1.6.4 Touch Screen and Stylus
The capacitive touch screen is used to control almost all the operations of the
diagnostic tool. Simply touch the screen with your finger, or use the capacitive
stylus to make a selection. The capacitive touch screen also provides you with
multi-touch gesture capabilities found on common surface touch devices. Most
operations are menu driven, which allows you to quickly locate the test, procedure,
or data that you need through a series of choices and questions. Detailed
descriptions of the menu structures are found in the sections for the various
functions.
