The Pen Display 16 is designed to operate silently, without the use of any fans
Attach the pen clips to the display by slotting the lower edge of the clip into the Accessory Clip Rail and then snapping the top edge into the shallow grooves along the side edges of the display.
To reposition or remove the pen clips, use a gentle pull-and-twist motion.
For easy portability and a slim profile the Pen Display 16 has just one USB-C port. Connect it to your computer via the included USB-C cable. (Note: your computer must have a DP Alt-enabled USB-C port).
This extra thick cable is a special USB-C cable that passes video, pen data. and power between your pen display and computer. For proper functionality, use this cable ONLY. Your pen display is working correctly when your cursor follows your pen movement.
The included USB-C cable provides a minimum standard level of screen brightness (170 cd/m²). We say minimum because if your computer outputs more than the required 15W for the USB-C spec, then you may be able to achieve much higher screen brightness with just this one cable.
For maximum brightness (300 cd/m²) use the display with the Xencelabs Hub (purchased separately), which provides additional power. With the Hub you can also connect the Pen Display 16 to your computer via DisplayPort or HDMI.
The Xencelabs Pen Display 16 is a 4K resolution display while being a smaller physical size than many 4K monitors. This can make text look smaller than you may be used to. You can adjust how text appears in your OS settings under display text/scaling options. On Windows, we suggest a text scaling of 200% for most users.

Select your operating system and download your driver. After following the guided install, restart your system. Restarting is essential for the driver to function properly.
The driver, also called the Settings Panel, is where you can access and customize the settings for all your devices and pens.
Your pen pressure and pen buttons can be customized differently for each application you use. Take a closer look at how to do this using the application bar:
Default Settings:
The Settings Panel comes programmed with default settings for the pens.These will be used in applications for which you don't have specific settings.
Individual Applications:
The Settings Panel also has application-specific presets for some popular programs such as Adobe Photoshop, CorelPainter, or ZBrush to name a few. If you have these applications installed, they will be auto-added to the application bar along with their presets which you can edit to your preferences.
Add Applications:
Add your other favorite applications to the application bar to create custom settings across all programs.
In the Settings Panel, you can set custom pen pressure and button settings for all the applications you use.
With the Virtual Tablet feature, you don't need to move to your mouse to reach items on other displays. Simply tap your pen eraser to the surface of your Pen Display 16 to bring up your Virtual Tablet. Within this area your pen tip acts as a cursor on your other screens. Use the on-screen controls to switch between your displays.
Virtual Tablet On/Off is mapped to the pen eraser button for the 
In the All Displays mode of the Virtual Tablet you can even drag items from one display on to another, including on to your pen display.
The Virtual Tablet feature enables powerful new ways to manage your workflow. For example, you can leverage this feature with the eyedropper tool to color pick from photos or palettes on your other displays.
In the Settings Panel, you can choose the size and placement of your Virtual Tablet, and which displays to include in your Display Switch Cycle. This makes it easy to only toggle between the displays you want to control with your pen.
Your pen ships already factory calibrated. However, if you feel the need to adjust how your cursor sits under your pen tip, you can do so using the Pen Calibration tool in the Settings Panel.
Should you find your hand in the way of system windows or want to purposefully offset your cursor for any other reason, you can do so using our tool in the Settings Panel. You can toggle this feature on and off.
The Pen Display 16 offers multiple standard color spaces and a fully customizable user mode setting.
*The DCI-P3 color space will also be available for this product soon.
