Here are some other points to keep in mind:

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

• Use a gentle grip when working with your pen.

• Alternate tasks and tools 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.

Index

SETTING UP YOUR WORK AREA

To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position your tablet, pen, and keyboard so they are easily accessible without unnecessary reaching. Your monitor should be positioned so you can view it comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain. For best results, orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.

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.

USING THE CORDLESS PEN

There are four basic techniques for using the pen: pointing, clicking, double-clicking, and dragging. If you are unfamiliar with using the pen, try the exercises on the following pages.

Holding the pen About the active area Pointing Clicking Dragging Using the pen buttons Writing and Inking with pressure sensitivity Eye-hand coordination exercise

HOLDING THE PEN

Hold the Bamboo One pen like you would hold a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the pen buttons are in a convenient location where you can toggle them with your thumb or forefinger, but not accidently press them while drawing or navigating with the pen. You can tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable.

Important: When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen rest or lay it flat on your desk. To maintain the sensitivity of your pen tip, do not store the pen in a container where it will rest on its tip. Leaving the Bamboo One pen on the tablet active area may interfere with screen cursor positioning when using other pointing devices. Also, leaving the pen on the tablet active area when not in use can prevent your computer from going to sleep.

Screen area

The pointer in the screen area indicates pen position, and the pointer follows the movements of the pen.

Index

ABOUT THE ACTIVE AREA

The active area is the area of the tablet that senses pen movement. The screen area is the corresponding area on the screen.

The tablet active area is a mapped representation of your computer screen (a one-to-one relationship), and uses the entire screen. Wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. This is the default setting for the pen.

Contents Index

Contents

Try moving the screen cursor by lifting the pen and placing the pen tip in a new location on the tablet. The cursor instantly jumps to the new location.

When positioning the screen cursor and operating a pen button, the pen tip needs to be within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet surface. You do not need to touch the tablet with the pen tip in order to move the screen cursor or use a pen button.

5 mm (0.20 inch)

Hints

• If you find that using a pen is somewhat difficult, try the eye-hand coordination exercise

• Pointing is easier when you orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.

CLICKING

You typically click to highlight or select something on the screen, and double-click to open it.

Clicking register a click. (If C on, then you will hear a “click” sound when the pen tip is pressed hard enough to generate a button click.) Try clicking on a folder icon by moving the screen cursor over the icon and pressing down on the pen tip. The folder should highlight when you press.

AN/SCROLL lets you position a document or image in any

direction within the active window by pressing the pen button and moving the pen tip across the tablet’s active area. As you move the pen tip, the document or image is repositioned to follow the direction of pen movement on the tablet. Release the pen button or lift the pen tip from the tablet surface when you are done.

In some application windows the document will precisely follow the screen cursor as you move the pen tip, while in others it will simply move in the same general direction as the screen cursor.

USING THE PEN BUTTONS

The Bamboo One pen has two buttons. Each button has a programmable function that is selected when you press the button. You can use a pen button whenever the pen tip is within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet active area. You do not have to touch the pen tip to the tablet in order to use a button.

To assign new button functions, see customizing the pen buttons

Contents Index

Contents

To write, ink, or sketch with pressure sensitivity, move the pen along the surface of the tablet while applying various amounts of pressure downward on the tip of the pen. Press hard for thick lines or dense color. Press gently for thin lines or softer color. Note that some applications require that you first select a pressure-sensitive tool from the application’s tool palette.

To adjust the tip feel, see adjusting tip feel and

double-click.

Visit our web site for a list of applications that support pressure. See product information

Index

WRITING AND INKING WITH PRESSURE SENSITIVITY

The Bamboo One pen responds to your hand movements, enabling you to create natural-looking pen and brush strokes. The digital ink drawing tools in many graphics applications, respond to the pressure you place on the pen. For example, sliders are used in some applications to vary line characteristics (width, color, and opacity). These characteristics can be controlled much better by the pen’s pressure sensitivity – you can vary line width, blend colors, and change opacity with the pressure you exert upon the pen.

tools in Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, and Office 2007 or later, as well as the

EYE-HAND COORDINATION EXERCISE

This exercise is designed to retrain your eye-hand coordination for using the pen:

1. Open any graphics application. Use the line tool to sketch a rectangular grid with line spacings of about 20-25 mm (3/4 to 1 inch). You can use your traditional mouse to do this.

2. Choose a free-hand tool in your application and use the pen to add a dot at each grid intersection.

3. Place an X at each grid intersection.

4. Now sketch a circle around each intersection.

5. Clear your screen and make a simple illustration of your own. The more you use your pen, the easier drawing and navigation will become.

WORKING WITH THE TABLET

The middle area of the tablet is the working, or active, area for the pen. Rest your hand on the tablet and then work with the pen on the active area of the tablet just as if you were using a ball point pen on a piece of paper. Wherever you place your pen on the tablet active area, the screen cursor will jump to the corresponding point on the screen. See using the cordless pen

Customizes the amount of pressure needed to click, write, or ink. Drag the slider to a softer or firmer setting.

Adjusts the size of the double-click area and the double-click speed. A larger setting makes double-clicking easier.

Hints:

• Use a soft T

IP FEEL for a wider range of pressure values with most pressure-sensitive applications.

• In some applications, a soft pressure setting can make the pen overreact – any small press on the pen is magnified on the screen. If you experience this, try a firmer T

IP FEEL setting.

