Using the Tablet Configuration Utilities

If your application is not represented in the AccuSet Menu and does not have an AccuSet
Code or if a different configuration is required, you can use the Tablet Configuration
Utilities to structure the AccuTab VI. The Tablet Configuration Utilities replace the 24
switches that were associated with older GTCO CalComp by Turning Technologies digitizers
and the Custom Configuration Menu Card used with the AccuTab.

To Configure the AccuTab VI with the Tablet Configuration Utilities:

1. Make sure the AccuTab VI is plugged into a Serial Port, powered on and all the tablet

drivers have been uninstalled or disabled.

2. Install the Tablet Configuration Utilities from the Select Utility Software to Install

section on the TabletWorks CD, or download them from

www.gtcocalcomp.com

.

3. After installation is complete, run the Tablet Configuration Utilities from the

Programs list under GTCO CalComp by Turning Technologies TCU.

4. The Tablet Configuration Utilities will begin searching the Serial Ports for a

supported tablet.

a. If the tablet is found, information about the tablet will display under Device

Info near the bottom of the screen.

b. If the tablet is not found, a message will appear under Device Info near the

bottom of the screen.

i. If Wintab files were found, it is possible that the TabletWorks driver

has the Serial Port open.

ii. If the Serial Port is open by another application, it will not be

displayed under System Info. Close any application or uninstall any
driver that is using the Serial Port and select Refresh System Info from
the File dropdown list at the top of the screen. Click on the Serial Port
icon under System Info to search that Serial Port.
