Chapter 2 Using the Stylistic 2300 Pen Tablet This chapter covers the fundamental concepts, basic system operation and use, and system functions of the Stylistic 2300 pen tablet. You should familiarize yourself with this information before you attempt to operate the system. System States 2 Before you begin using the Stylistic 2300 pen tablet, review the different system states (or modes) that the pen tablet can use.
• Off state All system functions are turned off to conserve power. The system does not respond to the pen or other input. The system boots at the next system power-on. Note: The system consumes the same amount of power whether it is in Suspend-to-Disk mode or the Off state. Your system may be configured to enter some of these states automatically after a period of inactivity to conserve battery power.
Starting the Pen Tablet 2 Follow the procedure below to start the Stylistic 2300 pen tablet. Before you begin, confirm that the system is in the Off state. To do so, observe the Status display. If the Power icon is not visible in the Status display, the system is in the Off state and it is safe to perform this procedure. If the Power icon is visible (either blinking or on continuously), do not perform this procedure.
Shutting Down the System 2 Follow these steps to shut down and turn off your system: 1. If system operation has been suspended, resume system operation. See “Resuming System Operation” later in this chapter for details. 2. Save your work and close all running programs. 3. Choose Shut Down from the Windows (95, 98, or NT) Start menu and carry out the Shut Down command. The system is now in the Off state. Caution The Suspend/Resume button can be programmed to act as an On/Off switch.
The Power icon either flashes or is not displayed when system operation is suspended, depending on how your system is configured. At this point, programs that were running are stopped, active data is saved, and the system enters one of two different low-power states, or suspend modes, as explained in the following paragraphs. 2. Observe the Power icon in the Status display to determine which suspend mode your system is using.
• If the battery pack charge drops to the Low-Battery Warning level while the system is running, the system will beep periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation, shut down the system, or attach an external power source, such as the AC adapter, to the pen tablet. • If the battery charge drops to the Critically Low level while the system is running, the system is forced into Suspend-to-RAM mode.
Note that power to several system components must be restored before system operation resumes. Allow sufficient time for system operation to resume before attempting to use the system. If your system uses Suspend-to-Disk mode, it will take longer to resume operation as compared to using Suspend-to-RAM mode. Time is needed to read data from the hard disk drive. • Use the system as you normally would once system operation resumes.
• Display Select hotpad This hotpad allows you to choose the pen tablet display screen, an external video monitor, or both as the selected system display(s). The pen tablet display screen appears blank when an external monitor alone is selected. • Contrast hotpads Contrast hotpads allow you to adjust the display contrast. (Contrast hotpads may not be present on your system, depending upon the type of pen tablet you have.) • Brightness hotpads These hotpads allow you to adjust the display brightness.
Note: You may need to tap the pen tip against the screen initially to turn on the pen. The pen turns off automatically to conserve the pen battery if not used for a period of approximately 3 minutes. Here are some hints that may help you use the pen more effectively. • To activate the Tip switch, tap or hold the pen tip against the screen. • To activate the Barrel button switch, press and hold in the Barrel button switch, then tap the pen tip on the screen.
Charging the Battery Pack 2 The Stylistic 2300 battery pack can be charged while it is installed in the pen tablet. To do so: 1. Connect a DC power source, such as the AC adapter, to the DC input connector on the pen tablet. The DC Input icon appears in the Status display. If the battery pack charge level is below 90%, the battery pack begins charging and the Charging icon appears in the Status display.
• The Stylistic 2300 battery pack uses lithium ion battery cells which have no “memory effect.” You do not need to discharge the battery pack before you begin charging. Removing and Installing the Battery Pack 2 The battery pack can be removed from the pen tablet and swapped with a charged battery pack. The battery pack can then be charged in an external charger if one is available. To remove the battery pack from the pen tablet: 1.
Battery Pack Locked Position Unlocked Position Battery Latch Figure 2-3 Removing and Installing the Battery Pack Conserving Battery Power 2 You can extend the charge life of your battery pack by conserving battery power. A fully charged battery pack can run the system under normal use in most applications for approximately 4 hours. Your results may vary depending on your application and how the system is configured.
