Power button — Used to power the system on and off.

Windows Security button — If you use your Tablet-PC in tablet mode, press this button to access the Windows Task Manager dialog box or a login screen, the same way you use the <Ctrl><Alt><Del> key sequence in notebook mode.

Screen rotate button — While the Tablet-PC is in tablet mode, use the screen rotate button to change the display orientation from portrait to landscape mode. Each time you press and release the screen rotate button, the screen image rotates clockwise 90 degrees.

QuickSet tablet settings button — Press this button to view and configure options for the Tablet-PC and the pen through Dell Control Point System Manager. You can configure this button to perform a different action using Windows Vista™ Tablet-PC Settings.

Using the Scroll Control

  • To scroll through a list of items or a set of pages one at a time, shift the scroll control up or down and release. The control automatically returns to the center/neutral position when released.
  • To rapidly scroll through a list of items or a set of pages, shift the control up or down and hold it, releasing it when you wish to stop scrolling.
  • To select objects, press and release the scroll control when it is in the center/neutral position.
  • To launch context sensitive menus, press and hold the scroll control until a complete circle is drawn on the display then release. This is equivalent to clicking the right mouse button on a notebook computer.

Use the back button to move backwards in applications that support navigation, such as web browsers and Windows Explorer. It is also used to close the active window.

  • To move backward, press and release the back button.
  • To close the active window, press and hold the back button.
  • To customize the back button behavior, use the Tablet and Pen Settings in Windows Vista.
