Installing Drivers
- Download the Driver/Software package: Click Here
- Open the SimplicitySlate_1.3.5.170922.exe driver/software installation package.
- If a prompt like this appears, Click "More info" (If this prompt does not appear move to the next step.) Then click "Run anyway".
- If a white Windows Security prompt appears with "Would you like to install this device software?" written, then click "Install".
- The Installer will open: Click "Install"
- It will take a minute to completely install.
- Once it is finished loading and installing this page will appear:
- Click "Complete" and your computer will automatically reboot. If it does not automatically reboot, then manually restart your computer.
- When your computer is completely booted up, plug in the SimplicitySlate USB receiver dongle.
- Now open the "Pentablet" application. The icon looks like this:
- If you receive a warning message that says "Tablet receiver dongle not detected. Insert the USB receiver and re-open the application." Then unplug the USB dongle, plug it back in and reopen the Pentablet application.
- Once the application is open you will know that the new driver is installed and working correctly!
- To maximize the functionality of this new driver, check the "Windows Ink" checkbox at the bottom right. This will allow the Slate and Pen to be pressure sensitive.
- If you would like to change what monitor the Slate controls, navigate to the top right where it says "Current Screen", then click the drop-down box and select the monitor you would like to control. (It will display a preview of the monitor that is selected). After you have selected the monitor you want to control, navigate to the bottom and click "Apply"
