Testing a Pen or Airbrush
1. While observing the POINTING DEVICE INFO column, bring your Intuos2 tool within proximity of the
tablet. A value for proximity, the device name, device type, and a device serial number should be
displayed.
2. Move your tool along the tablet surface. The X and Y D
ATA values should change to reflect the tool
position.
3. Test your Intuos2 Pen or Airbrush buttons. The tablet’s status LED should change color from orange to
green each time you click with the tool tip, press the side switch, or press the tool’s eraser to the tablet.
Click on the tablet surface with the tool tip—the S
WITCHES state and PRESSURE value should
change. (P
RESSURE should change from approximately 0% with no pressure applied to
approximately 100% when full pressure is applied.)
Next, press the side switch without pressing the tip to the tablet—the S
WITCHES state should
change. (For the Intuos2 Pen, do this for both positions of the DuoSwitch.)
Pen
Tip = 1, DuoSwitch (lower position) = 2, DuoSwitch (upper position) = 3, Eraser = 1
Airbrush
Tip = 1, Side Switch = 2, Eraser = 1
