INSTALLATION

The computer treats the interactive pen display as two separate devices (the display and the pen tablet). Therefore, the installation process is completed in two stages:

• First install as a display.

• Then install as a pen tablet. Both stages require hardware and software installations and adjustments. Carefully follow ALL

instructions.

Important: You MUST install the Wacom driver software for correct pen-on-screen functionality.

System requirements Step 1: Display installation Step 2: Pen tablet installation

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Make sure your computer meets the following minimum system requirements:

• PC. DTK-2241: Windows 8, Windows 7, Vista Windows 7 only. DVI or VGA connector, available USB port, and CD-ROM drive.

• Macintosh. OS X, v10.6 or greater. DVI or VGA connector, or Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter, available USB port, and CD-ROM drive.

The pen display supports both digital (DVI) and analog (VGA) video signals. If you are updating your video card, complete the video card installation before connecting the pen display. If you have another display that is compatible with your video card, you can use that display to verify the video card is operating correctly.

Although you can connect the pen display to either a DVI or VGA video card, connecting to a DVI video card generally results in optimum performance.

Notes:

You may be able to set up the pen display as a mirrored, extended, or independent display. When working with more than one monitor, the pen display will map to the monitors based upon how your system is configured. By default, if you are in mirror mode, the pen display will map to the entire space on each monitor.

Notes:

Each interactive pen display LCD panel is produced under very stringent quality standards. Production techniques cannot guarantee an absolutely perfect display, and some panels may exhibit a certain number of pixels that show an incorrect color. See the Product information

for more

information. If an image has fine striping (such as screen stripes), it may appear to flicker or display a moiré

pattern. Do not apply excessive pressure on the display screen surface, it may cause the appearance of a

moiré or pooling pattern. If this occurs, use less pressure on the display screen when working with the pen.

When a still image is displayed for a long period of time, an after-image may remain for a short time. To prevent this, use a screen saver or other power management feature.

To extend the life of the pen display backlight, set your computer’s power management to turn off the display when it is not in use for extended periods of time.

WORKING WITH THE INTERACTIVE PEN DISPLAY

As you work with the pen display you can rest your hand lightly on the display screen, just as if it were a sheet of paper.

Because the pen display surface will be a little higher than your desk, consider adjusting the height of your desk or chair to assure comfortable use of the device.

Ergonomics Using the pen Working with multiple monitors Adjusting the display

ERGONOMICS

To minimize fatigue, comfortably organize your work area. Position your pen display, the pen, and your keyboard for easy access without unnecessary reaching. The pen display and any other displays should be positioned so you can view them comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain.

• Take short breaks between tasks to stretch and relax your muscles.

• Use a gentle grip when working with the pen.

• Alternate tasks throughout the day.

• Maintain a good posture at all times. Minimize awkward postures and repetitive movements that cause discomfort.

• Change your position if you feel any discomfort due to your work position.

Note regarding RSI: Wacom makes no representation, promise or guarantee that Wacom products will cure or

prevent, in whole or in part, mouse-induced repetitive stress symptoms, injuries or conditions. Individual results may vary. Always obtain competent medical advice to determine the most appropriate treatment for your specific situation.

Tips:

Be careful that you do not pull the cables out of their connections by accidentally moving the pen display too far from the computer.

THE MULTI-TOUCH EXPERIENCE: DTH-2242

The DTH-2242 pen display provides interactive multi-touch functions, which enable you to interact with a computer using only your fingertips on the pen display screen surface.

You can use touch on the DTH-2242 as you would on any other Mac or Windows device, such as phones, trackpads, and notebooks. First learn the basic actions to navigate and perform typical mouse operations. Then learn how to scroll, zoom, and rotate.

Touch is activated whenever it is enabled and you touch the display screen surface.

• When using touch, you can generally position your fingers as far apart as is comfortable. However, placing your fingers too closely together may be interpreted by the pen display as input from a single finger, or it may confuse which finger initiated or performed an action or gesture. Your fingers must remain within the active area of the screen surface.

• Experiment with touch to see what works best for you. Take care to prevent accidental touches on the display screen when making gestures. For example, if your small finger touches the display screen surface when zooming or scrolling, you may trigger an unanticipated right-click.

Note: For product models that support both pen and multi-touch, you can simultaneously work with the

pen and touch in supporting applications. For example, you might use touch to turn a 3D object while using the pen to sculpt a surface texture. The pen has priority over touch whenever the pen tip is within proximity of the pen display screen. Lift the pen and your hand away from the display screen surface to enable touch.
