard data entry, plus hand-written entry with a specially-designed Digitizer Pen

Modern desktop computer setup with monitor, keyboard, mouse, and tower (no visible text or labels)

The Motion Tablet PC display, unlike touchscreens and personal digital assistants (PDAs), responds to the Motion Digitizer Pen, but not to a PDA stylus or to finger taps.

You can steady your hand on the display surface when you write. The pressure of your hand won't affect any open programs or data input.

NOTE: For more information about the care and maintenance of the Tablet PC display and writing surface, see Chapter 4 of this User Guide.

CAUTION: Use the appropriate AC Adapter with your Motion Tablet PC. This adapter should not be used to power any other electronic devices. If you do so, you may damage the accessory or other device.

MOTION BATTERIES

A standard configuration Motion Tablet PC ships with a 6-cell Lithium-ion battery in the battery bay. Fully charged, a new 6-cell battery can power the Tablet PC for 3-4 hours, depending on operating conditions.

Extra batteries are available from Motion Computing. Use only Motion Lithium-ion batteries in your Motion Tablet PC.

WARNING: To avoid personal injury, handle the battery with care. Do not open, puncture, short, or expose it to fire or water. Keep the battery in an ambient temperature of less than 140^ F (60^) ; for example, don't leave it in a closed car in hot weather for extended periods of time.

NOTE: For more information about the battery LEDs, see the section "Battery Status LEDs" in this chapter; and for more information about battery care, see Chapter 4 of this User Guide.

MODEM AND LAN CONNECTORS

The Motion Tablet PC modem and LAN (network connection) communication ports are found on the connector edge, as shown below.

Modem and LAN Connectors: (1) RJ-45 LEDs; (2) RJ-11 Modem; (3) RJ-45 LAN

NOTE: The Motion FlexDock has no built-in modem port. When using a FlexDock, you must connect to the modem port on the Tablet PCs through the FlexDock opening designed for this purpose.

• Modem (RJ-11 port) — Built-in, V.90 modem that operates at a maximum of 56.6K throughput and has fax capabilities; port supports a standard phone cord connector; connect the modem only to an analog telephone jack, not to a digital telephone (PBX) network jack

CAUTION: Do not plug a standard RJ-11 phone cord into the RJ-45 port or you may damage the RJ-45 LAN port.

TABLET PC CHASSIS LEDs

The Tablet PC front panel (shown in the diagram) and the battery case on the bottom of the unit contain status LEDs, described here.

Tablet PC Front Panel LEDs

The Motion Tablet PC has four front-panel status LEDs:

Table 2-3Front Panel Status LEDs
LED Description Status
Power/Stand By Ste	steady green Tablet PC is on.
	Flashing green Tablet PC is in Stand By.
Battery Status See	Table 2-4.
Hard Disk Drive (HDD)	Flashing/On The Tablet PC HDD is being read or written to.
Wireless Activity Ste	steady or flashing green	Wireless is on.
	Off Wireless is off.

Battery Status LEDs

The Motion Tablet PCs are equipped with a “smart” battery that can communicate messages about power status. Some messages are informational only, while others require attention, as described in Table 2-4.

CAUTION: To avoid personal injury, if the battery is overheated, wait until the battery cools to room temperature before recharging or replacing it.

NOTE: If the unit operating is on battery power, you can move the Pen over the Power/Battery icon, shown here, (in the System Tray at the lower-right corner of the Tablet PC display) to see the number of hours of charge and the percentage of battery charge remaining.

Table 2-4Front Panel Battery Status LED
LED Battery	Status Action
Steady green Battery	100% charged(AC plugged in)	None
Steady amber Battery	charging(AC plugged in)	None
Steady red Battery overheated or defective Wait for the battery to cool.Replace the battery.
Flashing green and amber	Battery discharging abnormally	Replace the battery.
Slow-flashing amber	10% battery charge remaining(AC unplugged).	Immediately charge thebattery to avoid loss of data.
NOTE:When the remaining battery charge is 10%, the Tablet PCs issue a LowBattery alarm message in addition to the LED warning. For information aboutmodifying this alarm (you can set it to display a message or to produce an audiblewarning), see Chapter 4 of this User Guide.
Fast-flashing amber(for only a fewseconds)	3% battery charge remaining(AC unplugged)	The Tablet PCs issue aCritical Battery alarm andautomatically goes intoHibernate mode.

