The pen might not work for different reasons such as a drained battery, loose or broken pen tip, or a touchscreen that is not configured for pen input.

>Chek the AAAA battery, if necessary. Make sure to insert the positive end of the battery facing the pen tip.

The CP311-1H model doesn't have an active digitizer, the CP311-1HN does. So only the capacitive pens will work, not the sharp pointed styluses.
