Introduction and Overview
The Wacom® Cintiq™ 21UX Interactive Pen Display combines an LCD display with a Wacom tablet. This gives you a di­rect point-and-draw-on-screen interface that can be used with a PC, Macintosh® computer, or SGI™ or Sun® workstation. Cintiq’s basic components include a Wacom tablet internally mounted behind an 21.3” diagonal TFT color LCD display, and Wacom’s Grip Pen.
Your Cintiq Interactive Pen Display offers a number of significant advantages over a standard display:
Integrated input and display
Pressure-sensitive drawing directly on the display screen
Reduced power consumption and heat generation
Requires less work space
Flicker free and easier on the eyes.
Cintiq comes with a modular display stand, which allows you to easily rotate the Cintiq main unit to any orientation, and to adjust the incline of the working surface to any tilt angle between 20 and 77 degrees. You can also lock Cintiq in either a landscape or portrait orientation.
The workspace, and how you interact with it, was an important consideration in the design and development of Cintiq. Regardless of how you prefer to work with the Interactive Pen Display, you will find that Cintiq is ideally suited to a variety of diverse professional fields and applications. Cintiq is especially useful in the fields of animation, graphics design, 3D modeling, and video and film post-production. Some additional areas of use include architectural design, AV presenta­tions, industrial design, medical imaging, textile design, and any others where direct manipulation of the screen image is useful.
This manual describes how to install the Cintiq hardware and software. It also describes how to use Cintiq, the Grip Pen, and the Cintiq stand.
The Cintiq main unit and the Cintiq stand are packed separately. Refer to Unpacking Cintiq on page 17 before removing Cintiq or the stand from the box.
Note that the computer treats the two parts of Cintiq (the LCD display and the Wacom tablet) as separate pieces of hardware.
First, you will install the LCD display portion of Cintiq.
In the second stage you will install Cintiq’s tablet functionality.
Both stages require hardware and software installations.
You can find information on using the Wacom Tablet Control Panel for customizing your tablet and pen settings in the online Help, located under the page 13.
The following are not included with this product:
Information about your specific computer hardware
Information about your operating system
Information about application software.
Please refer also to your computer hardware, operating system, or software application manuals. To use the pressure­sensitivity of the Grip Pen with your favorite drawing application, refer to instructions in that application’s manuals.
Therefore, the installation process is completed in two stages:

Unpacking and Mounting Cintiq onto the Stand
1.Unpack the stand.
Incline Adjustment Levers
CAUTION
Before operate the Incline Adjustment Levers, please refer to Using the Stand section on page 18. Do not operate the incline adjustment levers when Cintiq is not mounted on the stand or the stand's rear feet are lifted; the stand is spring­loaded and may cause injury or damage if released without the weight. Be careful to avoid catching your finger in the gap of the movable portion of the closing stand.
2. Unpack the Cintiq main unit. Place the display unit face down on a flat, soft surface (such as on a cloth spread across a desktop) and remove any packing materials.
3. Place the stand where the stand is stable. Cintiq will weigh 10 kg when the main unit is mounted.
4. Lift the main unit so the switches come on top. Then mount the main unit onto the stand as shown below.
5. Lock the main unit to the stand using the left and right lock brackets with screws; they mirror one another and the arrows on the brackets point toward the center of the main unit.
CAUTION
Be sure to fix the main unit to the stand. Otherwise the stand can fall from the main unit when moving Cintiq to a different location if Cintiq is in landscape orientation; it may cause physical injury or damage to the stand. If Cintiq is not fixed to the stand, when moving to a different location Cintiq may unexpectedly rotate and fall from your hands. If you have to move Cintiq to a different location when Cintiq is unfixed to the stand, be sure to remove the main unit from the stand and then move both items separately.

Working with the Grip Pen
Hold the pen as you would a pencil. Make sure the side switch is in a convenient location where you can press it with your thumb or forefinger, but won’t accidentally press it while drawing.
Eraser
Second Side Switch
Side Switch
Tip Switch
Pen Tip
When the pen tip is within proximity (5 mm or 0.2 in) of the active area, the tablet reports:
- The x, y coordinates of the pen tip.
- The pressure applied to the pen tip.
- Whether a side switch is on or off.
When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen simulates a mouse button click.
Eraser
To use the eraser, hold the pen upside down. When the eraser is within proximity of the active area, the tablet reports the x, y coordinates and the pressure applied to the eraser.
The eraser can be used as an eraser or assigned to another function, depending on the application. The tablet distinguishes the tip switch from the eraser switch.
Side Switch and Second Side Switch
These switches are programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and double-click functions as the tip switch. The switches are turned on when pressed, and are otherwise turned off. Please refer to the online Help for more informa­tion on side switch settings.

