How do the touchscreen EFIS work on this plane?? Every time I fly, I see that people have been using some touchscreen function on the EFIS. How do I do this? My fingers just smudge it up and have no effect. Do I need to buy the fancy touchscreen gloves they sell in the store?

I told an FO the other day that I will use the crash axe on anyone's fingers I see that touch the screens.

Have you seen horses running through a field on a sunny day? With freedom and happiness flowing about them? That's what it looks like.
I pictured it more like this... |

Must be former RAH pilots thinking it has the touchscreen that's always on. Our planes have both touchscreen and voice recognition. In order to enable the touchscreen tap the PA button twice within 2 seconds then hold it down and say "ok embraer, enable touchscreen". On the EWTs you can even say "ok embraer, [command] (i.e. "engage autopilot" or even "activate vectors"). This only works with both engines running or a wheel speed greater than 5 knots. I hope this clears up some confusion. It's pretty nifty stuff.
