This section contains important information about the battery and power management features of the Graphire Bluetooth pen tablet. Be sure to review the following items: Installing the battery Charging the battery Power saving features Power indicator light
See also working with the tablet for more information about tablet features.

Installing the battery

Your wireless pen tablet uses a rechargeable Lithium Polymer (Li-Poly) battery as the power source for mobile operation, and a power adapter for charging the battery and to operate the tablet using outlet power. Before installing or working with Graphire Bluetooth, you must rst install the rechargeable battery that came with your tablet. To install the tablet battery: 1. Turn the wireless tablet upside down and slide open the battery compartment door (see picture below). 2. Align the notch on the battery cable plug with the cutout in the tablet connector, then press the plug into the connector as shown.
Important: Use only the correct battery provided by Wacom and be careful not to drop it on hard surfaces. The battery can be damaged internally when dropped, and should be replaced even if there is no obvious damage. This will help prevent any future damage that could occur to the tablet if the battery has been dropped, is installed in the tablet, and then later develops a short or leak while in the tablet. Warnings: Do not attempt to install the battery backwards or reverse the polarity. If you do so, you may damage the tablet, cause a re, or personal injury may result. NEVER attempt to use other battery types in your tablet. Doing so may damage the tablet, cause a re, or personal injury may result. See replacing the tablet battery for additional battery cautions and warnings.
3. Insert the battery into the battery compartment and close the compartment door. Move on to charging the battery.

Charging the battery

Before using the tablet battery for the rst time, Wacom recommends that you plug in the power adapter and allow the battery to charge. You can continue with the installation process and you can work with the tablet while the battery is being charged. The battery will take approximately ve to six (5 to 6) hours to fully charge. Note that fully charging or discharging the battery does not extend the battery life as Li-Poly batteries do not have a memory.

Hints: Use a soft TIP FEEL for a wider range of pressure values with most pressuresensitive applications. In some applications, a soft pressure setting can make the pen overreact any small press on the pen is magnied on the screen. If you experience this, try a rmer TIP FEEL setting. Double-clicking: To make double-clicking easier, expand the tap area that accepts a double-click (the double-click distance). Note: A large double-click distance may cause a delay at the beginning of your brushstrokes in some drawing applications. If you notice such effects, try setting a smaller double-click distance and using the side switch to double-click (see using the side switch). You can also set one of the ExpressKeys to double-click.
Customizing the side switch
Select the PEN tab to change the functions assigned to the side switch of your Graphire pen. The DuoSwitch can be set to simulate a variety of mouse functions; the pull-down menus enable you to choose the function that will be performed.
Select the button functions to perform when pressing the upper or lower side switch. When you bring the pen tip within 5 mm (0.20 inch) of the tablet surface without touching the tablet and press the upper or lower side switch, the selected function occurs. Hint: To make double-clicking easier, set the side switch to double-click automatically by selecting DOUBLE CLICK.

Button functions

The following list describes the options available for tool button, tablet ExpressKeys, or Pop-up Menu settings. Please note that not all options are available for all controls.

Note: For Windows systems, a battery level icon is also displayed on the Windows Taskbar when the tablet is running under battery power. When operating under outlet power, a power plug icon will be displayed instead.

Testing your tablet

Turn on your computer and wait until the system has fully loaded. Make sure that your computer has a working Bluetooth connection, either through built-in Bluetooth support or a USB-to-Bluetooth adapter. If you have another Bluetooth device such as a mouse or keyboard, make sure it is working. 1. Check the AC power adapter. With the power adapter connected to the tablet and an active power source, the charging indicator will glow a steady green if the battery is fully charged. (For Windows systems, a power plug icon is also displayed on the Windows Taskbar.) If the battery is charging, the indicator will glow orange. The indicator will be off if the power adapter is not plugged in or is not connected to an active power outlet. 2. Check the Bluetooth connection. Switch on the Graphire Bluetooth pen tablet by pressing and releasing the power button. If the power indicator light stays on for more than ve seconds, your Bluetooth connection is working. Otherwise, it is not. If necessary, troubleshoot the connection as follows: If you have an external USB-to-Bluetooth adapter, make sure it is plugged into an active USB port or hub on your computer. If you have built-in Bluetooth support, make sure it is turned on. Make sure your Bluetooth support is working properly. Test the functionality with a different wireless Bluetooth device or check the documentation that came with your Bluetooth support to make sure it is working correctly. On Windows systems, make sure that you have installed your Bluetooth wireless device drivers correctly. (Some USB-to-Bluetooth adapters are supported in Windows XP, SP-2 and do not need a driver. Refer to your Microsoft documentation for details.) Make sure that your Bluetooth conguration supports Bluetooth Specication v1.1 or higher, and the HID prole. Make another attempt to pair the tablet to your system. See establishing a Bluetooth connection. 3. Check the tablet ExpressKeys. The power indicator light should turn green when a button is pressed.

Testing your tools

If your tool does not work as you expect, it is a good idea to rst check the assigned functions or to reset the tool to its default condition using the Pen Tablet control panel. 1. Check the pen. Move your pen across the active area of the tablet; the screen cursor should move in the corresponding direction on your monitor or display screen. Press the pen tip against the surface of the tablet. The power indicator light should turn from blue to green. Next, without applying pressure to the pen tip, hold the pen tip within approximately 5 mm (0.20 inch) above the tablet surface and press the side switch. The power indicator light should again change from blue to green. Turn the pen over and press the eraser against the surface of the tablet; the power indicator light should change from blue to green. If not, you may have a defective pen or tablet. See technical support options. 2. Check the cordless mouse. Move the cordless mouse across the active area of the tablet; the screen cursor should move in the corresponding direction on your monitor. Test the buttons on your cordless mouse by clicking each button. The tablet power indicator light should turn green when a button is pressed.

APPENDIX CONTENTS INDEX

Caring for your tablet and tools
Keep your Graphire tools and tablet surface clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to your tools and cause excessive wear to the tablet surface. Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth will help prolong the life of your tablet surface and tools; you can also dampen the cloth using a very mild soap diluted with water. Do not use volatile liquids, such as paint thinner or benzene, as they may damage the plastic case. Keep your tablet and tools in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is best. Also, your Graphire tools and tablet are not made to come apart. Twisting the pen case can break the pen. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.

Replacing the pen tip

The pen tip (nib) will wear with normal use. When the nib gets too short or develops a at point, you can replace it with another nib. Simply clasp the old nib with a tweezer, needle-nosed plier, or similar instrument and pull it straight out of the pen. Then slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen rmly push the nib until it stops.
Important: When the Graphire pen is not in use, place it in the pen storage compartment, the pen stand, or lay it at on your desk. Leaving the pen on the tablet when not in use can prevent the tablet from switching off and cause the battery to drain down. To maintain the sensitivity of your pen, do not store the pen in a container where it will rest on the tip or eraser.
To order replacement parts, see ordering parts and accessories.
