WORKING WITH MULTIPLE MONITORS

When working with Cintiq and additional monitors on the same system, the screen cursor movement on the standard monitors will depend on your system configuration.

If a second monitor is connected in mirror mode, both Cintiq and the other monitor will show identical images and screen cursor movement.

If you are using Cintiq with other monitors in extended monitor mode, you have several options for navigating on the other monitors:

Note: If you are using more than one monitor, your Cintiq 13HD will always be a second monitor or display.

Set an ExpressKey, Rocker Ring or pen side switch to the DISPLAY TOGGLE function. You can then press the button to toggle the screen cursor between Cintiq and your other displays.

For example: Cintiq can be used as a pen display where the screen cursor is positioned at the pen tip location on the pen screen surface. Display Toggle enables you to use Cintiq as a standard Wacom tablet where the screen cursor can be moved across the entire desktop or additional displays.

Set a pen side switch or an ExpressKey to MODE TOGGLE. You can then quickly switch between pen mode for working on Cintiq and mouse mode for working another monitors.

You can also purchase an Intuos5 tablet and use it to work on the other monitors in PEN mode. The pen will work on both Cintiq and the tablet.

ADJUSTING THE DISPLAY

Use the Cintiq controls to adjust a variety of display settings.

FACTORY PRESETS, AUTO-SYNC, AND USER SETTINGS

Factory presets: For optimal display quality, set your video card to a resolution of 1920x1080. This is the maximum (native) resolution that can be used with Cintiq. See the IPI for details.

Auto-sync: Cintiq automatically synchronizes to the incoming signal. The auto-sync function sets the horizontal and vertical screen position, as well as pitch and phase. Auto-sync will function between the supported horizontal and vertical frequency ranges. See the IPI for details.

Cintiq does not synchronize with the incoming signal. You can use the FACTORY RESET option to initiate display synchronization, and make other screen display adjustments using the Wacom Display Settings.

Color calibration: Changing the color, color temperature, contrast, brightness, or backlight from their default settings will override the color profile used with Cintiq.

WACOM DISPLAY SETTINGS

The Wacom Display Settings allow you to optimize a variety of Cintiq settings.

To access the settings:

PC: From the Start Menu, click WACOM TABLET, then WACOM DISPLAY SETTINGS.

Mac: Open Applications Folder, then click WACOM TABLET and then WACOM DISPLAY SETTINGS.
