INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

The Wacom

Cintiq

DTZ-2000 pen display combines the beneﬁts of an LCD monitor with the control,

comfort, and productivity of Wacom’s cordless, battery-free pen technology. This gives you a direct

pen-on-screen interface that can be used with a Personal Computer (PC) or Macintosh

computer.

Cintiq’s basic components include a Wacom pen tablet internally mounted behind a 20.1" wide format

TFT color LCD monitor, and Wacom’s Grip Pen.

Cintiq comes with a modular display stand, which allows you to easily rotate the pen display to any

orientation, and to adjust the incline of the working surface to any angle between 10 and 65 degrees.

Refer to

Unpacking your Cintiq

on page 7 before setting up the Cintiq stand or unpacking the Cintiq pen

display.

Please follow all instructions carefully.

This manual describes how to install the Cintiq hardware and software. It also describes how to use

Cintiq, the Grip Pen, and the modular display stand. The information is common to Windows and

Macintosh computers, and Windows screen captures are shown unless otherwise noted.

Note that the computer treats the Cintiq pen display as two separate devices (the LCD monitor

and the pen tablet).

Therefore, the installation process is completed in two stages:

• First install the Cintiq as a display.

• Then install the Cintiq as a pen tablet.

Both stages require hardware and software installations and adjustments.

Please follow all

instructions carefully.

IMPORTANT:

You MUST install the Wacom pen tablet driver software for full pen and tablet

functionality, otherwise the Cintiq pen will only function as a mouse device and the extended

pen and tablet features will not be available.

The following kinds of information are not included with this product: information about your speciﬁc

computer hardware or operating system, or information about your application software. Your best

source for this information is the set of manuals and disks that came with your hardware, operating

system, or application.

For information on using the Wacom Tablet control panel to customize your pen display tablet and pen

settings, refer to

Customizing

on page 32 and to the electronic Software User’s Manual. See also

Learning more about Cintiq

on page 35.

To use the pressure-sensitivity of the Grip Pen with your favorite drawing application, refer to

instructions in that application’s manuals.

Precautions on use and handling

Page 3

Handling

ARNING

High Voltage. Do not open or disassemble the Cintiq pen display. There is a risk of

electrical shock when the casing is open.

This will also void your warranty and Wacom

shall have no responsibility to repair or replace the product.

ARNING

Do not operate the display stand incline adjustment levers when Cintiq is not mounted

on the stand, and do not lift the stand by the adjustment levers;

the stand is spring-

loaded and may cause injury or damage if released without the weight of Cintiq on the stand.

Improper operation may lead to physical injury or damage to the stand.

ARNING

When moving Cintiq to a different location, either remove the display unit from the

stand (see page 12 for details) and then move both items separately, use the lock

screws to ﬁx Cintiq to the stand (see page 56 for details), or hold onto both Cintiq and

the stand to make sure that the stand does not separate from the display unit when

moving them together.

Before moving Cintiq, ﬁrst adjust the stand to its full upright position; this will reduce the

spring tension so that the stand will not accidentally release and snap shut. If the display unit

is in landscape orientation, use one hand to grasp the bottom of the display and with your

other hand grasp the back of the stand. Be sure to lift on both the display and the stand so

that the stand will not separate from the display when moving Cintiq.

If Cintiq is in portrait orientation or has been locked to the stand with the rotation lock screws

(see page 56), the stand will not separate from the display unit and Cintiq can be safely lifted

by grasping the display unit with both hands.

Always follow the instructions on page 12 to remove the display unit from the stand.

ARNING

If the LCD screen has been damaged, DO NOT touch any liquid that may be leaking

from it;

this liquid is an irritant. In case of contact with skin, eyes, or mouth, rinse

immediately with running water for at least 15 minutes or more. If contact is made with the

eyes or mouth, also consult a physician.

ARNING

– LAMP(S) INSIDE THIS PRODUCT CONTAIN MERCURY AND MUST BE

RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF ACCORDING TO LOCAL, STATE OR FEDERAL

LAWS.

The Cintiq pen display has a backlight which contains mercury (Hg).

Be sure to dispose of properly, and to manage any disposal of this unit in accordance with

your local ordinances and laws.

ARNING

Do not disassemble the Cintiq stand.

Improper disassembly could result in physical injury

or damage to the stand. In this case, Wacom shall have no responsibility to repair or replace

the product.

ARNING

Prevent children from swallowing the pen tip or side switch.

The pen tip or side switch

may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them.

AUTION

Do not disassemble the Grip Pen.

This may cause the device to malfunction. In this case,

Wacom shall have no responsibility to repair or replace the product.

AUTION

Do not scratch the display screen.

Avoid placing sharp objects on the display screen

surface.

AUTION

Avoid intensive shock or vibration to Cintiq, the Cintiq stand, or the Grip Pen.

Hitting or

dropping Cintiq may damage the display screen or other components.

