TESTING CONTROLS AND INPUT TOOLS

If the Grip Pen, or the Cintiq ExpressKeys or Touch Strips do not work as you expect, it is a good idea to
first check the assigned functions or reset them to their default conditions. A quick way to reset a pen to
its default settings is to remove it from the T

OOL

list by clicking on the list’s [ – ] button. After the pen has

been removed, place it back onto the display screen surface and the pen will be re-added to the T

OOL

list with its default settings.

Open the Wacom Tablet control panel and click on the A

BOUT

button. In the dialog box that appears,

click on the D

IAGNOSE

... button to open the D

IAGNOSTICS

dialog box. The D

IAGNOSTICS

dialog box

displays dynamic information about the Cintiq pen display tablet and pen. This information is used
when testing Cintiq and your input tool.

If more than one Cintiq unit is connected to your system, be sure to select the unit for which you are
testing in the T

ABLET

I

NFO

column.

Note: When testing your tool buttons, if a button is set to P

when the button is pressed. In this case you may want to change that button’s function before testing.
