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. Windows 7, Vista CD-ROM drive.
Macintosh. OS X, v10.4 or greater. DVI or VGA connector, or Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter, available USB port, and CD-ROM drive.
, XP (32 and 64 bit). DVI or VGA connector, available USB port, and
The pen display supports both digital (DVI) and analog (VGA) video signals. If updating your video card, first 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.

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 specifications
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.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

Important: You MUST install the Wacom driver software for correct pen-on-screen functionality. Save your work and close all open applications. Temporarily disable any virus protection programs.
Insert the Installation CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. If the software installer menu does not automatically display, double-click on the I install the latest software driver, when available, from the Wacom web site for your region.)
•Click I
NSTALL TABLET and follow the prompts to install the driver software.
Reactivate your virus protection program.
After completing the software installation, make sure you can use your pen on the interactive pen display to move the screen cursor.
When you place the pen tip on the display screen, the screen cursor should immediately jump to a corresponding position approximately beneath the pen tip. Lift the pen tip and place it on the display screen surface in a different location. The screen cursor should again jump to the new position. This is known as absolute positioning, and enables you to position the screen cursor without having to drag your pen across the display screen surface.
Be sure to check the Read Me file for updated information. If you have trouble installing the pen display, see troubleshooting
.
Notes:
Driver installation automatically activates the new pen input functions available within Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, and Office 2007 or later (except for Windows 7 Starter and Home Basic, and Windows Vista Home Basic). Visit the Wacom web site at www.wacom.com/vista for additional information on using your Wacom pen in Windows.
User-specific preferences are supported. After logging in, each user can customize their personal settings in the Wacom Tablet control panel. Switching to another user will automatically load the settings for that user.
To uninstall the software driver, see uninstalling the interactive pen display If the pen display does not respond properly or you lose cursor control, the pen display preferences
may be corrupted. You can delete the current preference settings and return the pen display to its factory default condition. See managing preferences
Next, see calibrating the pen display

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 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 (if so equipped), 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

As you work on the screen surface, use various amounts of downward pressure on the tip of the pen.

ERASING

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 displays).

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 and that the DVI/VGA
switch is set to the correct video setting.
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.
46
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 or eraser 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.

CARING FOR THE INTERACTIVE PEN DISPLAY

Keep the pen and the LCD screen surface clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to the pen and cause excessive wear to the display screen surface. Regular cleaning will help prolong the life of your LCD screen surface and pen.
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.

LICENCE WARRANTY CONDITIONS
(EUROPE, AFRICA AND MIDDLE EAST)

SOFTWARE LICENCE AGREEMENT

Important customer information
The scope of delivery of this product covers copyright-protected computer programs ("software"), which are the inalienable intellectual property of WACOM Europe GmbH ("WACOM"). This software is an integral component of the product and is also held on the associated data carrier. The software of WACOM and the associated rights of use are not included with the purchase of this product from your retailer. WACOM grants you-the user-the right to use the software exclusively in accordance with the conditions stipulated in this licence agreement. By purchasing this product, you agree to the following licence conditions.
Conditions for using the software
WACOM issues the user with a personal, non-exclusive licence to use the software solely in connection with this product and for the correct operation of the product. This licence may only be assigned to a third party in connection with this product.
Use of this software includes the creation of permanent or temporary copies of the software by means of loading, displaying, exporting, transferring or saving, for the purposes of exporting the commands and the data they contain or for observing, researching or testing the software functions.
The customer may not license the software to a third party, lease, lend or in any other way provide access to the software. The customer may not copy, change, transfer or edit the software without prior written agreement from WACOM. The only exceptions to this are necessary procedures for creating a back-up copy and the scenarios outlined in section 2.
The customer may not carry out any "reverse engineering", decompile or depacketise the software, or try by any other means to discover the source code of the software. This restriction shall continue to apply after the termination of this agreement. If the software contains interfaces to other programs that are not supported by WACOM, WACOM shall provide the customer with the necessary information on request, as long as the customer can prove his right to use the software and agrees to bear the copying and postage costs.
WACOM AND ITS SUPPLIERS CANNOT OFFER ANY GUARANTEE FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SOFTWARE OR FOR THE RESULTS PRODUCED THERE FROM. WACOM AND ITS SUPPLIERS OFFER NO GUARANTEES OR ASSURANCES (EITHER EXPRESSLY OR IMPLICITLY, INCLUDING THOSE THAT MAY BE DERIVED FROM A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP OR FROM TRADE PRACTICE, OR FROM LEGAL PROVISIONS OR CUSTOMARY LAW) WITH REGARD TO THE MARKETABILITY, FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS OF TITLE OR USEFULNESS OF THE SOFTWARE.
WACOM AND ITS SUPPLIERS ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES, CLAIMS OR COSTS OF ANY KIND, NOR FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SECONDARY, ACCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR PENAL DAMAGES, PARTICULAR OR MISCELLANEOUS DAMAGES OR FOR DEMANDS OR INDEMNITY CLAIMS FOR REDUCED PROFITS OR LOSSES. THIS SHALL ALSO APPLY IN THE CASE OF A REPRESENTATIVE OF WACOM BEING PREVIOUSLY AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, DAMAGES, CLAIMS OR COSTS, OR DEMANDS FROM THIRD PARTIES.

