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.

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. See your hardware and operating system documentation for details
on configuring your system for use with multiple monitors.

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
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 pen tether can be used to ensure your pen stays with your pen display. Simply loop one end of
the tether through the tether hole located on the pen, and the other end of the tether through the
tether connection point located on either side of the pen display.
The pen display can also be mounted to articulated arms or other third-party stands meeting the
VESA specification for display stands. For details, see Using an alternate mount or stand

The pen responds to the nuance and inflection of your hand movements, enabling you to create naturallooking pen strokes within applications that support this feature. To annotate and write with pressure,
select a pressure-sensitive tool from your application’s tool palette. As you work on the screen surface,
use various amounts of downward pressure on the tip of the pen.
WORKING WITH MULTIPLE MONITORS
When you are working with the pen display and additional monitors on the same system, the screen cursor
movement on the standard monitors will depend on your system configuration.
If a second monitor is connected in mirror mode, both the pen display and the other monitor will show
identical images and screen cursor movement.
If you are using the pen display with other monitors in extended monitor mode, you have several options
for navigating on the other monitors:
• Set a pen side switch to the D
screen cursor between the pen display and your other displays. For example, your product can be
used as a pen display (the screen cursor is positioned at the pen tip location) or toggled for use as a
standard Wacom tablet (the screen cursor can be moved across the entire desktop or additional

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.
