Configuring virtual buttons
The virtual buttons at the top of the Dual Mode Pad are
preconfigured for the Email, ConfigFree, and Print functions.
You can assign different functions to these buttons if you wish.
The virtual buttons on the bottom of the Dual Mode Pad
(buttons 4, 5, and 6 in the Properties for Synaptics LuxPad

these buttons, you must first configure that button so that it is
associated with a function.
