Interactive pen display
WINDOWS-SPECIFIC PROBLEMS
The computer does not go to
sleep.
When you are not using the pen, remove it from the pen display surface
or the pen display will continue to send data, keeping the computer
awake.
The screen cursor jumps back
when using your regular
mouse or trackball.
When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen storage compartment,
or at some location near the pen display – but not on the display.
Leaving your pen on the display may interfere with screen cursor
positioning when using other input devices.
The screen cursor moves
erratically or jumps around on
the display screen when
another tablet is connected to
your computer.
The tablet portion of the interactive pen display emits electromagnetic
waves at a certain frequency. If another tablet is too closely placed to
the unit it may interfere with screen cursor positioning. If this occurs,
move the tablet further away from the pen display.
You suspect the pen display
preferences may be
corrupted, or want to make
certain that all settings are at
their factory defaults.

preferences. Close any open applications. Click the
