Using the Pen

Pen

Hold the pen as you would a pencil. Make sure the side switch is in a convenient location
where you can press it with your thumb or forefinger, but won't accidentally press it
while drawing.
Second Side Switch
Side Switch
Tip Switch
Pen Tip
When the pen tip is within proximity (5 mm or 0.2 in) of the active area, the tablet
reports:
- The x, y coordinates of the pen tip.
- The pressure applied to the pen tip.
- Whether a side switch is on or off.
When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen
simulates a mouse button click.
Eraser
To use the eraser, hold the pen upside down. When the eraser is within proximity
of the active area, the tablet reports the x, y coordinates and the pressure applied to
the eraser.
The eraser can be used as an eraser or assigned to another function, depending on
the application. The tablet distinguishes the tip switch from the eraser switch.
Side Switch and Second Side Switch
These switches are programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and
double-click functions as the tip switch. The switches are turned on when pressed,
and are otherwise turned off. Please refer to the online Help for more information
on side switch settings.
