Installing Digitizer & Drivers
1. The Logic Trace software can be used
WITH or WITHOUT the Wintab/Tabletworks windows drivers. Since
the installation is easier with the Wintab driver, try that
method first. Also it is very important that the wintab button
is checked in the Tabletworks Control Panel (steps 6 and 7
below)
Rollup 3, GTCO Super L6, and GTCO Accutab 6
digitizers:
2. Before connecting the digitizer to the
computer, install the wintab/tabletworks driver on the computer.
Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive on your computer. The
installer will
autoload. If it doesn’t, click on the Start button on the
Windows Task Bar and select Run from the menu. Type X:\setup.exe
(X represents the CD drive letter). Follow the onscreen prompts
to complete the installation. A TabletWorks icon
will display in the System Tray on the Windows Task Bar.
Right-click on the icon to display the TabletWorks Menu, which
provides access to all the TabletWorks features.
3. You can also download the driver from
the GTCO website at
www.gtcocalcomp.com. We also provide the driver on the Logic
Trace CNC DXF CD.
4. Connect the USB cable into the digitizer
and then into the computer. The digitizer should beep 4 times
indicating it has power. No power supply is needed, getting
power from the computer via the USB cable. Some laptop computers
do not provide the proper power through the USB, contact our
office for the power adapter for the digitizer if needed.
5. The digitizer can also be connecting
through a serial cable. Connect the power supply to the
digitizer and the serial cable to the digitizer and then to the
computer.
6. On the digitizer, digitize the S button
(on the Accutab it is the A button), the 0 button and the 1
button to configure the digitizer. On the Rollup digitize the 90
degree arrow button in the lower left corner to properly orient
the digitizer.
7. After connecting the usb or serial
cable, start the Tabletworks control panel by clicking the
Tabletworks icon
on the lower right corner of windows or clicking Windows Start,
Programs, Tabletworks, Tabletworks.
8. The digitizer should be listed under the
tablet model. If the wintab button at the top of the screen is
not checked, click to check it. Click Apply and close this
screen. The digitizer and driver should be ready to use. When
the cursor or pen stylus is moved on the digitizer, it should
move the mouse pointer on the screen.
9. Test the digitizer by starting the Logic
Trace software, click Digitize New, Click the Setup Menu, Tablet
Setup. The driver should be set for Wintab Any Manufacturer,
click the digitizer size, click install, click test XY, digitize
a point on the digitizer. You shoule get a point such as x=xxxxx,
y=yyyyy.
9. If you do not get a point, try turning
the digitizer off and on, rebootting the computer, and the run
the test again.

digitizers, contact out office.
