NOTE: Some digitizing applications (typically, non-Windows CAD applications where the
tablet is used solely as a digitizer with no mouse functions) may not require the use of
TabletWorks software. To configure DrawingBoard VI for use with a third-party application,
please refer to the installation instructions in the DrawingBoard VI User’s Guide, or the
DrawingBoard VI Help file.

NOTE: If your digitizing tablet came with a TabletWorks CD, install the software FIRST, and
then setup the hardware connections for USB (or the optional serial), following the
instructions below.

Software Configuration

Software drivers provide the communication bridge between your software application and
DrawingBoard VI. The GTCO CalComp by Turning Technologies-supplied TabletWorks CD
supports reduced functionality Wintab and TabCon-compatible applications. If you are not
sure about your application’s driver requirements, please contact your application vendor.
