TOPIC
This article discusses the behavior of the contrast adjustment slider in the Newton OS found on the MessagePad 2100, or on a MessagePad 2000 with Newton OS Update 717260 installed.
DISCUSSION When adjusting the contrast on a Newton MessagePad 2100, or on a MessagePad 2000 computer with Newton OS Update 717260 installed, the display may respond with a faded appearance. To correctly adjust the contrast, use the following steps.
2. Drag the diamond to the setting most comfortable for your environment and release. 3. Tap the word "Contrast" positioned under the contrast adjustment slider. 4. Your display should adjust itself to the contrast point you selected. To save this setting as the contrast slider middle point, quickly double-tap the word "Contrast" below the slider. When the message appears asking if you want to center the slider, tap "Yes". The diamond on the slider returns to the middle. The middle point of the contrast slider is now at the desired contrast setting. Note: Do not set the middle point so that the contrast is too light or too dark. If you do so, you may not be able to read anything on the screen. To return to the factory setting, you must do a hard reset. (This will erase all of your data.) For detailed information about resetting, see the MessagePad 2000 User's Manual or MessagePad 2100 PDF document. For more information regarding the use of the contrast adjustment feature, please review your product documentation, or the Read Me included with the Newton OS Update patch. |
