Check the pen.

Move your Graphire Pen across the active area of the tablet; the screen cursor should

move in the corresponding direction on your monitor. Press the pen tip against the tablet surface.

The status LED on the tablet should turn from orange to green. Now, without applying pressure to the

pen tip, press the side switch. The status LED should again change from orange to green. Turn the

pen over and press the eraser against the surface of the tablet; the status LED should change from

orange to green. If not, you may have a defective pen or tablet. See Contacting

Verifying Your Macintosh is USB Ready

If the tablet LED does not light, your computer may not have the necessary USB software installed, or may

not be conﬁgured properly.

• If you have an iMac, you will need Macintosh OS 8.5 and Mac OS ROM 1.2.1. Refer to the i

Mac

Requirements for information on running the iMac Update software located on the Graphire CD.

• If you added a USB interface card you must also install system software to support the USB card.

• Otherwise, if your computer came from the factory with a USB port installed, it should be USB ready.

• Plug in another USB device to verify that the USB port is functional.
