CALIBRATING THE DTU-1931

You must calibrate the pen display tablet in order to align the screen cursor with the position of the pen on the display screen. This is required to adjust for parallax caused by the display screen cover glass and coating. Set the DTU-1931 in its working position, then follow the procedure below.

IMPORTANT: When using a VGA connection, make sure the display is properly adjusted before calibrating the tablet. See Adjusting pitch and phase (VGA only) on page 27, and Adjusting the display beginning on page 24.

• In the Wacom Tablet control panel, select the PEN from the TOOL list and then select the CALIBRATE tab.

• If you are working with multiple monitors, select the MONITOR corresponding to the DTU-1931 display. (Only monitors that are set to one of the resolutions supported by the DTU-1931 will appear in the list.)

• Click on the CALIBRATE... button to activate the

calibration screen.
• Hold the pen and position your head as you	Crosshairs
normally do when working with the pen display.
Use the pen tip to click on the center of the
crosshairs in the upper-left corner.
• Then click on the center of the crosshairs that
are displayed in the lower-right corner.
• Test the alignment by positioning the pen at a
few different points on the display. Click OK to
accept the calibration. Click TRY AGAIN to
recalibrate.
Be sure to read the directions in the calibration
screen for detailed instructions and additional
options. The calibration setting applies to all
applications.
Note: If more than one pen display tablet is
installed on your system, be sure to select the
unit you are working with from the control panel’s		Adjustment pattern for pitch and phase.
TABLET list.		See Adjusting pitch and phase (VGA
		only) on page 27 for details.

Tip: If you prefer to see the screen cursor slightly offset from the actual position of the pen tip, calibrate by clicking on a spot showing that offset from the crosshairs. For example, to have the screen cursor appear 1/10th of an inch above and to the left of the pen tip, calibrate by clicking on a spot 1/10th of an inch below and to the right of the crosshairs.
