HARDWARE SETUP

A. Charging Up the Battery

For safety reasons, the battery was partially charged in the factory before

packing. You should fully charge up the battery before using the device

the first time.

1. Insert Connector B of the USB Charging Cable into the Battery

Charging Jack.

2. Insert Connector A of the USB Charging Cable into a USB port.

When the battery is charging the Battery Status Light stays on.

3. Wait until the Battery Status Light turns off and remove the USB

Charging Cable. The normal charging time should be 2 to 3 hours

if a dedicated USB port is used. Charging time will be longer if a

non-powered USB hub is used. (Remark B)

4. Repeat Steps 1 to 3 when the battery is flashing. You can keep on

using the device during charging; however, the charging time will

be extended. (Remark C)

Remark B: Use a dedicated USB port or a powered USB Hub for fastest charging.

Remark C: Lithium batteries do not have memory effect and can be partially

charged.

B. Installing the Device

1. Turn on your computer, if it is not already on.

2. Turn on your V-Mouse by pressing down both the left button and

the right button for 10 seconds, if it is not already on. (Remark D)

3. Connect the Dongle Receiver to a USB port. A message “wireless

pen mouse (2.4 GHz)” should appear on your computer screen.

Allow the automatic set up process to complete and the messages

to disappear. (Remark E)

4. Press down the Channel Select Button A on the Dongle Receiver

once and the Transmission Status Light should start flashing.

5. Hold down the Channel Select Button B and press down the Right

Mouse Button once and then release both buttons. Wait for the

Transmission Status Light to turn off, the installation is

completed.

6. After the first successful installation, your Dongle Receiver and

V-Mouse are permanently matched. You DO NOT need to repeat

Steps 4 and 5 even when you take your V-Mouse to a different

computer.

7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to re-establish the transmission channel

setting when needed.

Remark D: For safety reasons, your V-Mouse was shipped with the power turned

off. Please turn on the power before using it the first time.

Remark E: The series of messages will appear on each computer only once,

when it receives the V-Mouse dongle the first time.

OPERATION

A. Adjusting the Mouse Speed Setting

On Windows Computer:

Click on Start/Settings/Control Panel from the root Window Frame to bring

up the Control Panel and click on the Mouse icon to bring up the Mouse

Setting Pane. Adjust the Speed Setting (using the slider) to the ¼ position

from the slow end. Turn off the Acceleration function if it is available.

Save the setting and exit the Control Panel.

On Apple/Mac Computer:

Open the System Preferences and bring up the Keyboard And Mouse pane.

Adjust the Mouse Tracking Sensitivity to a slower setting as needed. Save

the setting and exit the System Configurations.

B. Using the Device

1. We suggest first-time users start with the “lap-style”. That is, hold

the V-Mouse like a pen and put your holding fist on your lap.

2. Keep the bottom of your fist on your lap and rest your elbow firmly

against your body or a stable object. Use the device as if you were

making a drawing on your lap to control the pointer movement on

the computer screen.

3. Adjust the mouse speed setting as needed (Refer to subsection A

of the OPERATION Section) to make the pointer control operation

as comfortable as possible.

4. Once you are used to the operation, you can try the V-Mouse on

the desk top or any other surfaces.

5. Double-click the Right Mouse Button in rapid succession will put

the mouse in the Scrolling Mode and change the Mouse Pointer

into a round “scrolling icon”. The movement of the mouse now

controls the scroll bars of the active window. (Remark F)

6. Click or press down any button in the Scrolling Mode will bring the

mouse back to the Mouse Mode.

Remark F: This “Third Mouse Button” scroll function does not work in all software

applications. Some software vendors and older software may use a

different protocol and therefore does not behave like the Internet

Explorer Browser. You should not assume that the V-Mouse Scrolling

Function works in a specific software until you have tried it.

C. 3-Stage PowerSave Feature

Your V-Mouse has a built-in 3-stage power save feature to maximize the

9/97

STI2006-2x3ML-v1p2

battery usage. If it stays idle for more than a second, the LED dims and

the V-Mouse goes into Stage One Power Save Mode. In Stage One, the

motion sensor and the buttons remain operational. If the V-Mouse

remains idle for 5 minutes in Stage One Power Save Mode, the LED starts

flashing and the V-Mouse enters Stage Two Power Save Mode. In this

mode, the motion sensor and the buttons remain operational.

If the V-Mouse remains idle for 60 minutes in Stage Two Power Save

Mode, the LED turns off and the V-Mouse enters Stage Three Power

SaveMode. In this mode the motion sensor is turned off but the buttons

remains operational. (Remark G)

Remark G: Clicking the mouse button in any Power Save mode will bring the

V-Mouse to the normal Mouse Mode immediately.

D. Turning Power On/Off

To turn off the power of the handheld unit, press down the Left Button

and the Right Button at the same time for 10 seconds and wait for the

Blue LED to turn off.

To turn on the power of the handheld unit, press down the Left Button

and the Right Button at the same time for 10 seconds and wait for the

Blue LED to turn on.

You DO NOT have to reinstall the device or reset the communication

channel between the handheld device and the receiver after turning off

the power.

E. Using the Laser Presenter Function [VM-223]

Hold down the Channel Select Button B and press down the Laser Pointer

Button once will put the V-Mouse into the Presenter Mode. In the

Presenter Mode, the Blue LED is turned off, the Right Button becomes the

Page Up button, and the Left Button becomes the Page Down button.

Hold down the Channel Select Button B and press the Laser Pointer

Button once again will switch the V-Mouse back to the Mouse Mode.

For safety reasons, the VM-223 comes with an automatic Laser Shut-off

function. The Laser Pointer will automatically turn off when the laser

button is pressed down for 4 minutes.

To avoid confusion, the VM-223 returns to the Mouse Mode when the

device is unattended for 1 hour in the Presenter Mode.
