Using the Bluetooth keyboard

This chapter provides information about using the Bluetooth keyboard.

Using the TrackPoint

The TrackPoint consists of a pointing stick and three click buttons. The pointing stick is used to control the
cursor. The three click buttons are the left button, the right button, and the middle button.
To use the pointing stick, do the following:
1. Place your hands at typing position, and press gently on the pointing stick in the direction that you want
the cursor to move. You can press the pointing stick away from you to move the cursor up, toward you
to move the cursor down, to one side or the other to move the cursor sideways. The speed at which the
cursor moves depends on the pressure you apply to the pointing stick.
Note: The cursor might periodically drift. Stop using the pointing stick for a few seconds and try
again. The cursor will work normally.
2. To select an item, stop the pointing stick when the cursor locates the item and press the left or right
button with your thumb. The left and right buttons function the same as the left and right buttons on a
conventional mouse.

Replacing the pointing stick cap

The cap on top of the pointing stick is removable. You can buy appropriate caps from Lenovo to replace
your current cap.
To remove the cap on the pointing stick, simply grasp the top portion of the cap and pull it up. To install
a new cap, align the square at the bottom of the cap with the pointing stick and push down until the cap
seats into position.

Changing the pointing stick sensitivity

When you are using the pointing stick, you might prefer to use a light touch, or you might want to apply more
pressure. You can change the way the pointing stick responds to your touch by doing the following:
1. Click the ThinkPad Compact Keyboard with TrackPoint icon on the system tray.
2. In the Mouse Properties window, click External Keyboard tab.
3. In the Pointer speed area, move the slider toward Slow or Fast according to your preference.
4. Click Apply. Then, test how the pointing stick responds to your new setting and make adjustments if
necessary.
