TabletWorks software. To configure DrawingBoard V for use with a third-party application,
please refer to the installation instructions in the DrawingBoard V User’s Guide, or the
DrawingBoard V 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 serial, following the instructions below.
Software Configuration
Software drivers provide the communication bridge between your software application and
DrawingBoard V. 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.
Installing the Driver
Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive on your computer and follow the onscreen prompts to
complete the driver installation. If the CD does not autorun, click the Start button on the
Windows Task Bar and select Run from the menu. Type X:\setup.exe (X represents the CD
drive letter).