Hints for Writing with the Pen

The first time you pick up the Pen, you'll notice it is lightweight (it has no internal battery), has a plastic tip, and contains an elongated button that called the "function button."

• You can hold the Pen like any other writing tool, except you may want to place your fingers on either side of the Pen function button so that you don't inadvertently press it as you write. Pressing the function button while tapping the Pen on the display is like right-clicking with a mouse and will launch pop-up menus.
• Practice pressing the Pen function button with both your index finger and thumb to see which you prefer.
• Relax your grip. Only a light touch is needed to write with the Pen.
• With a little practice, you will learn how to tap on the Tablet PC display to activate buttons and menus.
• The more precise your handwritten input, the more accurate the Tablet PC will be in converting it to text. You can use printed or cursive handwriting, but a mixture of upper and lowercase letters works best.
• When you hold the Pen over the Tablet PC display, a pointer (small dot) appears under the Pen tip on the display and moves with the Pen on the

display.

- To select something on the display, line up this pointer before you touch (tap) the Pen to the display surface. The digitizer under the Tablet PC display reads the position of the pointer, not where you touch the Pen to the display.

CAUTION: Do not write on the Tablet PC display with ink pens or other pointed objects that could damage it.

A comparison of the Pen and mouse operations is made below:

Table 4-1 Mouse versus Pen Actions
With a Mouse	With the Digitizer Pen
Point and click Point and tap the Pen on the display.
Double-click Double-tap the Pen on the display.
Click-and-drag Tap-and-drag the Pen on the display.
Right-click Press the Pen button while tapping, or press and hold the Pen on the display.

Ending Accidental Right-Clicks

If your writing is frequently interrupted with right-clicks of the Pen when you accidentally press the Pen button, you may want to deactivate this function altogether. (You will still be able to activate right-click menus by pressing and holding the Pen against the display surface.

1. Double-tap the Tablet and Pen Settings icon in the System Tray, located in the lower right-hand corner of the display window. This opens Tablet and Pen Settings. (You can also access this through the Windows Control panel.)

2. Select the Pen Options tab.

3. Uncheck the option Use pen button to right-click.

4. Tap Apply.

Adjusting Pen Properties for Ease of Use

For convenience and ease of use, you may want to adjust the settings on the Pen, such as which hand you write with or the menu location.

To access Pen properties:

1. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 above.
2. Select the Settings tab.
3. Change the Handedness or Menu location, as desired.
4. Tap Apply.

You can use Pen gestures to quickly perform the following actions:

NOTE: Gestures work primarily in the Tablet PC Input Panel and the Write Anywhere feature. For more information about gestures, gesture symbols, and for handwriting tips, open the Tablet PC Input Panel, Tools menu, then select Help, Help Topics. Under Tips and Tricks, select Tips for entering text. You will find a Gesture reference.

• Open the Tablet PC Input Panel — Holding the tip of the Pen above the screen, quickly move the pointer back and forth several times.
• Backspace (erase the previous character) — Quickly draw a right-to-left line on the display surface
• Erase — Draw a short, wide "Z" from left to right across what you want to erase. (It may take some practice to master this gesture.) The erase gesture works in the Windows Journal, Tablet PC Input Panel, and the Write Anywhere (an option of the Windows Journal).

HINTS FOR OPTIMIZING YOUR DISPLAY WINDOW

To free work space and enlarge your writing area, you can optimize your Tablet PC display window in these ways:

• Move the Tablet PC Input Panel anywhere — From Tools, uncheck Dock. This lets you drag the input panel anywhere on the display.
• Hide the Input Panel — Select the (up arrow) on the Input Panel
• Enlarge the Preview window — From Tools, tap Options, and then tap Two lines.
• Relocate the taskbar anywhere on the display — From Windows Control Panel, tap Taskbar and Start Menu (Classic View) or double-click Appearance and themes (Category View) and then tap Taskbar and Start Menu. Uncheck the box beside Lock the taskbar. Tap OK and close Control Panel. Now place your Pen inside the Taskbar and drag it to the sides or top of the display.
• Change the amount of delay to transfer writing, or the thickness of the ink — From Tools, select Options.

