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.

TESTING THE INTERACTIVE PEN DISPLAY

1. If the pen display power LED does not light, check the following:

• First verify that the light on the power adapter is on. If the light is not on, check that the power cable

is properly connected to the power adapter and to an active AC outlet.

• Check that the power adapter cable is securely connected to the pen display and that the power

switch is turned on. The power LED will glow orange or blue whenever the pen display is on.

Important: Use only an AC adapter specified for use with your pen display. Other adapters may cause

damage to your product.

2. If there is no display:

• Make sure that your computer is turned on. The power LED will light blue when the proper video

signal is received. It will glow orange if there is no video signal or if the computer is in a power saving mode.

• Verify that the pen display is connected to an active DVI or VGA connector.

• Check that your video card has been properly installed and is functional. If you have another

display that is compatible with your video card, you can connect that display to the card in order to verify that the video card is operating correctly.

3. Verify that the tablet portion of your pen display and pen are working:

• Press the pen tip against the display and verify that the status LED lights blue.

• If the LED does not light, verify that the USB cable is plugged into an active USB port. If the

interactive pen display is plugged into a USB hub, try plugging it directly into the USB port on your computer.

• Be sure that the USB port to which you are connecting has not been disabled. It may be necessary

to check your system BIOS setting to verify that you have connected the pen display to an active USB port.

• The status LED will light blue when the pen display is registered as a USB device and the pen tip is

pressed against the display.

4. Check the pen. If you cannot make a selection on the display screen with the pen:

• Test the pen by pressing the pen tip against the surface of the pen display. The pen display status

LED should light blue.

• Now, without applying pressure to the pen tip but keeping the pen within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the pen

display surface, press the side switch. The status LED should again light blue.

• If the status LED does not light blue for these tests, be sure you are using a pen specified for use

with your product.

•See Tes tin g y ou r pe n

If you are still having problems, you may have a defective pen or pen display.

PEN TABLET TROUBLESHOOTING

If you encounter problems with the tablet portion of the interactive pen display, see the following tables. Your problem may be described here, and you can try the solution offered. For additional information, visit Wacom’s website at http://www.wacom.com/support.

GENERAL PROBLEMS

The computer does not have an available USB port.

A USB device plugged into one of the pen display USB ports does not function.

The pen display power LED is off.

The pen works only in mouse mode, and does not draw or write with pressure sensitivity.

Check if there is an available USB port on a USB hub. If not available you will need to add a USB hub or USB card.

1. Make sure the pen display itself is properly connected to a working USB port on your computer.

2. Then be sure the pen display is powered on and that the power LED lights blue. The unit contains a powered USB hub and the integrated USB ports will not work when the power is off.

3. If the USB device does not work, try plugging it into a USB port directly on your computer.

4. If your USB device is still not functioning properly, contact the manufacturer for that particular device.

Make sure the pen display power switch is turned on. Check that the AC power adapter is plugged into both the pen display

and an active power outlet. Use only a power adapter specified for use with your pen display; other

adapters may cause damage to your product. The driver software for the tablet portion of the pen display was not

installed or did not load properly. Make sure the driver software is installed and functioning. Install the driver software in accordance with the instructions found in

the Installation

section of this manual.

When using the pen display on a multiple monitor system, you cannot use the pen to control the other monitor(s).

The line you are sketching does not line up with the location of the screen cursor.

The computer does not go to sleep.

The screen cursor jumps back when using your regular mouse or trackball.

The screen cursor moves erratically or jumps around on the display screen when another tablet is connected to your computer.

When working in some applications, the ExpressKeys perform a different function than what is set in the Wacom Tablet control panel.

Set a pen button to DISPLAY TOGGLE, and then press that button to cycle between pen control for the pen display and your other displays.

You can also use your pen to control the other monitors in mouse mode. To use mouse mode, first set a pen side switch function to M

ODE TOGGLE.... Then use the switch to toggle between pen mode and

mouse mode. To function properly, some applications require that the pen is set to

pen mode. Make sure the pen has not

been toggled to mouse mode.

If the pen is set to pen mode and the problem still exists, then you may have a corrupted preferences file. Follow the instructions in the Windows or Macintosh troubleshooting sections to create a new preferences file.

When you are not using the pen, remove it from the pen display surface or the pen display will continue to send data, keeping the computer awake.

When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen storage compartment, or at some location near the pen display – but not on the display. Leaving your pen on the display may interfere with screen cursor positioning when using other input devices.

The tablet portion of the interactive pen display emits electromagnetic waves at a certain frequency. If another tablet is too closely placed to the unit it may interfere with screen cursor positioning. If this occurs, move the tablet further away from the pen display.

Some applications can override and control the ExpressKey functions. If using application-specific settings, be sure you have updated the

settings for the application you are working with.

MULTI-TOUCH PROBLEMS

Multi-touch does not work. Enable touch by pressing an ExpressKey that is set to TOUCH ON/OFF.

OUCH

Multi-touch does not seem to fully work. The screen cursor can be moved, but more complex actions or gestures do not work.

The pen display does not reliably recognize multi-finger touch.

Rotation gestures do not seem to work consistently, or not at all.

Otherwise, open the Wacom Tablet control panel, click on the T icon, and go to the S O

PTIONS tab. Be sure the ENABLE TOUCH option is selected.

TANDARD GESTURES, MY GESTURES, or TOUCH

If the tablet driver does not load properly, basic touch movement will be recognized but other actions and gestures will not. Install the driver software.

If you hold your fingers too close together, the pen display may not recognize them as being separate. Try moving your fingers a little further apart.

Rotation may work differently depending on the application you are working with. For example, rotation may work smoothly, in 90-degree increments, or not at all.

For best recognition of this gesture, start with your fingers positioned diagonally on the tablet surface and keep them at least 25 mm (1 inch) apart.

Keep the pen display and pen in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is best. The pen display and pen are not made to come apart. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.

Important: Take care to never spill liquids onto the pen display or pen. Be especially careful of getting the

display, or pen buttons and tip wet as they contain sensitive electronic parts that will fail if liquids enter them.

To clean the pen display casing or the pen very mild soap diluted with water. Do not use paint thinner, benzine, alcohol, or other solvents to clean the unit casing or pen.

To clean the display screen light 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 pen display screen. Please note that damage of this kind is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Clasp the old nib with a Wacom nib extraction tool, pair of tweezers, needle-nosed pliers, or similar instrument and pull it straight out of the pen.

Slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen. Firmly push the nib until it stops. The new nib will slide into the correct position.

Warning

Choking hazard. Prevent 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.

Replace the pen nib when it gets too short, or less than 1 mm (0.04 inch).

Contents Index

REPLACING THE PEN TIP

The pen tip (nib) will wear with normal use. Excessive pressure will cause it to wear sooner. If your pen display has a coated surface a worn nib may cause damage. To avoid this, periodic tip replacement is recommended.

When the nib gets too short or develops a sharp edge, replace it with one of the extra nibs that came with the pen.

Important: When not in use, place the pen in the pen storage compartment or lay it flat on your desk.

Take care not to damage the pen nib when inserting or removing the pen from the storage compartment. To maintain the sensitivity of your pen, do not store the tool in a container where it will rest on its tip.
