Testing your input tools and pen display controls
If the Grip Pen, or the Cintiq ExpressKeys or Touch Strips do not work as you expect, it is a good idea to
first check the assigned functions or reset them to their default conditions. A quick way to reset a pen to
its default settings is to remove it from the T
OOL
list by clicking on the list’s [ – ] button. After the pen has
been removed, place it back onto the display screen surface and the pen will be re-added to the T
OOL
list with its default settings.
Open the Wacom Tablet control panel and click on the A
BOUT
button. In the dialog box that appears,
click on the D
IAGNOSE
... button to open the D
IAGNOSTICS
dialog box. The D
IAGNOSTICS
dialog box
displays dynamic information about the Cintiq pen display tablet and pen. This information is used
when testing Cintiq and your input tool(s).
If more than one Cintiq unit is connected to your system, be sure to select the unit for which you are
testing in the T
ABLET
I
NFO
column.
Note:
When testing your tool buttons, if a button is set to P

function will occur when the button is pressed. In this case you may want to change that button’s
function before testing.
Testing the ExpressKeys
