George can you scan the manual please? I have the same lightpen, and tried many times, but can!t use it.
(I tried ofcourse with CRT display.)
Maybe there's some basic thing i forgot.

@Proky
I had the same problems. Here some tips
- Go to the main menu
- darken your room, as much as possible
- check if the leightpen reacts when you hold it on the menu squares
- tweak the brightness, contrast and color of the monitor until you see a reaction..
good luck. These lightpens are very tricky to get working

Here is the manual: https://plus4world.powweb.com/publications/CADmaster

Ah, thanks for the Manual, i did not think i can find it at the CADMaster page happy

My lightpen reacts only in the first row, and makes nothing lower. So it "works", i can choose Draw, but not any other from the second row, and i also can't draw anything.

But thanks for the info, i will try it in darkness.

Try with lower light and other monitor settings. To draw you have to hold a key..i think it was Crtl or Alt