Adjusting the display incline

To adjust the display incline, face the front of the Cintiq pen display and grasp it on the left and right side

at approximately the same height as the Cintiq stand adjustment levers. Use your ﬁngertips to gently

pull the incline adjustment levers toward the display unit; this will release the stand’s clutch mechanism.

Tilt the display to adjust the incline setting.

• To lower Cintiq, pull the left incline adjustment lever toward Cintiq and gently lower Cintiq to the

desired incline angle. Release the lever to lock the stand in place.

• To raise Cintiq, pull the right incline adjustment lever toward Cintiq and gently raise Cintiq to the

desired incline angle. Release the lever to lock the stand in place.

Note:

The stand adjustment levers exhibit some natural play before the clutch mechanism

engages. When adjusting the stand incline, set it slightly higher than you plan to work with, then

lower the display to the desired position.

– B –

WARNING When operating the incline adjustment

levers, Cintiq must be mounted on the

stand with the stand feet resting on a

stable, ﬂat surface. The stand is

spring-loaded and can snap back

quickly, causing injury or damage if

not operated properly.

After the display unit has been mounted on the

stand, remove the foam blocks that lock the

adjustment levers in place. Save these blocks

with the other packaging materials; you will

need them if in the future you want to ship

Cintiq.

WARNING Before moving Cintiq, ﬁrst adjust the stand to its full upright position; this will reduce the spring

tension so that the stand will not accidentally release and snap shut. If the display unit is in

landscape orientation, use one hand to grasp the bottom of the display and with your other

hand grasp the back of the stand. Be sure to lift on both the display and the stand so that the

stand will not separate from the display when moving Cintiq. If Cintiq is in portrait orientation or

has been locked to the stand with the rotation lock screws (see page 56), the stand will not

separate from the display unit and Cintiq can be safely lifted by grasping the display unit with

both hands.

Unpacking your Cintiq

Page 11

Adjusting rotation

The pen display can be rotated on the display stand when the incline is less than or equal to 25

degrees.

To adjust rotation, grasp Cintiq by the main body and rotate the unit to the desired position; it will move

on the bearing hub. You can only rotate the display unit 180 degrees in either direction. If you do not

plan to rotate the Cintiq, use the rotation lock screws to fasten the display to the stand in a horizontal

position. See

Optional display conﬁgurations

on page 56 for more information.

Using the pen holder

The integrated pen holder is located at the back of the pen display tablet.

Note: The pen holder is not available for use when routing the cable to exit through the top cable

opening.

Next step: Go to page 13 and familiarize yourself with the pen display.

Removing Cintiq from the display stand

To remove Cintiq from the display stand:

• If the rotation lock screws are attached, remove them from the back of Cintiq.

• Position the pen display to landscape orientation before removing it from the display stand.

The stand will not release unless Cintiq is in landscape orientation.

• Next, raise the stand incline to the highest position. See Adjusting the display incline on page 10

for instructions.

• Firmly grasp the pen display on both the left and right sides of the body, and lift the unit out of the

display stand.

Important: When removing Cintiq from the display stand, always lift Cintiq in a direction

parallel to the front of the stand. You may also need to rotate Cintiq slightly so the stand will

release.

Note: When packing Cintiq for transport, ﬁrst adjust the stand to its lowest position and place the

foam packing blocks under the incline adjustment levers before removing Cintiq from the stand.

The foam blocks will keep the stand from snapping shut while in its packaging. Always pack Cintiq

and its stand in their original containers and protective cushions. Never pack Cintiq while it is

mounted on the stand; this may damage the unit or stand during transportation.

To use Cintiq with another display, you will need two video cards or a video card with dual output.

Depending on the capabilities of your video card and operating system, you may be able to set up

Cintiq as a mirrored, extended, or independent display. Refer to your video card documentation for

more information on its capabilities.

When you are working with more than one monitor, Cintiq will map to the monitors based upon how

your system is conﬁgured. By default, if you are in mirror mode, the pen tablet will map to the entire

space on each display or monitor. Please refer to your hardware and operating system

documentation for details on conﬁguring your computer and operating system for use with multiple

monitors.

A display toggle function is available for use with multiple monitor systems. This enables you to

toggle the screen cursor between the Cintiq pen display and your other displays. See Using the

ExpressKeys on page 26 for more information.

By using the VGA to DVI-I adapter, you can connect Cintiq to a VGA video card. However, connecting

Cintiq to a DVI video card generally results in optimum performance because a digital video signal will

display a better image and sharper text.

There are two primary steps to the installation process:

• Step 1: LCD monitor installation

• Step 2: Pen tablet installation

Be sure to follow ALL installation instructions carefully.

Step 1: LCD monitor installation

In the ﬁrst stage of the installation process, Cintiq is installed as a monitor on your system. As you work

through the ﬁrst stage of the installation process, please refer to the LCD monitor cabling diagram on

page 18 when making cable connections.

Important: Do not connect the USB data cable until instructed to do so.

• Turn off your computer.

