Connecting the Wacom One to your computer

The Wacom One cable has 2 connections on each end. All cables must be plugged in appropriately for the pen display to function.

On the same end as the wall outlet plug is a USB-C connection. The USB-C connection plugs into the Wacom One.

The other end has both an HDMI and a USB-A connection, both of which must be plugged into your computer. If you do not have an available HDMI and/or USB-A port, you will need to get an adapter.

If you do not have an adapter, please check with your department or business manager who may already have a solution in place, or may be able to contact the UVM Tech Store to obtain a suitable dongle.

At the moment of writing this guide, the Tech Store offers this adapter for 2016+ MacBook Pro and 2018 MacBook Airs. Windows may also be able to use that adapter, but should contact the UVM Tech Store for recommendations.
