Digitizer wanted

autoid374ceb4990 — Sat, 13 Jul 2024 15:27:52 GMT

I am looking for an old 12" x 12" digitizer tablet with a 16 button cursor to use with AutoCAD R14 on a 32 bit Win XP system. A Calcomp 2500, 3300, or 3400, or a Numonics Graphic Master II, or just about anything 12 x 12 that will work with R14. If anyone has one for sale please send me a private message.

Thanks. I found that one also. It might work, but unfortunately it is 21" x 16", and the seller does not accept returns. I am looking for this digitizer for an old, old client and it has to be 12 x 12 active area for an R14 tablet menu and he has a limited desk space. I tried to get him to use a larger tablet, but he is set in his ways.

I remember using the 12x12 Calcomp digitizers back in the late 80s when I first started learning AutoCAD. I actually even purchased the Calcomp Wiz tablet which was a promotional product offering a smaller digitizer footprint and a puck that also functioned like a mouse. In fact I wrote about this in one of my articles here:

AUGIWORLD by AUGI, Inc. - Issuu

Then at another office when AutoCAD 2000 came out they just dumped all their 12 x 12 Kurta tablets and had their staff just use a mouse instead. I guess your client is still on "Team Puck" and not willing to transition to "Team Mouse".

You will have to search websites like EBAY and other marketplace websites for what you need: or bite the bullet and purchase this one if you find nothing else.

Hi,

I have a Numonics GraphicMaster II tablet with four button puck and digitising pen. However, I bought it some time ago and no longer have the software - 5 1/4" floppy disk. Any interest?

I used to be a Numonics dealer, and I need a 16 button cursor for an old client. I have an old 16 button cursor with the mini-jack cursor that I might be able to use. Do you have any idea if the tablet still works? What is your price?

Does the tablet have the small "mini-jack" for the cursor connector?

You can email me direct through the forum.

Thanks,

Charles
