2.Test the ExpressKeys, Rocker Ring positions or Home Button by pressing them one at a time. Each time you press a key, position or button, its number is shown next to either the LEFT BUTTONS or RIGHT BUTTONS category, depending on which key or position you are testing.
3.When you are done, click the CLOSE button to exit the dialog box.

TESTING A PEN
1.With the DIAGNOSTICS dialog box open, and while observing the POINTING DEVICE INFO column, bring your pen within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the screen. A value for PROXIMITY, the DEVICE NAME, DEVICE TYPE, and a DEVICE S/N (serial number) should be displayed. Be sure to select the pen display you are testing from the TABLET INFO column.
2.Move your tool along the pen screen surface. The X and Y DATA values should change to reflect the tool position.
3.Test your pen switches. The Cintiq status LED should light white each time you click with the tool tip, press the side switch, or press the tool eraser to the screen.
•Press on the screen surface with the tool tip. The SWITCHES state and PRESSURE value should change. PRESSURE should change from approximately 0% with no pressure applied to approximately 100% when full pressure is applied.
•Next, press the side switch without pressing the tip to the tablet. The SWITCHES state should change. For the Grip Pen, do this for both positions of the switch.
Pen | Tip = 1 |
SWITCHES states | Side switch (lower position) = 2 |
| Side switch (upper position) = 3 |
| Eraser = 1 |
|
|
Airbrush | Tip = 1 |
SWITCHES states | Side switch = 2 |
| Eraser = 1 |
•Press the eraser to the screen. The SWITCHES state and PRESSURE value should change. PRESSURE should change from approximately 0% with no pressure applied to approximately 100% when full pressure is applied.
•For the optional Airbrush, move the fingerwheel forward. The WHEEL value should decrease to a value of approximately 0 when the fingerwheel is all the way forward. Move the fingerwheel backward. The WHEEL value should increase to approximately 1000 when the fingerwheel is all the way back.
