and, therefore, meets the requirements for use within the EU. There may, however, be local restrictions
with regard to the use of this device. You are personally responsible for ensuring that the use of this
product is permitted according to local regulations. If in doubt, contact your local authorities. Frequency:

0678
-Nowadays, there are an increasing number of wireless products (video, audio, convenience, computer,
etc.) which work in the same frequency range as this device. It may, therefore, be possible that the
functionality of this product can be limited by or be limiting for other wireless products. This can only be
avoided by paying attention to the distance between products and, where possible, by changing
channels.
-Be careful when using wireless devices if you have a pacemaker or are dependent on other life-saving,
sensitive electronic equipment. This product transmits radio signals!
3. Inserting the batteries
1. Open the battery compartment on the bottom of the mouse.
2. Insert the two AAA batteries provided into the battery compartment as shown in the diagram (see figure
1).
3. Close the battery compartment by replacing the flap.
4. Selecting the channel
The mouse can work on two different channels, which ensures that there are no disturbances if the same
type of mouse is used near your mouse. You must select a channel before using the mouse.
1. Open the battery compartment on the bottom of the mouse. A switch will be visible (see figure 1).
Figure 1: The bottom of the mouse with an open battery compartment
2. Set the switch to position 1 or 2 and remember which position you have chosen. Use a pointed object,
such as a toothpick, to change the switch.
3. Close the battery compartment by replacing the flap.
4. Next, take the Wireless RF Receiver and find the switch used to change the channel on the right-hand
side of the Receiver. This is indicated with 1 and 2.
5. Set the switch on the Wireless RF Receiver to the same position you have just set the mouse to (position
1 or 2).
5. Uninstalling old drivers and devices
The most common cause of faults during installation is the presence of a driver for a similar, old product. The
best solution is to first remove all drivers related to old devices before installing the new driver.
1. Enter the Windows ‘Safe Mode’ (press F8 when starting Windows and then select ‘Safe Mode’ from the
menu which is displayed).
2. Go to ‘Start – Settings – Control Panel’ and double-click on the ‘Add/Remove Programs’ icon.

3. Find all the programs for similar, old devices and remove these by clicking on the ‘Add/Remove’ button.
When in the ‘Safe Mode’, it is possible for some programs to appear twice. In that case, remove all the
programs, which appear twice.
4. Restart the computer.
6. Connecting the mouse
Note: The drivers and/or software for your old mouse must be removed before installing the Trust Ami
Mouse 300 Wireless Dual Scroll. If available, use this software’s ‘Uninstall’ option.
1. Turn off your computer and all the peripheral devices.
2. Remove the old mouse from your computer.
3. Connect the Trust Wireless RF Receiver to the PS/2 port on your computer (see figure 2).

7. Installing software
Note: The latest driver can be downloaded from www.trust.com/12112.Check whether a new driver is
available and use this for the installation. Driver version is printed on CD-ROM.
Note: Make sure all other programs are closed during the installation.
Note: During installation in Windows XP, you may receive a message saying that the driver has not been
signed. This does not cause a problem for the functionality.
Note: In the example, ‘D:\’ is used to indicate the CD-ROM drive. This may be different for your computer.
1. Insert the CD-ROM in your CD-ROM player. The installer will start automatically.
If this is not the case, follow the steps below:
a) Select ‘Run’ in the start-up menu.
b) Type in [D:\SETUP.EXE] and click on ‘OK’ to start up the Trust Software Installer.
2. Select the language you want desire to use for the installation.
3. Click on ‘AMI MOUSE 300 WIRELESS DUAL SCROLL‘ to start the installation.
4. Follow the steps that appear on your screen.
5. Select the option to restart your computer and then click on ‘Finish’. The driver has now been
successfully installed.
6. The Ami Mouse 300 Wireless Dual Scroll uses a number of different ID codes to prevent interference
from another wireless mouse. Figure 7 will appear after your computer has been restarted.
-If you use more than one Ami Mouse 300 Wireless Dual Scroll in the same room, you must click on
‘Connect ID’ to assign a unique ID code to your mouse. This window will appear again the next time
you start your computer and you will have to click on ‘Connect ID’ again to assign a code to your
mouse.
-You must remove the tick from the check box indicated by the red arrow in figure 7 if only one Ami
Mouse 300 Wireless Dual Scroll is used. Next, click on ‘Connect ID’. This window will not be
displayed the next time you restart your computer.
