- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

Configuring Calcomp Drawing Board III
This section describes how to configure a Calcomp Drawing Board III for use with P3.
To set up the tablet:
1. Turn on configuration mode by clicking on the Config/Exit
key. The configuration light will turn on and remain on while the
tablet is in configuration mode.
2. Click on the Bank key where you need to work (A,B, or C).
You can determine which bank you are in by placing the pointing
tool over one of the Bank keys. The power light is on if the bank
is active.
3. Determine whether the Configuration keys are on or off by
placing the pointing tool over each key. If the key is on, the
power light is on; if the key is off, the power light is off. Click on
the key to toggle the setting, if necessary.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 so that the configuration matches the
settings displayed in Figure 1.
5. After you have completed your setup, you can save it by
clicking on one of the Save keys. This will ensure the settings will
persist when the unit is powered off.
6. Exit configuration mode by clicking on the Config/Exit key.
The configuration light will turn off.
The configuration settings in Figure 1 are compatible with P3 with a serial port
setting of 9600-N-8-1.