Caution: Never connect or disconnect the video or power cables while your computer or Cintiq are

powered on – this can damage the LCD monitor or video card.

• If your computer has only one video connector, you will need to unplug your previous monitor.

Determine if your computer has a digital (DVI-I or DVI-D) or analog (VGA) connector, and set the

DIGITAL/ANALOG (DVI/VGA) switch located on the back of Cintiq for the video connection you are

using. Move the switch toward the tablet edge for Digital (DVI-I or DVI-D), and move it toward the

OSD buttons for ANALOG (VGA). See – A – in the connection diagram on page 18.

• Follow the instructions below for your video connector. See – B – in the diagram on page 18.

If you are connecting to a DVI-I connector, plug the Cintiq video cable

into the DVI-I connector of your video card.

If you are connecting to a DVI-D connector, plug the Cintiq video cable

into the DVI-D to DVI-I adapter supplied with Cintiq, and then plug the

adapter into the DVI-D connector on your video card.

If you are connecting to a VGA connector, plug the Cintiq video cable

Notes:

Each Cintiq LCD panel is produced under very stringent quality standards. Production techniques

cannot guarantee an absolutely perfect TFT display, and some panels may exhibit a certain number

of pixels that show an incorrect color. Refer to the speciﬁcations on page 62 for more information.

If an image has ﬁne striping (such as screen stripes), it may appear to ﬂicker or display a moiré

pattern.

Do not apply excessive pressure on the display surface, it may cause the appearance of a moiré or

pooling pattern. If you notice this action, use less pressure on the display screen when working

with the pen.

When a still image is displayed for a long period of time, an after-image may remain for a short time.

To prevent this, Wacom recommends using a screen saver or other power management feature.

Important: To extend the life of the backlight, set your computer’s power management to turn

off the display when it is not in use for an extended period of time.

• Reactivate your virus protection program.

• After the software installation has been completed, make sure you can use your pen on the Cintiq

display to move the screen cursor.

When you place the pen tip on the display screen, the screen cursor should immediately jump to a

corresponding position approximately beneath the pen tip. Lift the pen tip and place it on the

display screen surface in a different location – the screen cursor should again jump to the new

position. This is known as absolute positioning, and enables you to position the screen cursor

without having to drag your pen across the display screen surface. To ﬁne-tune the cursor-to-pen

relationship, see Calibrating Cintiq on page 34.

Be sure to check the Read Me ﬁle for late-breaking news. If you have trouble installing Cintiq, see the

Troubleshooting section beginning on page 41 of this manual.

Notes:

• For Windows Vista, driver installation automatically activates the new pen input functions

available within Windows Vista and Ofﬁce 2007.

• For Windows Vista and XP, user-speciﬁc preferences are supported. After logging in, each

user can customize their personal settings in the Wacom Tablet control panel. Switching to

another user will automatically load the settings for that user.

• The Windows Vista log-in screen does not support screen cursor movement with the pen tablet.

Use the arrow keys or a standard mouse to select the user name for logging in.

Next steps:

Be sure to adjust the pen display tablet calibration to precisely align the screen cursor position with

the location of the pen tip. See Calibrating Cintiq on page 34.

WORKING WITH YOUR CINTIQ

Using the pen

As you work with Cintiq, you can rest your hand lightly on the display screen, just as if it were a drawing

board or sheet of paper. The Grip Pen is cordless, battery-free, and sensitive to the tilt and pressure

you exert upon it. Hold the Grip Pen as you would a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the DuoSwitch is

in a convenient location where you can toggle it with your thumb or foreﬁnger, but not accidentally press

it while drawing. You can tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable for drawing.

Pen components

The components of your Cintiq Grip Pen function in the following manner:

Pen tip: The pen becomes activated as soon as it is brought within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the pen display

screen. This allows you to position the screen cursor or use the DuoSwitch without touching the pen tip

to the display screen. When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen

simulates a primary mouse button click. The tip click pressure can be adjusted in the Wacom Tablet

control panel. By default, the tip function is set to CLICK.

DuoSwitch: The DuoSwitch is programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and double-

click functions as the tip switch. Toggle the DuoSwitch in either direction to activate the upper or lower

button functions. You can use the DuoSwitch whenever the pen tip is within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the

tablet surface; you do not need to touch the pen tip to the tablet in order to use the switch. By default,

the upper switch is set to DOUBLE CLICK and the lower switch is set to RIGHT CLICK.

Eraser: When the eraser is brought within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the display the tablet reports the pen

location. Pressure information is reported as you press down on the eraser. By default, the eraser

function is set to ERASE.

Important: Only use a pen that is compatible with Cintiq, such as the pen that shipped with the

unit, or any of the pens from the Intuos3 product line (see Accessories on page 64).

Other pens may not function properly. Also, the Cintiq pen tip is speciﬁcally designed for use

with the Cintiq pen display – the tips on other pens could damage the protective coating on the

Cintiq display screen.

Refer to Customizing on page 32 and to the electronic Software User’s Manual for information on

customizing the pen settings.

