The DrawingBoard V
12
Tablet Power-On
The DrawingBoard V power switch is located at the rear of the tablet on
the Controller Connector Panel. When turned On, the DrawingBoard V’s
Indicator light will begin blinking.
If you are using a cordless transducer, turn it on by pressing any button
on the tool. The Indicator light will glow steadily if the transducer is inside
the Active Area of the tablet. If the transducer is outside the Active Area,
the Indicator light will blink.
Power is supplied through the USB port. No additional power
source is needed for a USB installation, unless you are using the
DrawingBoard V with a corded high-accuracy cursor. For that
configuration only, connect the power supply.
Installation
USB Connection
The DrawingBoard V USB port connection is USB 1.1 and 2.0 compat-
ible. When the digitizer is connected to the USB port, Windows will
recognize that there is a new device connected. If Windows displays the
Found New Hardware
prompt, follow the onscreen instructions to com-
plete the driver installation.
1
Connect the interface cable to the USB jack on the DrawingBoard V
Connector Panel. The connector is keyed and will fit only the correct
jack. Do not force it.
2
Connect the other end of the USB cable to any one of the USB ports
on your computer or USB hub. Turn the Power Switch on. The
digitizer will beep once, indicating it has power.
