INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase! Your new RF-Mouse is easy to install and offers you a
host of useful features. The Radio receiver can be conveniently placed to give you the
freedom you need while working. The vertical wheel allows you to scroll, or zoom in and
out in a document. You can program the mouse buttons to launch the NetJump or
LuckyJump for a quick start to programs you run frequently. And, your RF-Mouse has a
unique ID code, so other RF (Radio Frequency) pointing devices won’t affect your sys-
tem.
Connecting the RF-Mouse Receiver
The RF-Mouse receiver connects to your computer in the same
way as a conventional mouse allowing you to place the receiver
wherever is convenient on your desktop.
1. Locate the round 6-pin PS/2 mouse port on the back of your
computer.
2. Insert the PS/2 connector into the PS/2 port.
Locating the RF-Mouse Receiver
Your RF-Mouse has limitations on the range or distance from the receiver. To make sure
that your mouse sends and receives properly, refer to the following:
1. For optimal performance, place the receiver at least 8 inches (20 centimeters) away
from other electrical devices, such as the computer, the monitor, or external storage
drives.
2. For best performance, place the RF-Mouse no farther than 3.3 feet (1.0 meter) from the
mouse receiver. This will ensure optimal communication between the mouse and receiv-
er.
3. If you are working on a metallic surface, try using a mouse pad and turning the receiv-
er face down for better reception.
4. Switch frequency channels to prevent interference from other RF pointing devices.