Pen operations

The basic methods of working with the pen are as follows:

Pointing and selecting: Move the Grip Pen above the Cintiq display screen to position the screen

cursor. The pen tip needs to be within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the pen display tablet surface; you do not

need to touch the tablet surface to move the screen cursor. The cursor jumps to the location where you

place the pen (absolute positioning). Press the pen tip on the display screen to make a selection.

Note: You will need to calibrate the pen display tablet to correctly align the screen cursor with

the pen tip. (See Calibrating Cintiq on page 34.) If the screen cursor does not jump to a

position close to the pen tip when you place the pen on the display screen, then the pen tablet

driver may not be installed or is not loading. Install the pen tablet driver software if necessary.

Otherwise, refer to Troubleshooting, beginning on page 41.

Clicking: Tap the display screen once with the pen tip, or touch the pen to the display screen with

enough pressure to register a click.

Windows tip: You can make navigating with the pen easier by conﬁguring Windows to select

when the pen is over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on this feature

ﬁrst open a folder.

For Windows Vista, from the ORGANIZE pull-down menu choose FOLDER AND SEARCH

OPTIONS.... From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).

For other Windows versions, from the TOOLS pull-down menu choose FOLDER OPTIONS....

From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).

Double-clicking: Press the upper side switch, or quickly tap the display screen twice in the same place

with the pen tip. Double-clicking is easier when the pen is perpendicular to the tablet screen. Refer to

the electronic Software User’s Manual for information on ﬁne-tuning the double-click area.

Dragging: Select an object, then slide the pen tip across the display screen to move the object.

Using the side switch: The pen is equipped with a DuoSwitch. This switch has two programmable

functions that can be selected by rocking the switch in either direction. You can use the DuoSwitch

whenever the pen tip is within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the tablet surface; you do not need to touch the pen tip

to the tablet in order to use the switch. The upper switch is set to DOUBLE CLICK, and the lower switch is

set to RIGHT CLICK by default.

Drawing with pressure-sensitivity: The pen responds to the nuance and inﬂection of your hand

movements, enabling you to create natural-looking pen and brush strokes within applications that

support this feature. To draw with pressure, select a pressure-sensitive tool from your application’s tool

palette. As you draw on the screen surface, use various amounts of downward pressure on the tip of

the pen. Press lightly for thin lines or softer color. Press harder for thick lines or dense color.

Drawing with tilt: As with pressure-sensitivity, the pen display tablet recognizes when you tilt the pen

from vertical to incline positions. In supporting applications, tilt can be used to control line shape and

thickness.

Erasing: In supporting applications, the pen’s eraser works like the eraser on a pencil. In text

applications, use the eraser to select text, then lift the eraser from the tablet to delete the text.

Note that an ExpressKey set for TOUCH STRIP MODIFIER can only change the function of the Touch

Strip located on the corresponding side of your Cintiq pen display.

DTZ-2000_Manual.fm Page 25 Wednesday, December 27, 2006 9:37 AM

Working with your Cintiq

Page 26

Using the ExpressKeys

Press the ExpressKeys with your secondary hand to toggle between tools or change tool properties

while using your primary hand to work with your pen on the display tablet surface.

All ExpressKeys can be customized. The default settings were chosen to optimize your workﬂow in

Photoshop and other graphics applications using the following modiﬁer functions:

Button 1: CTRL modiﬁer key for Windows. COMMAND (Apple key) for Macintosh.

Button 2: SHIFT modiﬁer key.

Button 3: ALT modiﬁer key for Windows. OPTION modiﬁer key for Macintosh.

Button 4: SPACE key (spacebar).

Button 5: DISPLAY TOGGLE. This option is available for use only on multiple monitor systems.

Button 6: Left and right outer TOUCH STRIP MODIFIER. Enables you to change Touch Strip functionality.

Button 7: Left and right inner TOUCH STRIP MODIFIER. Enables you to change Touch Strip functionality.

The ExpressKeys are chordable. For example, pressing keys 1 and 3 together simulates CTRL+ALT in Windows,

or COMMAND+OPTION on Macintosh systems.

By default, the outer ExpressKeys will modify the Touch Strip to adjust the

maximum tool size setting in Photoshop. Application-speciﬁc settings can

be added to customize the keys for working with other applications.

The ExpressKeys enable you to speed up many common tasks. You can work with the default settings,

or choose from any of the other available functions. For example:

• Quickly change the functionality of a Touch Strip by ﬁrst pressing a corresponding ExpressKey that

has been customized for the TOUCH STRIP MODIFIER function and then using the Touch Strip.

• On multiple monitor systems only, set an ExpressKey or a pen side switch to DISPLAY TOGGLE.

You can then press that button to toggle the screen cursor between the Cintiq pen display tablet

and your other displays. For example, Cintiq can be used as a pen display where the screen cursor

is positioned at the pen tip location, or toggled for use as a standard Wacom tablet where the

screen cursor can be moved across the entire desktop or additional displays.