• To make double-clicking easier, expand the tap area that accepts a double-click (the double-click distance). A large double-click distance may cause a delay at the beginning of brush strokes in some drawing

applications. This may also cause a delay at the beginning of a drag action or inking stroke. If you notice such effects, try setting a smaller double-click distance and using a pen button to double-click (see using the pen

buttons).

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most of the time your tablet will work flawlessly. But if you are having trouble, Wacom recommends you do the following:

1. If the pen tablet driver failed to load properly, first perform the recommended action in any error message that may appear on your screen. If that does not solve the problem, refer to the troubleshooting procedures in this chapter.

2. Look in the troubleshooting tables offered.

3. Open the pen tablet Read Me file for late-breaking information.

4. Test your tablet and pen. See testing your tablet and pen

5. If you are having a compatibility conflict between Bamboo One and a new hardware or software product, check if a newer pen tablet software driver is available. See obtaining driver downloads information on downloading an updated software driver. Wacom periodically updates the software driver to maintain compatibility with new products.

6. Check the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) on the Wacom web site for your region.

TESTING YOUR TABLET AND PEN

1. Turn on your computer and wait until the system has fully loaded.

2. Check the tablet and your computer has registered it as a USB device. If the LED is on, continue with step 3.

If not:

• Make sure the tablet USB cable is securely connected to an active USB port on your computer.

• If you are connecting the tablet to a USB hub (or hub device such as a keyboard with USB ports), be

sure the USB hub is properly connected to your computer and is active.

• Check the cable for damage.

• Connect the tablet to a different USB port or try connecting to the USB port on another computer.

• If the status LED does not illuminate after your computer is on and has finished booting up, your

USB port may be disabled. Verify that you have connected the tablet to an active USB port.

. The tablet’s orange status LED will light whenever the tablet is properly connected

3. Check the pen pen to its default settings. Next:

• Touch the pen tip to the tablet active area. The status LED on the tablet should change from orange

to green each time the tip makes contact with the tablet surface.

• Without applying pressure to the pen tip, hold the pen tip within approximately 5 mm (0.20 inch) of

the tablet surface and press each pen button in turn. The status LED should again change from orange to green each time a pen button is pressed

• While still within proximity, but without touching the tablet surface, move your pen across the active

area of the tablet. The screen cursor should move in the corresponding direction on your monitor or display screen.

4. If any of these tests fail you may have defective hardware. See technical support options

5. After testing, use the Bamboo control panel to reconfigure your tablet and pen for any custom settings you may originally have been using.

CARING FOR YOUR TABLET AND PEN

Keep your Bamboo One pen and tablet surface clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to your pen and cause excessive wear to the tablet surface. Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth will help to prolong the life of your tablet surface and pen; you can also dampen the cloth using a very mild soap diluted with water. Do not

Keep your tablet and pen in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is best. Also, your pen and tablet are not made to come apart. Twisting the pen case can break the pen. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.

Important: Take care to never spill liquids onto the tablet or pen. Be especially careful of getting the pen buttons and tip wet – they contain sensitive electronic parts that will fail if liquid enters them.

REPLACING THE PEN TIP

The pen tip (nib) will wear with normal use. Replace the pen nib when it gets too short – less than 1 mm (.04 inch) – or develops a flat point.

Clasp the old nib with a tweezer, needle-nosed pliers, or similar instrument and pull it straight out of the pen. Then slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen – firmly push the nib until it stops.

use volatile liquids, such as paint thinner or benzene, as they may damage the plastic case.

Warning: Prevent children from swallowing the pen tip or pen buttons. The pen tip (nib) or pen buttons may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them.

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.

Index

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.

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.

Click force. The amount of force you must apply to the tip of your pen for a click to occur.

Digital ink. A broad category that typically describes handwritten content which has been created using pen-based input on a computer. This handwritten content takes the form of sketches, ink mark-up, or handwriting. The handwriting can optionally be converted to typewritten text or simply left alone for use in its original format. Depending on your system and application settings, the handwritten text you make with digital ink can be converted on-the-fly or at another time.

Double-click distance. The maximum distance (in screen pixels) that the cursor can move between clicks and still be accepted as a double-click. Increasing the double-click distance makes double-clicking easier, but may cause a delay in brush strokes in some graphics applications.

Journal. A Microsoft Windows application that electronically simulates a physical journal pad, but with the advantages of digital note-taking. For example, you can create quick sketches and jot handwritten notes that can be converted to text and sent on to colleagues for digital mark-up. Journal includes a variety of pen, marker, and highlighter tools. Additionally, your handwritten content is searchable within Journal.

Mapping. The relationship between your Bamboo One pen position on the tablet and the cursor position on the display screen.

Modifier. Modifier keys include S for Macintosh. You can customize your Bamboo One pen buttons to simulate a modifier key.

Mouse acceleration. A setting that allows you to adjust the screen cursor acceleration when your Bamboo One pen is in mouse mode.

Mouse mode. A method for positioning the screen cursor. When you place the Bamboo One pen on the tablet, you can move the screen cursor with a “pick up and slide” motion similar to using a traditional mouse. This is known as relative positioning. See also pen mode

Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP). The Microsoft Windows 7 and Vista Tablet PC Input Panel enables you to use your Bamboo One 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. See also pen and digital ink capabilities in Windows