• Shut down the system if you won’t be using the system for an extended period of time. • Use power management timeouts (accessible through the BIOS setup) to help you conserve power automatically. Care of Bridge Battery When installed in the pen tablet, the battery pack provides power to some system components—even when the system is in the Off state. When the battery pack is removed, power is supplied to these components by a “bridge” battery that is built into the pen tablet.
PC Card Slots 2 The Stylistic 2300 pen tablet has two PC Card slots that allow you to install up to two Type II PC Cards using both slots 1 and 2, or a single Type III PC Card using slot 1 only. There are two ways to install a PC card, depending upon the card configuration. • If you need access to the top of the card after it is installed (as with some LAN cards), install the card through the PC card door shutters.
Chapter 3 Care and Maintenance This chapter gives you pointers on how to care for and maintain your Stylistic 2300 pen tablet. Protecting the Display Screen 3 The Stylistic 2300 pen tablet is designed to provide you with years of service. Using a screen protector will help ensure that the screen remains as clear as possible. When installed, the screen protector becomes a durable, replaceable, antiglare writing surface that protects the display screen from abrasion.
2. Clean the display screen surface by wiping the screen surface gently using a soft cotton cloth dampened with denatured alcohol. Ensure that all film has been removed from the screen before applying a new screen protector. Caution The Stylistic 2300 pen tablet is not waterproof. Do not pour liquids on the system or wash it with a heavily soaked cloth. 3. Remove the protective coating from the adhesive side of the screen protector first. 4. Apply the screen protector to the display screen surface.
Protecting the Stylistic 2300 Pen Tablet in Harsh Environments 3 The Stylistic 2300 pen tablet is designed for use in environments where there is no direct exposure to rain, mist, sprays, dirt, or other abrasive particles. The optional Stylistic 2300 harsh environment case and the Stylistic 2300 screen protector can provide some protection in these environments.
Replacing the Pen Tip 3 The pen tip is made of a soft plastic material. With use, the pen tip may become worn or may pick up abrasive particles that can scratch the display screen. A damaged or warped tip may not move freely, causing unpredictable results when using the pen. If your pen exhibits any of these problems, replace the pen tip. To do so: 1. Remove the pen tip by pulling it straight out of the pen. 2. Insert a new pen tip into the pen until it fits snugly. You can now use the pen.
Replacing the Pen Battery 3 Caution The Stylistic 2300 pen is a sophisticated, high-quality electronic instrument that can be damaged with improper use. Treat the pen as you would any precision device. The following list contains guidelines for proper pen handling: • Unscrew the pen only when you are changing the battery. • Do not overtighten the pen when screwing it back together. The pen barrel will break if excessive force is used.
2. Remove the battery from the pen barrel. 3. Observing the polarity mark, insert a new battery into the pen barrel. (Insert the end of the battery with the negative terminal first.) Note: You do not need to remove the spring from the pen barrel when you replace the battery; however, if the spring does come out of the pen barrel when you remove the battery, insert the spring into the pen barrel, as shown in Figure 3-2, before you insert the new battery.
To calibrate the pen: 1. In the Control Panel, double-tap the Pen Configuration icon. Select the Calibration property sheet, then click on Pen Calibration. 2. Position the Stylistic 2300 pen tablet as you normally would during use. Be sure to hold the pen at the angle that you regularly use. 3. Perform the calibration steps according to the instructions on the screen. The calibration utility displays a cross-hair symbol in each corner of the screen, one corner at a time.
Solving Problems 3 Solutions to some common problems are described in the following sections. If you are experiencing a problem with your Stylistic 2300 pen tablet that you cannot solve by taking the actions described, contact your local help desk or your reseller for further assistance.
Infrared Data Transfer Is Not Working 3 If you are experiencing problems transferring data over the system’s infrared interface, note the following: • Can the IrDA port on the pen tablet “see” the IrDA port on the other device? A direct line-of-sight path must exist between the IrDA port on the pen tablet and the IrDA port on the other device. • The distance between the two devices must not be more than approximately 3 feet or 1 meter.
Audio Volume Too Low 3 If the audio volume on your pen tablet speaker or external headphones is too low, check the following: • Ensure that the speaker (or headphone output if using headphones) is enabled. To do so, tap the Speaker Mute hotpad. The system beeps when the speaker or headphone output is turned on using the Speaker Mute hotpad. • Ensure that the volume level set with the Volume hotpads is set to an audible level.