• In Photoshop, pressing the spacebar (key 4 on your pen display tablet) switches the currently

selected tool to the hand tool and lets you pan (move) the image within the application window.

• In Photoshop and many other graphics applications, the ALT, CTRL, and SHIFT modiﬁer keys modify

a tool or switch to a complementary tool while the modiﬁer key is pressed.

Tips:

• Set a pair of keys to commonly used keystrokes, such as [ and ] to decrease and increase your

brush size in Photoshop.

• Set a key to a commonly used keyboard shortcut in order to open ﬁles or start an application.

• If you prefer not to (or cannot) use the side switches on your Grip Pen, then set a key to right- or

double-click.

See the electronic Software User’s Manual for more details on the available key settings.

Setting up your work area

The Cintiq DTZ-2000 pen display and stand were designed to provide you with the widest possible range

of ﬂexibility and ergonomic work approach. The design allows you to quickly adjust Cintiq to a different

position whenever the need arises. You may want to experiment with different height adjustments to

determine which best ﬁts your particular working style and tasks.

As you work with Cintiq, you can rest your hand lightly on the display screen, just as if it were a drawing

board or sheet of paper.

To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position Cintiq, the Grip

Pen, and your keyboard so they are easily accessible without unnecessary reaching. The pen display

tablet and any other monitors should be positioned so you can view them comfortably with a minimum

of eyestrain.

Here are some other points to keep in mind:

• Take short breaks between tasks to stretch and relax your muscles.

• Use a gentle grip when working with the pen.

• Alternate tasks throughout the day.

• Minimize awkward postures and repetitive movements that cause discomfort.

• Alternate between different modes of use.

Note: Wacom makes no representation, promise or guarantee that Wacom products will cure or prevent,

in whole or in part, mouse-induced repetitive stress symptoms, injuries or conditions. Individual results

may vary. Always obtain competent medical advice to determine the most appropriate treatment for your

speciﬁc situation.

By adjusting the Cintiq stand to its lowest

position, the pen display unit can be freely

rotated on the display stand without touching

the desktop. In this position, Cintiq emulates

a traditional animator’s table and gives you

the freedom to rotate the display unit to any

angle for the greatest comfort and accuracy

of stroke while drawing or editing images.

Adjusting the Cintiq stand to its highest

position is common when your work requires a

large amount of keyboard input. This position

is also useful when presenting your work to

co-workers or clients.

DTZ-2000_Manual.fm Page 30 Wednesday, December 27, 2006 9:37 AM

Working with your Cintiq

Page 31

Hints:

• If the rotation lock screws are attached to the back of Cintiq, they must be removed before

Cintiq can be rotated.

• Before rotating the display unit, be sure the cable is freely rotating behind the unit.

• Because the Cintiq drawing surface will be a little higher than your desk, consider adjusting the

height of your desk or chair to assure comfortable use of the device.

• Maintain a good posture at all times, and change your position if you feel any discomfort due to

your work position.

• Do not pull the cable out of its computer connections by accidentally moving the pen display

tablet too far from the computer.

• An optional pen tether can be used to ensure your pen stays with your pen display tablet.

Note: Cintiq can also be mounted to articulated arms or other third-party stands meeting the VESA

100 speciﬁcation for monitor stands. See Using an alternate mount or stand on page 57 for details.

Calibrating Cintiq

You will need to calibrate the pen display tablet in order to align the screen cursor position with the

position of the pen on the display screen. This is required to adjust for parallax caused by the display

screen cover glass and coating. Set Cintiq in its working position, then follow the procedure below.

Important: When using a VGA connection

with Cintiq, make sure the LCD monitor is

properly adjusted before calibrating the tablet.

See Adjusting pitch and phase (VGA only) on

page 39, and Adjusting the LCD monitor

beginning on page 36.

• In the Wacom Tablet control panel, select the

Grip Pen from the TOOL list and then select the

CALIBRATE tab.

• If you are working with multiple monitors,

select the MONITOR option corresponding to

the Cintiq display. (Only monitors that are set

to one of the resolutions supported by Cintiq

will appear in the list.)

• Click on the CALIBRATE... button to activate the

calibration screen.

• Hold the pen and position your head as you

normally do when working with the tablet.

Use the pen tip to click on the center of the

crosshairs in the upper-left corner.

• Then click on the center of the crosshairs that

are displayed in the lower-right corner.

• Test the alignment by positioning the pen at a

few different points on the display. Click OK to

accept the calibration. Click TRY AGAIN to

recalibrate.

Be sure to read the directions in the calibration

screen for detailed instructions and additional

options. The calibration setting applies to all

applications.

Note: If more than one pen display tablet is

installed on your system, be sure to select the

Cintiq unit you are working with from the

control panel’s TABLET list.

Crosshairs

Adjustment pattern for pitch and phase.

See Adjusting pitch and phase (VGA only)

on page 39 for details.

