Working with your DTF-720
Page 17
USING THE PEN
The Wacom pen is cordless, battery-free, and senses the amount of pressure you apply to the tip.
Hold the pen like you would a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the programmable DuoSwitch is in a
convenient location where you can toggle it with your thumb or forefinger, but not accidentally press it
while writing or drawing. As you work, you can rest your hand lightly on the DTF-720 display screen,
just as if it were a drawing board or sheet of paper. You can tilt the pen in any way that feels most
comfortable for drawing.
PEN COMPONENTS
The components of your pen function in the following manner:
Pen tip:
The pen is activated as soon as it is brought within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the pen display screen.
This allows you to position the screen cursor without touching the pen tip to the display screen.
When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen simulates a primary
mouse button click. The tip click pressure can be adjusted in the Pen Tablet control panel.
DuoSwitch:
The DuoSwitch is programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and double-
click functions as the tip switch. Toggle the DuoSwitch in either direction to activate the upper or lower
button functions. You can use the DuoSwitch whenever the pen tip is within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the
display screen surface; you do not need to touch the pen tip to the display screen in order to use the
switch. By default, the upper switch is set to D
OUBLE
C
LICK
and the lower switch is set to R
IGHT
C
LICK
.
Important:
Use only the pen that came with your DTF-720 pen display. Other pens may not
function properly. Also, the DTF-720 pen tip is specifically designed for use with the DTF-720
pen display – the tips on other pens could damage the protective coating on the DTF-720
display screen.
See
Customizing the pen
on page 20 for information on customizing the pen settings.

Note:
When the pen is not in use, place
it in the pen storage compartment or lay
it flat on your desk. To maintain the
sensitivity of your pen, do not store the
pen in a container where it will rest on
its tip.
