Working Area

Select the Working Area tab to adjust the ratio of the distance of pen movement on the pen display to that of the corresponding cursor movement on the monitor. By default, the entire active area of the pen display maps to the whole monitor.

If more than one monitor is in use and they are in extended mode, users need to choose one that will be mapped to on the driver interface and the other one as the external display.

In mirror mode (All monitors display the same content), the pen display maps to the entire screen on each monitor and cursors displayed on them move simultaneously.

1. Working Area Setting

Define the pen display area that will be mapped to the monitor. Three modes on the driver can be chosen:

[1] Full Area: The entire active area of the pen display will be mapped to the monitor. It is the default setting.

[2] Screen Ratio: The ratio of the active pen display area is the same as that of the monitor, which as a general rule, is 16:9. For example, if you choose the screen ratio and draw a circle on the pen display, then a circle appears on the monitor that has been connected to the pen display, in this case some parts of the pen display may not work. But if you don't choose the screen ratio and draw a circle, then the circle may change into an oval on the monitor.

The ratio of the active pen display area depends on that of the display device, which as a general rule, is 16:9. In Screen Ratio mode, these two ratios keep the same.

[3] Custom Area:

1> Enter coordinate values.

2> Users can adjust the working area of the pen display by changing the outlines of the smaller rectangle (see picture 1). Users can also drag the two blue rectangles to select the active areas of the digital pen on the screen and the pen tablet. (see picture 2 and 3).

Users can adjust the pressure sensitivity level by dragging the slider in the Pressure Sensitivity Adjustment box according to your usage habits. Click the redo button at the top right to revert to the default pressure.

(1) To decide the force required for a pen to produce a click or a pressure sensation.
(2) You can change the slope of the pressure response curve.
(3) To determine how much pressure needs to be applied to the pen nib to reach the highest pressure sensitivity level.

*Draw lines in the Pressure Test box with the pen, and the bar on the right will simultaneously show the pressure changes on the pen nib. Click the "Delete" button above to remove the lines, reset the pressure sensitivity level and test it until you find the appropriate pressure sensitivity level.

*A steep curve means a more sensitive response.

How to Use the Digital Pen

Hold the Pen:

Hold the digital pen as you hold a real pen. Adjust your grip so that you can toggle the pen press keys easily with your thumb or index finger. Be careful not to accidentally press the key while drawing with the pen.

Note: Please place the pen on the table when it is not in use. Do not put the pen on the pen display, otherwise it may interfere with the function of the mouse and other devices, and it may also prevent your computer from entering sleep mode.

Cursor Movement:

Move the pen slightly above the working area of the display without touching the surface of the pen display, and the cursor on the screen will move to the new position accordingly. Use the digital pen to touch the screen with a certain amount of force, and then you can make a left-click.

Click:

Tap on the pen display with the pen to register a click. Press lightly to highlight or select an item on the screen and double-click to open it.

Move:

Pick up a file or icon, then slide the pen nib across the display to move it.

Use the Pen Press Keys:

There are two press keys on the digital pen, whose functions can be programmed on the driver interface. The press keys on the pen will work as long as the vertical distance between the pen nib and the display is within 10mm.

Replace the Pen Nib:

Tip: When the pen nib is badly worn, please replace it with a new pen nib timely.

  1. Rotate the pen holder counterclockwise and take out a replacement nib.

  2. Tilt the pen, and pull the nib out of the pen through a nib clip.

  3. Insert the replacement nib straight into the barrel of the pen until the nib stops moving forward.
