Always read and comply with the instructions in the documentation of
your computer before connecting the graphics tablet.
If the device is exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations, condensa-
tion can lead to the accumulation of moisture which can cause a short circuit. In this case wait until the device has reached ambient temperature before use.
To disconnect a cable, always pull the connector and never the cable.
Ensure that the cables are not kinked. Always position the cables so that they cannot be stepped on or cause an obstruction.
Never place any burning objects such as candles or any objects contain-
ing liquids such as vases, cups or glasses on or near the device.
Never exert excessive pressure on the nib of the digital pen, as this will
damage the nib.
Keep the device away from high-frequency and magnetic interference
sources (e.g. TVs, mobile phones, loudspeakers) to prevent functional faults.
Only use a battery of the same type and the same charging capacity. Al-
ways ensure correct polarity of the battery. Remove the battery if you will not be using the device for a prolonged period of time, as it can leak. Contact with the skin will cause chemical burns. For this reason it is ab­solutely essential to remove leaking batteries with acid-resistant protec­tive gloves.

Configuration
Programming macro keys
You can assign a program start command (e.g."Save file") or a key combina­tion (hotkey) to a macro key (K1 to K26). If you then click on a programmed macro key with the pen, this command is executed.
The macro key commands are managed in so-called profiles. In the featured default profiles (XP/2000, Vista, Windows 7, Photoshop Elements, PhotoIm­pact XL SE, Corel Draw), the macro keys are sometimes assigned standard commands which cannot be changed.
All other macro keys can be defined and edited. If the default profiles do not meet your requirements, you can create your own profiles.
Proceed as follows to program macro keys:
1. Double-click the "Macro Key Manager" icon in the system tray of the Windows taskbar
.
The "Macro Key Manager" is then opened. The following example de­scribes how to use this program.
2. Select a profile from the drop down list at the top left (shown here with the entry "Windows 7").
Click the [New] button to create a new profile. Click the [Delete] button to remove the profile shown in the drop down list
if you no longer need it. We will now create a new profile for the "Free Notes" program.
English - 23
SilverCrest graphics tablet SGT 10.6 A1
3. Proceed as follows:
Click the [New] button. The "New" dialogue box is opened (see be-
low).
Enter the name of the profile under "File name". Enter the name of the
corresponding program here, in this case "Free Notes".
Click the [...] button and in the selection dialogue box which then
opens select the "HWemail.exe" file (this is the executable file of the "Free Notes" program). You can also create profiles for any program in this manner. Close the selection dialogue box by clicking [OK].
The "New" dialogue box should look as shown in the example below:
Close the dialogue box by clicking [OK].
The new profile "Free Notes" which you created in step 3 then appears in the drop down list at the top of the "Macro Key Manager".
4. In the drop down list below (shown here with the entry "K1"), select the macro key to which you want to assign a command in the selected profile (in this case "Free Notes").
5. To activate the other input fields, tick the "Setting" box. Otherwise the input fields are inactive (grey).
24 - English
SilverCrest graphics tablet SGT 10.6 A1
6. You can then assign a so-called "hotkey" or a "link" to the macro key K1. A "hotkey" is a key combination defined by the program or operating
system which executes a certain function. In Windows programs, for ex­ample, you can use the key combination <Ctrl>+<c> to copy the currently selected object (text, graphic, circle, line etc.) onto the clipboard and then paste this object to the current cursor position with the key combination <Ctrl>+<v>.
A "link" is a reference to an executable file. This link therefore also starts a program. If you click the [...] button, a dialogue box is opened in which you can select the required program.
The following section describes how to assign a hotkey, in this case the function <Ctrl>+<P> (print) to the macro key K1.
7. Proceed as follows:
Activate the "Use hotkey" radio button. Tick the box in front of "Ctrl" and select "P" in the drop down list. In the "Hint" box enter the word "Print".
This text is displayed when the "Free Notes" profile is active and ... when you position the cursor on the macro key K1 in the preview area
of the "Macro Key Manager". when you position the pen on the macro key K1 when you are working
with the graphics tablet.
Click the [Confirm] button (save).
English - 25
SilverCrest graphics tablet SGT 10.6 A1
You can then program more macro keys either in the same profile or in a different profile which you can select in the top left drop down list. It is on­ly important that you click [Confirm] when you have specified the com­mand.
8. You then only have to activate the profile. Tick the "Activate this profile" box.
Only one profile can be activated at one time. Functions which you have defined in a "disabled" profile are not executed. Therefore only the as­signed functions of the macro keys of the activated profile are available.
Note: The functions of hotkeys and links are only available if the software
belonging to the selected profile is active.
9. If you do not want to change any more settings, click [OK] and con f irm the subsequent query asking if you want to save your settings with [OK].
