1. Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Memorex®Wireless EZ Touch Keyboard and
Mouse combo! This product includes a wireless, multimedia keyboard and an 800 dpi opti-
cal scroll mouse. Advanced radio frequency technology means reliable performance and
optimum accuracy. Because the products operate on two channels and have 256 IDs per
channel, there is virtually no interference.
Additionally, the RF7000 creates a fast, efficient work environment for all your favorite
functions and programs. One-touch editing features allow you to conveniently cut, copy
and paste with the tap of a single key. Additional time-savers include multimedia keys,
enhanced function keys for Microsoft Office, and Internet hot keys. The programmable
scroll wheel simplifies navigation by performing a host of timesaving functions including
volume control, forward and backward Internet navigation, and previous or next CD track
selection.
The mouse uses the latest optical technology, which means precise movement and no
mouse ball to clean. Because the optical sensor detects motion on hundreds of
surfaces, you can use the mouse on wood, plastic, or even your pants leg. The mouse
fits comfortably in either hand and operates with a resolution of 800 dpi for more
accurate cursor control. It has a scroll wheel, and three of its five buttons may be pro-
grammed using the included software.
In order to enjoy the full potential of the RF7000 EZ Touch Keyboard and Optical Mouse
combo, please read this manual carefully.

3. Using the Keyboard and Mouse
This wireless keyboard and mouse combo consists of a receiver that plugs into the
computer, a wireless keyboard, and a wireless mouse.
3.1 Hardware Installation
3.1.1 Getting the Receiver Ready
Connect the receiver and select a wireless channel:
1. Make sure your PC is switched off.
2. Turn the receiver over and find the channel slide switch. Select either channel
CH1 or CH2. Remember which channel you selected.
3. Connect the receiver to your PC by plugging the receiver's USB connector into your PC.
4. Set the receiver on a flat surface and follow these guidelines:
a. There should be a minimum of 8 inches clearance between the receiver and other
electronic devices.
b. There should be a minimum of 8 inches clearance between the receiver and the
monitor.
c. The distance between the receiver and the wireless mouse or keyboard should not
exceed 4.92 feet.
d. For better reception, the receiver works best on a nonmetallic surface.

3. Use the channel slide switch on the back of the keyboard to select the same channel as
the one you selected for the receiver.
3.1.3 Getting the Mouse Ready
Install two AA batteries (provided) into the mouse and select the same wireless channel as
the receiver.
1. Turn the mouse over and find the battery compartment. Lift the cover.
2. Use the channel slide switch, located inside the battery compartment of the mouse, to
select the same channel as the one selected on the receiver and on the keyboard.
3. Insert the included AA batteries into the compartment. Follow the polarity signs in the
battery compartment and make sure the batteries are placed in the correct direction.
4. Replace the battery compartment lid.
Notes:
1. The keyboard and mouse each use two pieces of standard UM-3 "AA" 1.5V batteries.
2. Battery life for the keyboard is approximately 3-4 months, depending on the intensity of
usage.
3. Make sure the receiver is at least 8 inches away from the monitor and is placed in a
location relatively free of strong electromagnetic or transmission sources. This helps to
ensure optimal reception of the keyboard and mouse signal.
4. Your computer should be off during the entire hardware installation and channel
selection process.
5. The Keyboard and Mouse IDs must be resynchronized with the Receiver ID each time
that the batteries are replaced or removed from their battery compartment. If you are
only changing the batteries in one device, only the device with new batteries must be
resynchronized.
6. The optical mouse is deigned to save power by going into a Sleep mode after
10 minutes of inactivity. Simply move the mouse or click on the buttons to wake it up.

3.2 Wireless ID Setting
The mouse, keyboard and receiver each contain two channels, and each channel
contains 256 IDs that are randomly selected when you press the ID button. This ID-
recognition function helps protect against interference from other wireless devices in
the same environment.
Important:
Whenever you want to set the IDs of both the keyboard and mouse, you
must first set the receiver ID and keyboard ID, and then set the receiver ID and mouse
ID, as described in this procedure.
3.2.1 Synchronizing your Receiver, Keyboard and Mouse
1. Leaving your current keyboard and mouse connected, turn the computer on.
2. Let Windows detect your new USB Receiver (your Windows Operating System CD may
be needed). Once the USB Receiver is finished being detected, continue to step 3.
3. Press the ID button on the top of the receiver once. The LED light will start to blink.
4. Turn the keyboard over and locate the ID button near the left footpad. Press the ID
button firmly with a blunt pointed object (like the tip of a ballpoint pen), then let go.
The receiver should blink rapidly then stop.
Important:
If 30 seconds pass before you complete step 4, you must repeat steps 3 and 4
to set the keyboard ID. If the ID button is pressed more than one time during the keyboard
setup (step 4), you must start over with step 3 and set the receiver ID.
5. Press the ID button on the top of the receiver once. The LED light will start to blink.

6. Turn the mouse over and locate the ID button on the left side of the mouse near
the battery compartment. Press the ID button firmly with a blunt pointed object
(like the tip of a ballpoint pen), then let go. The receiver should blink rapidly then
stop.
Important:
If 30 seconds pass before you complete step 6, you must repeat steps 5
and 6 to set the mouse ID. If the ID button is pressed more than once time during
the mouse setup (step 6), you must start over with step 5 and set the receiver ID. You
do not need to reset the keyboard ID.
7. To quickly verify that your new keyboard and mouse are properly synchronized,
depress a key or two on your keyboard. If the LED on the Receiver blinks
steadily, then it has made the connection. For the mouse, simply move it around
on a flat surface and click a button or two. If the LED on the receiver blinks
steadily, then the mouse has made the connection as well.
8. Now both the keyboard and mouse should be communicating properly. If they do
not seem to work please check for proper installation of the batteries and repeat
the steps again.
9. After you have verified that both your keyboard and mouse are functioning
properly, you should shut down your computer and remove your previous key-
board and mouse.
Notes:
1. You must follow the procedure above to set the ID of the receiver, keyboard
and mouse.
2. Once the receiver ID button is pressed you have 30 seconds to complete the
entire process, or you will need to begin again.
3. Once the keyboard or mouse ID buttons have been pressed, the green receiver
light will flash. Once the device ID is set, it will stop flashing and remain fully lit.
3.2.2 Replacing Batteries and Resetting ID Buttons
When the batteries are low, a battery low icon will show on the right-bottom corner
of the taskbar instead of the keyboard driver software icon . At that time you must
replace the batteries.
IDs need to be reset when batteries are changed.
When changing the batteries on one part of the product, you do not need to reset all the
IDs. Simply reset the ID for the receiver and the part that required new batteries. You must
press the receiver ID button first and then press the keyboard or mouse button. Refer to
the steps 3 and 4 or 5 and 6 above.

device IDs if your keyboard and mouse are not working properly.
2. Mouse does not work accurately: Use the mouse only on a clean, flat, non-slip-
pery surface in order to ensure smooth and accurate cursor action. If you use a
mouse-pad, choose a light-colored one to use less battery power.

function keys do not work properly after installing the KeyMaestro software, please
make sure that there are no other keyboard or mouse software programs installed.
If any is found, please remove all of the keyboard and mouse software (including
the KeyMaestro software), then restart your computer and reinstall only the
KeyMaestro software.
