INTERACTIVE PEN DISPLAY INSTALLATION GUIDE AND USER’S MANUAL Introduction and Overview The Wacom® Cintiq™ 18SX Interactive Pen Display combines an LCD display with a Wacom tablet. This gives you a direct point-and-draw-on-screen interface that can be used with a Personal Computer (PC), Macintosh® computer, or SGI™ or Sun® workstation. Cintiq’s basic components include a Wacom tablet internally mounted behind an 18.1” diagonal TFT color LCD display, and Wacom’s Grip Pen. Your Cintiq Interactive Pen Display offers a number of significant advantages over a standard display: n Integrated input and display n Pressure-sensitive drawing directly on the display screen n Reduced power consumption and heat generation n Requires less work space n Flicker free and easier on the eyes. Cintiq comes with a modular display stand, which allows you to easily rotate the Interactive Pen Display unit to any orientation, and to adjust the incline of the working surface to any angle between 13 and 70 degrees. You can also lock Cintiq in either a landscape or portrait orientation. If you prefer to use Cintiq on your lap, simply lift the display unit out of the stand. Please refer to Working with Cintiq on page 32 for more information. The workspace, and how you interact with it, was an important consideration in the design and development of Cintiq. Regardless of how you prefer to work with the Interactive Pen Display, you will find that Cintiq is ideally suited to a variety of diverse professional fields and applications. Cintiq is especially useful in the fields of animation, graphics design, 3D modeling, and video and film post-production. Some additional areas of use include architectural design, AV presentations, industrial design, medical imaging, textile design, and any others where direct manipulation of the screen image is useful. 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 Interactive Pen Display and the Cintiq stand are packed separately. Refer to Unpacking Cintiq on page 12 before removing Cintiq or the stand from the box. Please follow all instructions carefully. Note that the computer treats the two parts of Cintiq (the LCD display and the Wacom tablet) as separate pieces of hardware. Therefore, the installation process is completed in two stages: n First, you will install the LCD display portion of Cintiq. n In the second stage you will install Cintiq’s tablet functionality. Both stages require hardware and software installations. Please follow all instructions carefully. You can find information on using the Wacom Tablet Control Panel for customizing your tablet and pen settings in the online Help, located under the Help menu in the Wacom Tablet Control Panel. See Learning More About Cintiq on page 37. The following are not included with this product: n Information about your specific computer hardware n Information about your operating system n Information about application software. Please refer also to your computer hardware, operating system, or software application manuals. To use the pressure-sensitivity of the Grip Pen with your favorite drawing application, refer to instructions in that application’s manuals.
