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. By default, if you are in mirror mode, the pen display will map to the entire space on each monitor.

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 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

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).
