Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Wireless
Multimedia Desktop 250 by Belkin. We appreciate your business
and we are sure you will enjoy years of reliable use with these
high-quality input devices.
Although the Wireless Multimedia Desktop 250 will function
out-of-the-box as a Human Interface Device (HID) or standard
PS/2 keyboard and mouse, for advanced programmability and
functionality, we recommend that you use the included software.
This will give you added flexibility and allow you to program and
customize your settings, and reassign keys to fit your preference.

Quick Setup | For PS/2 Connections

For PS/2 Connections
1. Be sure that your computer is powered off.
2. Connect the receiver to
your computer’s PS/2
ports. The receiver has a
two-headed connector for
the keyboard and mouse
connection (purple is for
the keyboard and the USB
connection, and the green
adapter is for the mouse).
There is also a diagram on
the top connector for identification. Your computer will either
have a matching color scheme or an illustration next to the
port, or both (See Fig. 1).
3. Install the batteries into your keyboard and mouse. Please
make sure you follow the diagram on the inside of the battery
compartment to ensure that you install them correctly.
4. Power on your computer.
The receiver automatically scans for and synchronizes the
keyboard and mouse when you power on the computer. Your
keyboard and mouse should now be functioning.
NOTE: If synchronizing does not occur automatically, please
refer to the information on “Synchronizing” in the Troubleshooting
section at the end of this User Manual.

For USB Connections
1. Be sure that your computer is powered on. If you are running
Windows 98 SE, Me, or 2000, you will need to have your old
keyboard and mouse connected during the installation.
2. Install the batteries into your keyboard and mouse. Please
make sure you follow the diagram on the inside of the battery
compartment to ensure that you install them correctly.
3. Connect only the receiver to
your computer with the USB
connector. (Do not connect
the green PS/2 connection as
it is not necessary in a USB
environment) (See Fig. 2).
NOTE: When connecting the USB cable to your computer,
Windows will start a New Hardware Wizard. Windows XP
completes the Wizard automatically. In Windows 98 SE, Me, and
2000, you will need to go through the New Hardware Wizard
setup with your old keyboard and mouse. Windows 98 SE may
require you to insert your Windows 98 SE Installation CD into
your computer’s CD-ROM drive to complete the install.
4. The receiver automatically scans and synchronizes the
keyboard and mouse. Your keyboard and mouse should now
be functioning.
5. If synchronizing does not occur automatically, please refer
to the information on “Synchronizing” in the Troubleshooting
section at the end of this User Manual.

Software Driver Installation

For Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, and XP
NOTE: The keyboard and mouse should now be functioning
for basic input. If this is not the case, carefully repeat the Quick
Setup procedures in the previous pages. When the keyboard
and mouse are functioning for basic input, install the software
described in the following section.
NOTE: If you have previously installed any keyboard or mouse
driver on your computer, you must uninstall it/them before
proceeding with this installation procedure.
1. Insert your Wireless Multimedia Desktop 250 driver
installation CD into your CD-ROM drive. After a few moments,
the main menu will start automatically.
2. Select “Install Driver” and your computer will begin the
installation process.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software.
NOTE: If the main CD does not auto-start, click the “Start”
button and select “Run”. From the run dialog box, enter
“<drive>:\Setup.exe” and click “OK” (“<drive>” being the
letter of the drive that identifies your CD-ROM drive under
“My Computer”. For example, if the CD is in drive D, enter
“D:\Setup.exe”.).
4. When prompted, click “Finish” and restart your computer.
This completes the installation process.

For the Mouse:
• Press the connect button on the top of the receiver, and
then press the button on the bottom of the mouse.
Within 10 seconds, it should connect.
• If the mouse does not connect the first time, please repeat.
If the keyboard and/or mouse is/are not working after installation:
Be sure the receiver’s cables are plugged into either the
computer’s PS/2 ports or a USB port. If you are connecting it via
PS/2, make sure that both plugs are being used (purple keyboard
connector and the USB connection with the green PS/2 adapter).
If you are connecting via USB, make sure that you only connect
the USB connector.
For optimal performance
Place the receiver at least eight inches (20cm) away from the
computer monitor, the computer, any external storage devices,
or other electrical devices.
Make sure you have properly installed the batteries. Check to
make sure the batteries you have installed are not dead (you can
do this by installing them into another device).
If the keyboard does not register keystrokes, replace current
batteries with high-quality alkaline batteries.
If the mouse pointer becomes choppy on-screen, replace current
batteries with high-quality alkaline batteries. Be sure that the
mouse is not on a reflecting surface (such as a transparent,
mirrored, or glossy table). If this is the case, place an opaque or
textured material—or a mouse pad—underneath the mouse.
This will allow the optical mechanism to work accurately.
