5.0 - Using the Signature Pad
To sign, use the supplied pen to write directly on the designated signing surface. Signatures
are not stored in the signature pad but are captured by software on the computer. Therefore,
the fact that a signature has been made does not guarantee the signature has been captured.
In order to capture signatures on the computer, be sure that SigPlus or other Topaz-
compatible end user software is running, and the signature pad is connected to the correct
port, as specified in the “Software Installation” and “Signature Pad Connection” sections
above.
SignatureGem Pads
Topaz SignatureGem signature pads feature either a rugged, long-lasting plastic surface or an
interactive tempered-glass LCD surface, and they require a Topaz active electromagnetic
digitizing pen to function properly. Topaz SignatureGem pads are designed to allow: capture
of electronic signatures only (using the plastic pen tip), as well as the simultaneous capture of
electronic signatures and “ink-on-paper” signatures (using the inking pen tip).
NEVER use an ink pen or the attached signature pen with inking pen tip directly
on the signature pad surface, as this will ruin your signature pad.
ClipGem Users: Insert your sheet of paper under the provided clip atop the
signing surface, using the supplied paper guides.
SigLite Pads
Topaz SigLite signature pads use binary, digital, pressure-sensitive technology. To sign, use
the attached plastic stylus pen to write directly on the surface of your signature pad. Sign as
you normally would.
Although the signature pad sensor will register pressure from any object, such as a fingertip or
pencil, please sign using the attached stylus pen ONLY, and refrain from bringing any foreign
object into contact with the sensor surface.
GemView Tablet Displays
Topaz GemView Tablet Displays are half-page and full-page tablet displays for signing
documents, displaying videos, ads, and more. To sign, use the attached electronic pen to
write directly on the surface of the GemView Tablet Display. Sign as you normally would.
