5. For dpoint 1, pick a point on the selected line as far to the left (for horizontal line) or

bottom (for a vertical line) as possible. This locates one corner of the window
directly under one end of the line.

6. For dpoint 2, select a point at the right end of the selected line and several inches

above it (for a horizontal line) or at the top of the line and several inches to the right
of it (for a vertical line). The exact location isn’t important as long as the window is
the full length of the line. At the free end of the line, move the transducer back and
forth until you locate the spot where the out-of-proximity LED lights. Keep the
crosshairs or stylus tip over this point, lift the transducer slightly to allow the media
to move under it.

7. Move the free end of the media until the selected line is directly under the

crosshairs or stylus tip. You have aligned the line with the edge of the window,
which is aligned with the axes of the tablet.

8. Secure the remaining corners of the media.

9. Check the alignment; does the out-of-proximity LED light as the transducer cross the

line? Check both ends to make sure the media did not slip.

10. Cancel the window or create one large enough to surround the entire drawing.

Enable/Disable Non-Proximate Data

This command allows the digitizer to transmit coordinate pairs when the transducer is
away from the tablet surface. The X and Y data transmitted is invalid. However, this
feature is useful for sending signals to the host by pressing various cursor buttons; the
identities of the pressed buttons are coded into the Cursor status character in the output
format. The stylus may be pressed against any surface to transmit a PEN DOWN signal.
