Operating the TrackPoint III
Chapter 2. Getting Familiar with Your Computer
2-11
If you are new to the TrackPoint III, these instructions will help you
get started.
Note:
Remember that the stick does not
move.
1
Place your hands in the typing position and press gently with
either index finger in the direction in which you want the cursor
to move.
Note:
The mouse pointer may drift. This is
not a defect. Do not use the
TrackPoint III until the pointer stops
moving.
Pressing the stick away from you moves the cursor up the
screen; pressing it toward you moves the cursor down the
screen.
Note:
Either thumb can be used.
2
Use the click buttons to select and drag as required by your
software, in the same way as for any other pointing device.