Tip: If you prefer to see the screen cursor slightly offset from the actual position of the pen tip, calibrate by

clicking on a spot showing that offset from the crosshairs. For example, to have the screen cursor appear

1/10th of an inch above and to the left of the pen tip, calibrate by clicking on a spot 1/10th of an inch below

and to the right of the crosshairs.

Adjusting the LCD monitor

Factory presets, auto-sync, and user settings

Factory presets: For optimal display quality, set your video card to Cintiq’s native resolution of

1680 x 1050 pixels (WSXGA). See page 62 for signal speciﬁcations.

Auto-sync: When connected as a VGA display, Cintiq attempts to automatically synchronize to the

incoming signal. At the native resolution of 1680 x 1050, the vertical refresh frequency must be set to

60 Hz. For other resolutions, auto-sync will function when the horizontal frequency is between 30 to

82 kHz and the vertical frequency is between 50 to 75 Hz. If a speciﬁc resolution and vertical refresh

frequency are not supported, you will see an “out of scan range” message. In this case choose a

different resolution or refresh frequency. The auto-sync function automatically sets the horizontal and

vertical screen position, as well as pitch and phase.

If Cintiq does not automatically synchronize with the incoming signal, you can open the OSD

menu, go to the RESET menu, and select the AUTO ADJUST option to initiate display synchronization.

Additional screen display adjustments can be manually made using the OSD controls.

User settings: When you manually adjust the display using the OSD function, the settings are stored

within Cintiq for use the next time the unit receives a similar signal. This is applicable to all display

modes.

Working with on screen display settings

Cintiq is equipped with an On Screen Display (OSD) function. The OSD function enables you to adjust

and optimize a variety of display settings at the touch of a button. The OSD controls are located on the

back of the unit. Simply reach over the top of the display unit to locate the buttons with your ﬁngers.

Note: Braille-style dots above the buttons help you to identify each one by touch.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most of the time your pen display tablet will work ﬂawlessly. But if you are having trouble, Wacom

recommends you do the following:

1. If Cintiq does not function properly, refer to the troubleshooting section below. See also Display

troubleshooting on page 45, or look in the Pen tablet troubleshooting on page 47. Your problem

may be described there and you can try the solution offered.

2. Open the Wacom pen display Read Me ﬁle for late-breaking information.

3. If you are having a compatibility conﬂict between Cintiq and a new hardware or software product,

check if a newer pen tablet software driver is available. See Obtaining driver downloads on

page 53 for information on downloading an updated software driver. Wacom periodically updates

the software driver to maintain compatibility with new products.

4. Check the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) on the Wacom web site for your region.

5. If you have tried the suggestions in this manual and still cannot resolve the problem, then contact

Wacom for Technical Support. See the Read Me ﬁle for information on where to obtain support for

your region.

Testing Cintiq

1. If the Cintiq power LED does not light, check the following:

• First verify that the green light on the power adapter is on. If the light is not on, check that the

power cable is properly connected to the power adapter and to an active AC outlet.

• Check that the power adapter cable is securely connected to the Cintiq power cable and that

the Cintiq power switch is turned on. The Cintiq power LED will glow orange or blue whenever

Cintiq is on.

Important: Use only the AC adapter that came with your pen display. Other adapters may

cause damage to your product.

2. If there is no display:

• Make sure that your computer is turned on. The power LED will light blue when the proper

video signal is received, and orange if there is no video signal or if the computer is in a power

saving mode.

• Verify that Cintiq is connected to an active DVI-I, DVI-D, or VGA connector and that the

DVI/VGA switch on the back of Cintiq is set to the correct video setting.

• Check that your video card has been properly installed and is functional. If you have another

display that is compatible with your video card, you can connect that display to the card in order

to verify that the video card is operating correctly.

Troubleshooting

Page 42

3. Verify that the tablet and Grip Pen are working:

• Press the Grip Pen tip against the display and verify that the status LED lights blue.

• If the LED does not light, verify that Cintiq’s USB cable is plugged into an active USB port.

If Cintiq is plugged into a USB hub, try plugging Cintiq directly into the USB port on your

computer.

• Be sure that the USB port to which you are connecting Cintiq has not been disabled. It may be

necessary to check your system BIOS setting to verify that you have connected Cintiq to an

active USB port.

• The status LED will light blue when Cintiq is registered as a USB device and the pen tip is

pressed against the display.

4. Check the pen. If you cannot make a selection on the display screen with the pen:

• Test the pen by pressing the pen tip or the eraser against the surface of the pen display tablet.

The status LED should light blue.

• Now, without applying pressure to the pen tip but keeping the pen within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the

pen display tablet surface, press the side switch. The status LED should again light blue.

• If the status LED does not light blue for these tests, be sure you are using the correct pen that

came with Cintiq.

Testing your input tools and pen display controls

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 TOOL 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 TOOL

list with its default settings.

Open the Wacom Tablet control panel and click on the ABOUT button. In the dialog box that appears,

click on the DIAGNOSE... button to open the DIAGNOSTICS dialog box. The DIAGNOSTICS dialog box

displays dynamic information about the Cintiq pen display tablet and pen. This information is used

when testing Cintiq and your input tool(s).

