Digitizer preferences
The first time you start your Acer s10, setup instructions appear onscreen. These
instructions include a calibration screen, or Digitizer. Calibration aligns the internal
circuitry of your Acer s10 with its touch-sensitive screen so your handheld can detect
the task you want to perform when you tap an element on the screen.
You can recalibrate your screen after a hard reset, or if your digitizer drifts.
To calibrate your screen:
• In the Digitizer screen, follow the onscreen instructions, tapping the screen
where indicated.
