Locating the RF-Mouse Receiver
Your RF-Mouse has limitations on the range or distance from the
receiver. To make sure that your mouse sends and receives properly,
refer to the following:
1. For optimal performance, place the receiver at least 8 inches (20
centimeters) away from other electrical devices, such as the
computer, the monitor, or external storage drives.
2. The RF-Mouse should be no farther than 3.3 feet (1.0 meter) from
the mouse receiver. This will ensure optimal communication
between the mouse and receiver.
3. If you are working on a metallic surface, try using a mouse pad
and turning the receiver face down for better reception.
4. Switch frequency channels to prevent interference from other RF
pointing devices. (See the following section for more
information.)
Selecting the Frequency Channel
The RF-Mouse operates on two frequency channels. To
prevent interference when using two RF Mice in close
proximity a different frequency channel should be used for
each mouse. Refer to the following to change the frequency
channel for your mouse:
1. Set the frequency channel on the receiver to 1 or 2.
2. Remove the battery cover from the mouse (see the
following Inserting the Batteries section).
3. Set the frequency channel on the mouse to 1 or 2. (The
frequency channel for mouse and receiver must be the
same.)
Inserting the Batteries
The RF-Mouse uses two AAA batteries. For best
performance, use only alkaline batteries. Refer to
the following to insert the batteries:
1. Press the tab on the bottom of the mouse
cover as shown here and remove the cover.
2. Insert the two AAA batteries. (The correct
polarity is indicated on the battery
compartment casing.)
3. Replace the cover.

Checking the Batteries power
To check the battery power, right-click the mouse icon in the
Taskbar. Choose the “Check RF-Mouse Status” option to display the
RF-Mouse Status window. The current battery percentage charge is
shown.
Installing the Mouse Software
Before you can take advantage of the many features your mouse offers, you must install the driver.
The driver is on the installation diskette that came packaged with your mouse.
Windows 95/98/2000/NT4.0/ME/XP installation
1. Connect the mouse to your computer.
2. Insert the installation diskette into your floppy disk drive.
3. Click the Start button and then click Run.
4. In the Run dialog window, type A:\setup, where “A” is the letter of your floppy disk drive.
5. Click OK and follow the instructions on your screen to complete the installation.
The RF-Mouse ID code
Each RF-Mouse is assigned a unique ID code at manufacture, so the receiver only picks up the signal
from your mouse and prevents other RF-Mouse radio signals from operating on your computer. This
feature can also be disabled, allowing other RF-pointing devices to operate your computer.
Connecting the RF-Mouse ID Code
When the driver installation is finished your
computer reboots and the RF-Mouse window
(shown on the right) appears.
CONNECT ID: Move the RF-Mouse for a few
seconds to establish a connection, then click
Connect ID. The unique ID code of your mouse is
recognized and another RF pointing device will
not function on your computer.
Exit: Click Exit if no other RF pointing devices
are within 3 meters range or if you want other RF
pointing devices to be able to access your
computer.
Changing the RF-Mouse ID Code
You can use a new RF-Mouse on your computer without changing the Radio receiver; you just need to
change the ID code. Refer to the following:
1. Press [Shift + Alt + F11] or [Shift + Alt + F12] to call up the RF-Mouse ID Code window.
2. Move the RF-Mouse for a few seconds to establish a connection, then click Connect ID.
3. The new ID code is Connected and the RF-Mouse window closes.
4. Click Exit to close the RF-Mouse ID code window.