NOTE: For more information about Tablet PC Input Panel functions, see the Help menu under Tools on the Tablet PC Input Panel window.

MAKING BEST USE OF THE TABLET PC INPUT PANEL

The Tablet PC Input Panel keyboard and writing pad let you:

• Enter information in other input fields, such as passwords
• Hand write or type entries in Journal documents
  • Write or type E-mail messages

1. Open the Tablet PC Input Panel by tapping the icon, shown here.
2. With another application active, such as a password entry field, a Journal document, or Outlook, write or type on the Input Panel window.
3. By default, after a short delay, your handwriting will be automatically sent to the active program.

HINTS FOR WORKING WITH THE INPUT PANEL

Here are some hints about the Tablet PC Input Panel:

• Disappearing text — If you don’t have an active application or the Input Panel Preview window open, your writing or typing will disappear from the display in a few seconds. Open an application (such as Microsoft Word) or the Preview window to accept your text.
• Tablet PCs without Microsoft Office Pen Extensions installed — If you have Microsoft Office installed but not Pen Extensions, these programs (Microsoft Word, Outlook, and Excel) will not accept ink. Pen Extensions are included with associated Motion software orders or are available free on the Microsoft website.
  • However, other programs will accept text, including Journal, Wordpad, and Notepad.
• Sending drawings — While probably not the best application for drawings, you can send them from the Input Panel to some applications (such as Wordpad or Microsoft Word). However, they don’t transfer to the Text Preview window. If you draw from the Input Panel with the Text Preview window open, Windows XP tries to interpret the drawing as text, with unpredictable results.
• Entering passwords — For security and accuracy, we recommend you use the keyboard on the Input Panel instead of writing this confidential information where it is clearly visible and where handwriting recognition will try to make it into words.

Input Panel Text Preview Window

The Tablet PC Input Panel has a Text Preview window that lets you see a text transcription of what you have written before you send it to an active application:

"Sending as Ink" (Handwriting and Drawings) from the Input Panel

To transfer ink input to another application:

1. Open the Tablet PC Input Panel.

2. Close the Text Preview window by deselecting it in Tools.

3. Open another application, such as Notepad, Wordpad, or Microsoft Word to write your input to. If you don't open this second application, your input will disappear from the Tablet PC Input Panel display in a few seconds.

4. Tap the down arrow beside Send.

5. Enable Send as Ink. (If the application you have open doesn't accept ink input, this option will be grayed out.)

6. Create the text or simple drawing you want to send as ink.

NOTE: To increase the size of the text and drawings, highlight these on screen, then change the font size. Wordpad and Notepad don't allow you to reset the default font size, but once you can increase the font size.

ELIMINATING PAPER WITH WINDOWS JOURNAL

Windows Journal offers these note-taking capabilities:

• Search — Look for a handwritten or typewritten word in all your Journal Notes
- Organization — Use color, and/or titles to arrange information
- Versatility — Draw diagrams and charts, copy and paste information between documents, convert handwriting to text

Color-coded thermal or heat map-style illustration of a human head with orange, yellow, and cyan coloring (no text or symbols)

CREATING FORMS AND EDITING THEM IN WINDOWS JOURNAL

You can create forms or edit documents from many formats (such as Word, Excel, Adobe® Acrobat) by creating a Journal Template. You can then write on your new “form,” exchange edits with others, or write on them during a presentation.

1. Create or open the desired document on your Tablet PC.
2. Tap Print.
3. Select the Journal Note Writer as the printer.
4. Tap Print.
5. On the Save As screen, type in a name for the document.

7. Tap Save. By default, this saves your document as a Windows Journal template (.JNT file) to My Documents/My Notes.

NOTE: Windows Journal may take a few minutes to save, but even multi-page files will convert to a Journal Note Writer file.

1. Open the Windows Journal, then open your document.
2. Write with your Pen on this document as you would any other Journal document (fill in your "form" or make your annotations).
3. Save your document with a new file name to preserve your edits.

You can reuse and save this document as many times as you want.