The existing limitations on liability shall not apply in the case of the assumption of explicit guarantees, or in case of fraudulent behaviour on the part of WACOM, nor for damages arising from wilful or grossly negligent behaviour on the part of WACOM, from damages leading to loss of life, personal injury or sickness or in the case of binding legal provisions. For slight negligence, WACOM and its suppliers shall only be liable in the event of a breach of essential contractual obligations. Liability when such an essential contractual obligation is breached is, however, limited to damages typical to this type of contract, which WACOM must have determined at the conclusion of the contract based on the known risks and circumstances at that time. Claims for reduced profits or expenses saved, indemnity claims from third parties or claims for any other direct or consequential damages still cannot be asserted in this case.
The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to this agreement. However, the applicability of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is explicitly excluded. Krefeld is the sole place of jurisdiction for all claims arising from this contractual relationship and all disputes between the parties resulting from the formation, handling or termination of the contractual relationship, provided that the customer is a trader, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law.
The jurisdiction agreement shall also apply for customers who do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany. The jurisdiction agreement shall not apply if, due to legal provisions, a different sole place of jurisdiction must be established for the case. Furthermore, WACOM is authorised to file a lawsuit against the headquarters of the customer.
This licence constitutes the entire contractual agreement between the parties. It overrides all other verbal and written contracts and agreements and may only be altered by means of a written and signed contract. Should one of the provisions of these licence conditions be or become void, the validity of the other provisions shall not be affected, in full or in part. Should a provision be invalid, the legally permissible regulation most closely resembling the invalid regulation shall apply in its place.

LIMITED WARRANTY

WACOM guarantees to you, as the initial purchaser, that the product hardware, when used as intended, will remain free from material defects and processing errors for a warranty period of TWO (2) YEARS and Cintiq products shall be guaranteed for a warranty period of THREE (3) YEARS, commencing from the purchase date and provided that the product was unused at the time of purchase. Defects in wear parts (e.g. pen tips) resulting from normal wear and tear are exempt from the warranty. Furthermore, WACOM guarantees that the data carriers delivered with the product are free from material defects and processing errors for a period of SIX (6) MONTHS from the date of purchase.
If the product-excluding any software-is discovered to be faulty it must be returned immediately to the place of purchase in its original packaging within the warranty period together with your name, address and telephone number, a description of the problem and a copy of the original receipt. The customer shall be liable for any possible damage or loss of the product during transit for this purpose. Under the provisions of this warranty, WACOM only undertakes to repair or replace the faulty product or parts at its own discretion, in cases where defects are proven and the product is sent within the warranty period.
WACOM is not obligated to repair or replace the product if: (a) the damage to the product results from any accident, misuse, improper use, negligence or unauthorised alteration or repair; (b) the product was not handled or stored according to the instructions provided by WACOM; (c) the damage resulted from normal wear and tear; or d) the serial number affixed by WACOM has been removed or rendered unintelligible.
If, when a claim made under this warranty is checked, it emerges that it is outside the permitted time period or is not covered by the warranty or that the product is not faulty, the costs of any checks or repairs must be borne by the customer.

Any descriptions, drawings, specifications, samples, models, notifications or similar material provided in connection with the purchase of the product cannot be taken as an explicit guarantee that the product corresponds to or fulfils the customer's requirements.
If this product is faulty, the purchaser shall be entitled to assert legal claims against the vendor for liability due to defects. These legal rights against the vendor are not limited by the existing warranty. The warranty grants the customer many additional rights under the conditions stipulated in this text.
This limited warranty shall apply if the registered office of the vendor is in the EU or in Iceland, Norway, Jersey, Switzerland, Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Serbia, Tunisia, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Iran or South Africa.
The granting of this limited warranty is subject to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. However, the applicability of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is explicitly excluded. Krefeld is the sole place of jurisdiction for all claims arising from this contractual relationship and all disputes between the parties resulting from the formation, handling or termination of the contractual relationship, provided that the customer is a trader, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law.
The jurisdiction agreement shall also apply for customers who do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany. The jurisdiction agreement shall not apply if, due to legal provisions, a different sole place of jurisdiction must be established for the case. Furthermore, WACOM is authorised to file a lawsuit against the headquarters of the customer.
Should one of the provisions of these limited warranty conditions be or become void, the validity of the other provisions shall not be affected, in full or in part. Should a provision be invalid, the legally permissible regulation most closely resembling the invalid regulation shall apply in its place.

Double-click speed. The maximum time that can pass between clicks and still be accepted as a double-click.
Eraser-aware application. A software application that has built-in support for the pen eraser. These applications take advantage of the eraser in different ways, depending on what makes sense for the application.

Pen mode. A method of positioning the screen cursor. Wherever you place your pen on the interactive pen display, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. This is known as absolute positioning, and is the default setting for the pen. Also, pen mode allows you to quickly position the screen cursor without having to first find it and then move it across the desktop. See also mouse mode
. Pixel. The smallest unit of measure on your display screen. Pressure sensitive. A quality of the Wacom pen tip and eraser that senses the amount of pressure being

Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP). The Microsoft Windows Tablet PC Input Panel enables you to use your Wacom pen to create handwritten notes or work with an on-screen keyboard. The Input Panel dynamically converts your handwriting to text. The information you create can then be inserted into other documents, spreadsheets, or illustrations.
