Can anyone provide any information about the dip switch settings for a
Kurta IS ONE 12*12 tablet which I have just acquired secondhand and
without any manuals for use with Acad 12? There are too many switches
to try every combination!

I have a KURTA IS ONE. I had problems getting it to work with Windows
3.1. Contacted KURTA - they said they had a new driver. Call them at

1-602-276-5533

G'day,

What do you want to set it as?

For a standard Kurta and R12/DOS you can try and use the P settings.
I use R12/WIN, and it is set as a Summagraphics, however for R12/DOS, I
believe you can use P3. You may have to try P2 and P4. P5 is for MS mouse
emulation, and P1 is the switch settings.

To set is as a Summagraphics MM1201, the switch settings are as follows:

Switch A 01 0000
Switch B 0000 0000
Switch C 1110 1001

> Terry MarshTry e-mail to JFHer...@aol.com we had several Kurta IS One's and sold
some. I introduced our group to Visual Tablet and we all switched but JFH
may be able to help.

Looks like a couple of beads fell off :-)

It should be 0001 0000

The P settings are the little squares across the top of the tablet.

P1 is as per the switch settings.

P2 is Remote, 200 ppi, logo strip functions enabled, binary high
resolution, 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 100 cps, Parity disabled, CTS disabled.

P3 is Auto Increment, 200 ppi, logo strip enabled, binary low resolution,
9600 bps, 7 data bits, 100 cps, odd parity, CTS disabled.

P4 is Auto Increment, 1000 ppi, logo strip functions enabled, binary high
resolution, 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 100 cps, Parity disabled, CTS disabled.

P5 is MS Mouse emulation.

Pointing to one and pressing the pick button selects it. As far as
emulations are concerned, I have found that the Summagraphics emulation is
the most stable. Don't worry too much about the "obsolete" note for the
Kurta drivers. If it works, then use it.

By the way, the factory default settings are:

Switch A dn, dn, dn, up, up, up, up, dn
Switch B dn, dn, up, dn, up, dn, up, up
Switch C dn, up, dn, dn, dn,dn, up, dn - IS/ONE 12 x 12
or
Switch C dn, up, dn, dn, dn,dn, dn, up - IS/ONE 8.5 x 11
or
Switch C dn, up, dn, dn, dn,dn, up, up - IS/ONE 12 x 17

digitizer also Kurta will be happy to sell you the latest drivers and all of the books for it
