CALIBRATING THE DTU-710

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.  Set the DTU-710 in its working position, then follow the procedure below. 

Important:

 When using a VGA connection with 

the DTU-710, make sure the LCD monitor is 
properly adjusted before calibrating the tablet.  
See 

Adjusting the LCD Monitor

, beginning on 

page 23.

In the Tablet control panel, select the C

ALIBRATE

 

tab.

If you are working with multiple monitors, select 
the M

ONITOR

 corresponding to the DTU-710 LCD 

display.  (Only monitors that are set to one of the 
resolutions supported by the DTU-710 will appear 
in the list.)

Click on the C

ALIBRATE

 button to activate the 

calibration screen.

Holding the pen and positioning your head as you 
normally do when working with the tablet, use the 
pen tip to click on the center of the cross-hairs in 
the upper-left corner.

Then click on the center of the cross-hairs that are 
displayed in the lower-right corner.

Test the alignment and click OK to accept the 
calibration.  Click T

RY

 A

GAIN

 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.

Cross-hairs

Adjustment pattern for phase and 
pitch.  See 

Adjusting Pitch and Phase 

(VGA Only)

 on page 26 for details.

Note:

 If more than one pen display tablet is installed on your system, the control panel will change the settings 

for the tablet that was last used before opening the control panel.

To calibrate two pen display tablets, first touch the pen to tablet #1 and open the control panel without touching 
the pen to tablet #2.  In the control panel, select the correct monitor and calibrate tablet #1.  Close the control 
panel, touch the pen to tablet #2, and again open the control panel without touching the pen to tablet #1.  
Select the correct monitor and calibrate tablet #2.