HAVE STICKY NOTES HANDY FOR JOTTING DOWN INFORMATION

Sticky Notes are a convenient place to store things like names, phone numbers, simple maps, or other information that you would normally put on a paper note. And since they're electronic, you can export them to other programs. Sticky Notes are kept in a numbered stack that you can browse through and discard when you're through with them.

They can also be used to record voice notes (although you can't drag the voice notes to another program or the desktop).

PEN
The Tablet PC digitizer screen doesn't respond to the plastic stylus I use on my PDA.	You're using the wrong input device.	Only the Motion Digitizer Pen lets you write on the Tablet display. The Tablet PC doesn't respond to other tablet pens or to a plastic stylus.
I have the Tablet PC Input Panel open, but a few seconds after I write, my writing disappears.	You don't have an application or word processing program open to which the Input Panel can send the ink message.	Either open the Text Preview window from the Tools menu on the Input Panel, or open a word processing program, such as Microsoft Word, Notepad, or Wordpad.
The Motion Digitizer Pen tip doesn't line up with the arrow-cursor when I tap on the screen.	The pen and display need recalibrating.	Double-tap the Tablet and Pen Settings icon and select the Pen Settings tab. Or select Calibrate on the Motion Dashboard.
I sometimes unintentionally click the Pen function button while I'm writing with the Pen.	You're pressing the Pen button with your thumb or finger when you write or gripping the Pen too tightly and accidentally pressing the Pen button. This enables the right-click function of the Pen.	Try these hints:·Readjust how you hold the Pen. Place your fingers on either side of the Pen function button when you write.·Practice using the Pen function button with both your index finger and thumb to see which you prefer.·Relax your grip. Only a light touch is needed to write with the Pen.·Deactivate the Pen right-click function through Tablet and Pen Settings. Instead, press and hold the Pen to the display surface to right-click.
PROBLEM	CAUSE SOLUTION
PEN (CONTINUED)
The Pen button doesn't work. I can't get it to right-click.	The right-click option for the Pen button may be deactivated.	Re-activate the right-click option: Double-click the Tablet and Pen Settings icon, select Pen Options, and reselect Use pen button to right-click. Select Apply>OK.
	You may not be correctly timing clicking the Pen button and tapping the Pen on the display.	To right-click, hold the Pen button down and then tap on the display.
The buttons on the Tablet PC don't do what I expect them to do.	Button functions have been changed.	Double-tap the Tablet and Pen Settings icon, then Tablet Buttons. You can reset the buttons to the defaults. Note: Button functions are associated with the orientation in which they're programmed.
INTERFACE/PORTS
The system doesn't recognize the PC card I've inserted.	The card is incorrectly inserted. Eject the card and re-insert it with the label side up.
	The device is not supported.	Check Windows XP compatibility.
The system doesn't recognize a USB or IEEE 1394 device.	Windows XP may take a short time to recognize the device.	Wait until Windows XP recognizes the device.
	The accessory isn't connected to the Tablet PC correctly.	Check the connection cable and be sure it is inserted into the correct port on the Tablet PC and the accessory device.
	The correct driver isn't built into Windows XP.	Use the device's installation CD or check the manufacturer's website for the correct driver.
The Tablet PC is sitting in the Motion FlexDock, but the system doesn't recognize any accessory devices, such as the external monitor or CDROM.	The Tablet PC isn't fully seated in the Motion FlexDock.	Reseat the Tablet PC in the Motion FlexDock.
AUDIO
The built-in microphone doesn't seem to hear my voice correctly.	The built-in microphone is not intended for dictation.	For speech recognition, attach a headset microphone. A DSP headset provides good results.
No sound is coming from the built-in speakers.	Connecting a headset or external speakers mutes the built-in speakers.	Disconnect the headset or external speakers if not in use.
No sound is coming from any speakers.	Audio volume is too low or has been muted.	Open the Motion Dashboard and adjust the speaker volume by sliding the volume slider or uncheck the Mute button.
OPERATING SYSTEM
I've forgotten my BIOS password and can't access my system.	The Tablet PC will let you enter a certain number of incorrect passwords (five) before it locks the system.	Turn the Tablet PC off and back on and try re-entering your password (you can do this as many times as needed). If you have forgotten your password, contact your Motion Computing reseller or Motion Computing Technical Support for information about unlocking your system.
The program I'm working in has stopped responding, but the cursor moves and other programs work.	The program has crashed. Press the	the Security button (small button with a key icon) on the Tablet PC front panel to open the Task Manager and end the non-responsive program.
The system keeps showing the wrong date and time even after I reset it.	Wrong time zone is selected. Check that the time zone is correct and reset it as needed.
	The system memory battery on the mainboard may need to be replaced.	Contact your Motion Computing Reseller or Motion Computing Support at www.motioncomputing.com/support
The system seems to be operating more slowly than usual.	The hard disk drive is full or nearly full.	Run the Disk Cleanup utility to clear out unnecessary and temporary files. Remove unneeded programs and files.
	The disk needs defragmenting. Run Disk Defragmenter to consolidate files and folders on the hard drive. Consult the "Performance and Maintenance" section of the Help and Support Center.
COMMUNICATIONS
The wireless communication keeps connecting even when I don't want it to.	The default setting is On. Uncheck	the Wireless Communications checkbox in the Motion Dashboard.
Data doesn't transfer through the wired Ethernet cable.	The Ethernet cable is not connected correctly.	Reconnect and check the activity LEDs next to the LAN (RJ-45) port. They should flash green and amber.

