STEP 1: DISPLAY INSTALLATION
In this step, Cintiq is installed as a display on your system.
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 display or video card.
•
If your computer has only one video connector, you will need to unplug your previous display.
Determine if your computer has a digital (DVI) or analog (VGA) connector, and set the DVI/VGA
switch located on the converter unit for the video connection you are using. See
– A –
in the
connection diagram on page 13.

Making sure to tighten the thumbscrews on the connectors, follow the instructions below for your
video connector. See

Plug the pen display’s integrated cable into the matching connector on the converter unit.
When fully seated, the connector will snap into place. See

on the next page.
•
Connect the power adapter to the converter unit. Then connect the adapter’s power cable and plug
the adapter into an AC outlet. See

•
Turn on Cintiq. The power LED will light orange.
For DVI operation, connect the Cintiq video cable between the DVI-I connector
located on the converter unit and the DVI-D or DVI-I connector on your video
card. Be sure to connect the DVI-I end of the cable to the converter box, and
the DVI-D end to your video card.
For VGA operation, connect the Cintiq video cable between the DVI-I
connector located on the converter unit and the VGA connector on your video
card.
If connecting to an Apple ADC or mini-VGA connection, you will need to obtain
an appropriate adapter. Adapters can be purchased at various retail outlets.
For ADC operation, plug the DVI-D end of the Cintiq video cable into the ADC
to DVI-D adapter. Then connect the DVI-I end of the Cintiq cable to the DVI-I
connector on the converter unit. Next connect the ADC adapter end to the
ADC connector on your video card.
For an Apple mini-VGA connector, plug the VGA end of the Cintiq video cable
into the mini-VGA port adapter. Then connect the DVI-I end of the Cintiq cable
to the DVI-I connector on the converter unit. Next connect the mini-VGA port
end to the mini-VGA port on your video card.
