Attach the pen tether
The C5v/F5v pen comes with a tether so that you can attach the pen to your tablet to avoid
misplacing it. The tether is essentially a string with loops at each end.
To attach the pen tether
1. Slip one end of the tether through the hole at the end of the pen, then pull the pen
through the loop until it is tight.
2. Slip the other end of the tether through the attach point on the C5v/F5v then pull the
pen through the loop until it is tight.
You can purchase pens from the Motion Computing Accessories page.