FAQs

How long will the battery stay charged?

This can vary according how you're using the Tablet PC, but a new, fully charged standard Motion 6-cell battery can last 3-4 hours.

Can I make the battery charge last longer?

• Change to the Max Battery power scheme (right-click on the Power/Battery icon in the System Tray--located in the lower-right corner of the display window--and tap Adjust Power Properties; under Power schemes, tap Max Battery). The Tablet PC comes with Motion Computing Optimized as the default power scheme.
• Dim the display brightness by opening the Motion Dashboard and moving the Display Brightness slider. (You can also double-tap on the Tablet and Pen Settings icon in the System Tray and choose the Display tab to get this brightness slider.)
• Disconnect LAN/modem connections and disable wireless communications when not in use (uncheck the Wireless Communications checkbox in the Motion Dashboard).
• Turn off optional and unnecessary background programs and turn off or unplug accessory equipment from the USB and IEEE 1394 ports.

What does the Tablet PC need for use in another country?

Just an outlet adapter, which you can find in airports and travel stores. The AC adapter will adjust automatically to different voltage when plugged into the correct location-appropriate power adapter.

What's the best way to clean the display screen?

To clean the display screen, spray a window-type cleaner onto a soft cloth, like the one supplied with your Tablet PC, then wipe the display. Do not spray cleaners, spray/pour any liquid, nor wipe any abrasive cleaner on the screen nor any surface of the Tablet PC. Do not use tissues or paper towels to clean the screen. They contain wood fibers and may scratch the surface.

Will scratches affect the display/digitizer's performance?

Testing has not found appreciable loss of performance on a scratched display.

How sensitive is the screen to sunlight and the elements?

As with any computer or electronic device, the Tablet PC should be protected from liquids, dirt and sand, other contaminants, sunlight, and extreme heat.

Will the Tablet PC work with any monitor or USB accessory keyboard, mouse, disk drive, etc?

As long as the device's driver is available either in the Windows XP operating system or from the manufacturer and it carries the Windows XP logo or certification, it should work with your Tablet PC. For more information, see www.microsoft.com/help.

Why doesn't the Tablet PC or FlexDock have parallel, serial, or PS2 (mouse) ports?

Microsoft Tablet PC certification requires the system to be completely Grab-and-Go—that is, to be able to dock with and undock from all accessories without putting the system into suspend or shutting it down. Connection through legacy ports (serial, parallel, PS2) often requires suspending or restarting the system, which prevents you from moving between desktop mode and mobile mode seamlessly in one docking/undocking step. You can purchase a USB-to-serial or USB-to-parallel adapter from Motion Computing or a Motion Computing reseller.

How do I adjust the Tablet for left-handed use?

Double-tap on the Tablet and Pen Settings icon in the System Tray, located in the lower-right corner of the display window, which opens the Settings window. You can change handedness as well as the location of the menus. Then, recalibrate the Pen.
