Trimble Yuma - Using the Touchscreen

2-2 Operating Your Tablet Computer
Using the Touchscreen
The touchscreen is a touch-sensitive device that allows you to easily
communicate with the tablet computer by controlling the location of the
pointer on the screen.
CAUTION:
 Do not use the screwdriver end of the stylus on the touchscreen or it will scratch
your screen. Use only the spring-tip end of the stylus.
 Install the screen protector film to keep the touchscreen clean and protected.
Screen protectors extend the life of the display by providing a protective and
replaceable barrier between abrasive grit and the surface of the display.
Here are some common terms that you should know when using the
touchscreen:
