If a connected mouse or keyboard is not working, please check whether the USB keyboard
or mouse is switched on, connected with the “plusoptiX S16” and whether the batteries are
inserted. If your input device still doesn’t work, this means it is not supported by the drivers
installed in the “plusoptiX S16”. Use input devices from another manufacturer instead in this
case.

Non-functioning external input devices do not constitute a service or warranty
case!