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

testing in the TABLET INFO column.

Note: When testing your tool buttons, if a button is set to POP-UP MENU or OPEN/RUN..., that

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

function before testing.

Testing the ExpressKeys

1. With the DIAGNOSTICS dialog box open, observe the TABLET INFO column as you test the

ExpressKeys. If you have more than one Cintiq unit connected to your system, be sure to select

the unit you are testing from the TABLET INFO column.

2. Test the ExpressKeys by pressing them one at a time. Each time you press a key, its number will

be displayed next to either the LEFT KEYS or RIGHT KEYS category, depending on which keys group

you are testing.

When you are done, click the CLOSE button to exit the dialog box.

Testing the Touch Strips

1. With the DIAGNOSTICS dialog box open, observe the TABLET INFO column as you test each Touch

Strip. If you have more than one Cintiq unit connected to your system, be sure to select the unit you

are testing from the TABLET INFO column.

2. Slide your ﬁnger up or down along the entire length of the Touch Strip you want to test. As you

touch and move your ﬁnger along the Touch Strip, a number will indicate the current ﬁnger position

for the respective Touch Strip next to LEFT TOUCH STRIP or RIGHT TOUCH STRIP.

When you are done, click the CLOSE button to exit the dialog box.

Testing a pen

1. While observing the POINTING DEVICE INFO column, bring your pen within 5 mm (0.2 inch) of the

display screen. A value for PROXIMITY, the DEVICE NAME, DEVICE TYPE, and a DEVICE S/N (serial

number) should be displayed. If you have more than one Cintiq unit connected to your system, be

sure to select the unit for which you are testing a pen in the TABLET INFO column.

2. Move your tool along the tablet 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 blue each time you click with the tool tip,

press the side switch, or press the tool’s eraser to the display screen.

• Press on the display 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 DuoSwitch.)

• Press the tool’s eraser to the display 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.

4. Test tilt for the x-axis by moving the pen from a vertical position toward the right; the X TILT value

should change from approximately 0 to +60. Now move the tool to the left of vertical; the X TILT

value should change from approximately 0 to -60.

5. Test the tilt for the y-axis by moving the pen from a vertical position toward the bottom of the tablet;

the Y TILT value should change from approximately 0 to +60. Now move the tool toward the top of

the tablet; the Y TILT value should change from approximately 0 to +60.

6. For the optional 6D Art Pen, test the rotation feature by placing the pen tip on the display screen

surface and slowing rotating the pen on its axis. The ROTATION value should change as you rotate

the pen.

7. When you are done, click on the CLOSE button to exit the dialog box.

Pen Tip = 1, DuoSwitch (lower position) = 2,

If you have customized the side switch on your pen to toggle between

PEN mode and MOUSE mode, make sure that your pen display tablet

is operating in PEN mode.

When using Cintiq on a

multiple monitor system,

you cannot use the pen to

control the other monitor(s).

To toggle the screen cursor between Cintiq and the other monitors

connected to your system, press one of the ExpressKeys that has

been set for the DISPLAY TOGGLE function. See the electronic

Software User’s Manual for details on working with DISPLAY TOGGLE.

You can also use your pen to control the other monitors in MOUSE

mode. To use MOUSE mode, ﬁrst set the pen’s DuoSwitch to MODE

TOGGLE.... Then use the switch to toggle between PEN mode and

MOUSE mode.

The line you are drawing

does not line up with the

location of the screen

cursor in paint applications.

To function properly, some applications require that the pen is set to

PEN mode. Make sure the pen has not been toggled to MOUSE mode.

If the pen is set to PEN mode and the problem still exists, then you

may have a corrupted preferences ﬁle. Follow the instructions in the

next tip to create a new preferences ﬁle.

Caring for Cintiq

Keep the Grip Pen and your Cintiq LCD screen surface clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to the

pen and cause wear to the display screen surface. Regular cleaning will help to prolong the life of your

LCD screen surface and pen. Keep Cintiq, the Cintiq stand, and the Grip Pen in a clean, dry place and

avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is best. Cintiq, the Cintiq stand, and the Grip Pen

are not made to come apart. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.

Important: Take care to never spill liquids onto the pen display tablet or pen. Be especially

careful of getting the display, tablet ExpressKeys, Touch Strips, or pen buttons, tip, and eraser

wet – they contain sensitive electronic parts that will fail if liquids enter them.

Cleaning

To clean the Cintiq casing, the Cintiq display stand, or the Grip Pen, use a soft, damp cloth; you can

also dampen the cloth using a very mild soap diluted with water. Do not use paint thinner, benzine,

alcohol, or other solvents to clean the unit casing or pen.

