INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
The Active Pane pen display combines the benefits of an LCD monitor with the control,
comfort, and productivity of 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.
The basic components of the pen display include a pen tablet internally mounted behind a
15.0" diagonal TFT color LCD monitor, and a cordless, battery-free pen.
The Active Panel also comes equipped with a VGA pass-thru (
to simultaneously connect a VGA monitor or projector to the pen display.
This guide describes how to install the Active Panel hardware and software. It also describes how
to use your pen display and pen. The information is common to both Windows and Macintosh
platforms, and Windows screen captures are shown unless otherwise noted. Please follow all
instructions carefully.
Note that the computer treats the 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 Active Panel as a display.
•
Then install the Active Panel as a pen tablet.
Both stages require hardware and software installations and adjustments. Please follow all
instructions carefully.
The following kinds of information are not included with this product: information about your specific
