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 return a
pen to its default settings is to remove it from the T
OOL
list by clicking on the control panel list’s [ – ]
button. After the pen has been removed, place it back onto the display screen surface. The pen will
be added back 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. The D
IAGNOSTICS
dialog box displays to show dynamic
information about the Cintiq pen display and pen. This information is used when testing Cintiq
and your input tool.
•
If more than one Cintiq unit is connected to your system, in the T
ABLET
I
NFO
column select the unit
for which you are testing.
•
Use the information presented in the D
IAGNOSTICS
dialog box when testing your pen display and
pen.
Note: When testing your tool buttons, if a button is set to R
ADIAL
M
ENU
or O
PEN
/R
UN
..., that function
will occur when the button is pressed. In this case you may want to change the button function
before testing.
TESTING THE EXPRESSKEYS
1.
With the D

dialog box open, observe the T

ExpressKey. If more than one Cintiq unit is connected to your system, be sure you have selected
the unit you are testing from the T
ABLET
I
NFO
column.

Test the keys by clicking them one at a time. Each time you press a key, its number will be
displayed next to either the L

category, depending on which keys group
you are testing.

When you are done, click the C

Consider closing any open applications except the Wacom Tablet control panel when testing
the ExpressKeys.