To clean the display screen, use an anti-static cloth or a slightly damp cloth. When cleaning, apply only

a light amount of pressure to the display screen and do not make the surface wet. Do not use detergent

to clean the display screen; this may damage the coating on the screen. Please note that damage of

this kind is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

DTZ-2000_Manual.fm Page 54 Wednesday, December 27, 2006 9:37 AM

Appendix

Page 55

Replacing the pen tip

The pen tip (nib) will wear with normal use. Excessive pressure will cause the nib to wear sooner.

When the nib gets too short or develops a sharp edge, replace it with one of the extra nibs that came

with the pen.

If the pen nib wears and becomes angular, it may damage the coating on the Cintiq display screen.

To avoid this, periodic nib replacement is recommended.

Important: When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen stand, the pen holder, or lay it ﬂat on

your desk. To maintain the sensitivity of your pen, do not store the tool in a container where it

will rest on its tip or eraser.

WARNING Prevent children from swallowing the pen tip or side switch. The pen tip (nib)

or side switch may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them.

To remove the old nib:

Clasp it with a Wacom nib extractor, pair of

tweezers, needle-nosed plier, or similar

instrument and pull the old nib straight out of

the pen.

To insert a new nib:

Slide it straight into the barrel of the pen.

Firmly push the nib until it stops. The new nib

will slide into the correct position.

Optional display conﬁgurations

After mounting the pen display unit on the Cintiq stand, you can rotate the pen display tablet to a variety

of positions. If you do not plan to rotate the Cintiq and want to fasten it more securely to the stand, you

can install the rotation lock screws as shown below.

To lock Cintiq to the display stand:

• Rotate the pen display to the standard landscape position (with the power switch located at the top

of the unit).

• Line up the two holes in the stand with two screw holes on the Cintiq unit.

• Insert the lock screws and hand-tighten them.

CAUTION Avoid placing excess

physical pressure on the

Cintiq stand; doing so

can damage the stand.

Using an alternate mount or stand

Cintiq can be attached to any mount arm or

stand conforming to the VESA 100 standard.

Mounting screws that are 4 mm wide with a

0.7 mm pitch (M4 Regular), with a screw

clearance depth from 13 – 18 mm are required.

To attach Cintiq to a VESA 100 mounting

platform:

1. Turn off your computer and power off

Cintiq. Then disconnect all cables from

between the unit and your computer.

2. Remove Cintiq from its stand and place it

face down on a ﬂat, soft surface (such as a

cloth spread across a desktop).

3. Remove the bearing hub by unscrewing

the four bearing hub attachment screws.

Then carefully separate the bearing halves

and remove the bearing stopper to free up

the cabling. Take care not to lose the

small bearing stopper found within the

inner groove of one of the hub sections.

4. Next remove the four attachment screws from the cable cover plate and lift the plate away from the

pen display unit.

5. Place the cable into the cable exit channel. Then reattach the cable cover plate making sure to

use the correct screws for reattachment. (The cable cover plate screws are shorter than the

bearing hub attachment screws.)

6. Using the screws that came with the bearing hub recess cover plate (included with your product),

install the plate in place of the bearing hub to protect the interior of the unit from dust particles.

7. Now, using the appropriate VESA mounting screws, ﬁrmly attach Cintiq to the alternate mounting

platform.

8. Refer to the Installation instructions beginning on page 15 and reattach the cabling to your

computer.

To remove Cintiq from an alternate mounting platform:

1. Turn off your computer and power off Cintiq. Then disconnect all cables from between the unit and

your computer.

2. Remove Cintiq from the alternate mounting platform.

3. Place the pen display unit face down on a ﬂat, soft surface (such as a cloth spread across a

desktop). Remove the bearing cover plate.

4. Remove the cable cover plate and lift the cable out of the cable channel. After freeing up the cable,

replace the cable cover plate.

5. Lay out and study the bearing hub components – you should have two bearing hub sections, a

bearing stopper, and four screws. Locate the bearing stopper within one of the bearing hub

sections. (Either hub section can be used, as they are identical parts.) When correctly placed, the

bearing stopper will shift smoothly from side to side within the stopper groove. The stopper will also

sit ﬂush with the rear hub surface.

CAUTION When attaching Cintiq onto an alternate mounting platform, be

sure to follow all instructions in the documentation supplied by

the platform manufacturer. If improperly installed, the unit

could fall, resulting in damage to the unit or physical injury.

6. Taking care not to dislodge the bearing stopper from the hub section, position the two halves of the

bearing hub together around the pen display tablet cable and over their attachment points.

7. Attach the bearing hub sections to the unit making sure to use the correct screws for reattachment.

(The bearing hub screws are longer than the cable cover plate screws.)

Proper positioning shows the hub sections

aligned along the horizontal axis of the pen

You can determine whether the equipment is causing interference by powering it off. If the interference stops, it

was probably caused by the equipment.

If the equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, you may be able to correct the

interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Rotate the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment and computer into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio.

If necessary, consult your Wacom dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help.

Changes or modiﬁcations to this product not authorized by Wacom could void the FCC Certiﬁcation and negate

your authority to operate the product.