Working with the Cintiq StandI
Adjusting Tilt
The stand allows Cintiq’s tilt to be adjusted to any angle between 77 and 20 degrees from vertical. To adjust the incline, from the front of Cintiq grasp the Interactive Pen Display on the left and right side at approximately the same height as the Cintiq stand adjustment levers. Use your fingertips to gently pull the incline adjustment levers toward the display unit; this will release the stand’s clutch mechanism. Tilt the display to adjust the incline setting.
To lower Cintiq:
Pull the left incline adjustment lever toward Cintiq and gently lower Cintiq to the desired incline angle. Release the lever to lock the stand in place.
To raise Cintiq:
Pull the right incline adjustment lever toward Cintiq and gently raise Cintiq to the desired incline angle. Release the lever to lock the stand in place.
The stand adjustment levers may exhibit some natural play before the clutch mechanism engages. For the most

As you work with Cintiq, you can rest your hand lightly on the display screen, just as if it were a drawing board or sheet of paper.
As a display
This is a common position when using Cintiq as a primary display, and when your work requires a large amount of keyboard input. This is also useful when presenting your work to co-workers or clients.
21
Working with the Cintiq Stand
Rotating Cintiq
Rotating freely :
If you remove the lock brackets and tilt the Cintiq more than 50 degrees, the main unit can be freely rotated on the stand between +180 and -180 degrees without touching the desktop. In this position, Cintiq emulates a traditional animator’ s table and gives you the freedom to rotate the display unit to any angle for the greatest comfort and accuracy of stroke while drawing or editing images.
Rotating 90 degrees and fix :
To use Cintiq in a portrait orientation, rotate the main unit 90 degrees clockwise and fix with the lock brakets.
To change the image displayed by Cintiq to portrait orientation, you need to purchase and install Pivot® software by Portrait Displays® (www.portrait.com). With Cintiq in portrait orientation, select the portrait option in the Pivot software. The Interactive Pen Display and Grip Pen orientation will adjust to portrait mode. Note that the tablet driver only supports a 90 degree clockwise rotation to portrait orientation.
CAUTION
Unless you need to rotate Cintiq, always fix the main unit to the stand. If not fixed, the stand can fall from the
main unit when moving Cintiq to a different location if Cintiq is in landscape orientation; it may cause physical injury or damage to the stand. If Cintiq is not fixed to the stand, when moving to a different location Cintiq may unexpectedly rotate and fall from your hands.
If you have to move Cintiq to a different location when Cintiq is unfixed to the stand, be sure to remove the
main unit from the stand and then move both items separately.
22
Using an Alternate Mount or Stand
To use Cintiq in an installation that requires the use of an alternate mounting platform, you will need to obtain a VESA conforming mount arm or stand which has:
A 100 x 100 mm square screw hole pattern to attach the Cintiq main unit
An aperture of sufficient clearance to accommodate the Cintiq cable and bearing hub (70 mm diameter)
A VESA mounting platform will require mount screws that are 4 mm wide with a 0.7 mm pitch (M4 Regular), and a maxi­mum screw clearance depth of 10 mm. Exceeding the clearance depth of 10 mm will damage Cintiq internal components. To attach Cintq to a different mounting platform:
Bearing hub
Turn off your computer and power off Cintiq. Then disconnect
all cables.
Protect the display screen surface by spreading a soft cloth onto
a flat table and placing Cintiq face down on the cloth.
Using the appropriate screws for your mounting platform, firmly
attach Cintiq to the alternate mounting platform. Be sure the integral cable and bearing hub pass through the mount aperture without binding or excess pressure. Do not detach the bearing hub.
Using the appropriate screws for your mounting platform, firmly
attach Cintiq to the alternate mounting platform.
Refer to the appropriate installation instructions in this manual,
and reattach the cabling.
When attaching Cintiq onto an alternate mounting platform, be sure to follow all instructions in the documentation supplied by the platform manufacturer. If improperly installed, the unit could fall and be damaged.

Caring for Cintiq
Cleaning
To clean the Cintiq casing,
use paint thinner, benzine, alcohol, or other organic solvents to clean Cintiq casing or pen.
To clean the display screen,
amount of pressure to the display screen and do not make the surface wet. Do not use detergent to clean the display screen; this may damage the coating on the screen. Please note that damage of this kind is not covered by the manufac­turer’s warranty.
Replacing the Pen Tip
The pen tip will wear with normal use. When the nib gets too short, you can replace it with one of the extra nibs that came with your pen. If the pen tip wears and becomes angular, it may damage the coating on the cover glass of Cintiq Interac­tive Pen Display. To avoid this, periodic nib replacement is recommended.
use a soft cloth with mild detergent (such as dish washing liquid) diluted with water. Do not
use an antistatic cloth or slightly moisten damp cloth. When cleaning, apply only a light
24
To remove the old nib:
Clasp it with the o-ring tool that came with your pen and pull the old nib straight out of the pen.
To insert a new nib:
Slide it straight into the barrel of the pen. Firmly push the nib until it stops. The new nib will slide into the correct position.
CAUTION
Prevent your children from swallowing the pen nib or side switch. The pen nib or side switch may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them.
