1 Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of this wireless RF keyboard and mouse!

This keyboard and mouse will finally free you of the constraints of your desktop by providing a wireless connection between your keyboard/mouse and your PC.

Pass around the keyboard or mouse during meetings without having to bother about a cable blocking your way or write e-mails and surf the Internet from the comfort of your living room couch!

This keyboard and mouse kit consists of a keyboard, a mouse and a receiver.

The receiver is connected to your PC through a cable with both a keyboard and mouse connector. The keyboard and mouse can operate freely within a radius of at least 3.28 feet (1 meter) from the receiver, which itself has a maximum range from your PC of around 3.28 feet (1 meter). Because the keyboard and mouse use radio frequencies to transmit the wireless signal it has no constrictions on viewing angles such as with infrared devices like your TV’s remote control, etc.

Besides providing unprecedented freedom of movement when operating the keyboard or mouse, the kit also offers more extra functionality by introducing dedicated buttons for often used Internet browser functions as well as Sleep functions. (Please note: The Internet keys work only under Microsoft

 Internet

6 Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing problems with your keyboard or mouse please check the following:

1. Take out the receiver’s connector and check both the receiver’s mouse and keyboard plug for possible broken pins. If the plugs appear normal then reinsert the plugs into their respective connectors on your PC.

2. Make sure the mouse plug is inserted in the mouse connector on your PC and the keyboard plug is inserted into the keyboard connector on your PC.

Compare the icons on both the cable and backside of your PC if necessary.

3. Check to see if the batteries in the keyboard and mouse are installed correctly. Make sure the polarity of the batteries corresponds with the polarity signs in the battery compartment.

4. Replace the batteries to make sure the batteries are not low in power. After replacing the batteries of keyboard or mouse, please also remember to set the ID. There is no need to reset all the ID’s. Simply reset one of them.

5. Check to see if the channel switch for the receiver, keyboard and mouse are set to the same channel. Try the alternate channel for the receiver, keyboard and mouse in case the initially selected channel appears to work improperly, other devices in the vicinity of the receiver may cause interference.

6. Please remember to set the ID when your keyboard kits do not work properly.

7. It is strongly recommended to place the receiver in front of the monitor in order to prevent signal disturbance from the monitor.

8. If your PC system’s BIOS setup has options for the keyboard or mouse - make sure they are set to default settings. If you are not familiar with the

BIOS, refer to your PC’s manual for more information.

9. If you have problems using the sleep button - make sure that the power management in your PC has been enabled both in the BIOS and in

Windows. For more information on your PC’s BIOS settings - refer to your

PC’s manual. For more information on how to enable the power management features in Windows, refer to your Windows manual.
