Before connecting the display to your computer, you should install the software driver package. You can install the driver from the included CD or go to www.monoprice.com and download the latest version of the driver for installation. After launching the installer, follow the on screen instructions to complete the installation.
SOFTWARE OPERATION Press Keys Tab The pen display features 10 hotkeys, which can be assigned to perform any single keystroke, mouse action, or combination of keystrokes. To set these keys, open the installed software and click on the Press Keys tab. Next, hover the mouse over the key you want to configure, then click on the key label to open the key edit screen.

To do so, click the button associated with the button you want to change to open the key assignment dialog. Additionally, you can set and test the pressure sensitivity of the pen tip.
Work Area Tab When using the pen display as the only monitor on your computer system, the working area (the part of the display that is pen responsive) is the entire display by default. However, when using the pen display in conjunction with other monitors on your system, you need to determine the location of the pen display in relation to your main display and determine whether it will be a mirror of the main display or whether it will extend the desktop.
