Calcomp 9500

[Coleman Catherine]

I have a Calcomp 9X00 series digitizing board. When I switched to the 4.1 
update 3 of GRASS I had a similar problem.  There was nothing wrong with the 
system or the board settings.  I simply had to place the digitizer puck in the 
active area of the board when I pressed "yes" to continue.  Maybe your problem 
is as simple as this.
