Using the Grip Pen
W O R K I N G W I T H T H E G R I P P E N ( U P - 9 1 1 E )
As you work with Cintiq, you can rest your hand lightly on the display screen, just as if it were a
drawing board or sheet of paper. Hold the Grip Pen as you would a pencil. Make sure the side
switch is in a convenient location where you can press it with your thumb or forefinger, but won’t
accidentally press it while drawing.

Tip switch
Pen Tip
The pen is activated as soon as it enters proximity, about 5 mm (0.2 in), above the Interactive Pen
Display screen. This allows you to position the screen cursor or use the DuoSwitch without
touching the pen tip to the display screen.
When pressure is applied to the pen tip, the tip switch is turned on and the pen simulates a mouse
button click. The tip click pressure can be adjusted in the Wacom Tablet Control Panel.
Please refer to the online Help for details.
Eraser
To use the eraser, hold the Grip Pen upside down. When the eraser is within proximity of the
active area, the tablet reports the pen coordinates and the pressure applied to the eraser.
The eraser can be used as an eraser or assigned to another function, depending on the application.
The tablet distinguishes the tip switch from the eraser switch. Refer to the online Help for the pen
settings.
DuoSwitch
The DuoSwitch is programmable, and can be used to perform the same click and double-click
functions as the tip switch. Toggle the DuoSwitch in either direction to activate the upper or lower
button functions. Please refer to the online Help for more information on switch settings.
Note: If you do not care to use the side switch, you can remove if by following the directions
in DuoSwitch Removal and Installation, on page 40.
Note:
The Grip Pen
should never be stored
in a container where it
will rest on its tip or
eraser. When the pen
is not in use, place your
pen in the pen stand or
lay it flat on your desk.
