Special Functions

USING THE WHEEL

Most applications use a scroll function to move the cursor through text. Your mouse’s wheel makes scrolling easier.

Important: Although

Universal Scrolling

is enabled by default in your mouse’s software, you might have to manually enable it in order to use scrolling functions in applications not compatible with Microsoft Office 97. See “Wheel Tab” on

Page 19.

Scroll

To scroll, rotate the wheel forward or backward. To select, press the wheel.

23

Special Functions

Auto Scroll

Your mouse’s auto scroll function lets you automatically scroll through a document without having to move the mouse or mouse wheel. You can select auto scroll using either of the mouse’s buttons or the wheel.

1. Make sure

24

Special Functions

Troubleshooting

If your mouse is not working as it should, these suggestions might help you eliminate the problem. If the mouse still does not operate properly, take it to your local

RadioShack store for assistance.

Problem: The scrolling functions of my mouse are notworking with my notebook.

Solution: Disable the trackball or touchpad in your notebook’s BIOS and enable the external port to successfully use all the mouse’s functions.

Problem: The mouse was not detected by my computer.

30

Troubleshooting

Solution:

• Make sure the mouse is securely plugged into your computer’s mouse port.

• If you connect the mouse to the USB port, check if your PC’s USB port is working properly. Look on the Device

Manager of System Properties. If there is a circled exclamation point through the icon, it means this USB controller has some problem. Try to remove and re-install it or contact your PC manufacturer’s technical support.

• If you connect the mouse to the USB port, check the version of your operating system. If you are not running

Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows ME, update your operating

Troubleshooting

31

system so the USB device can be enabled.

• If you connect the mouse to the USB port, make sure the USB port was enabled in the BIOS setup.

Problem: There is no pointer on the screen or the pointer is not responding to the mouse’s movement.

Solution: Your computer did not detect the mouse. Make sure your mouse’s cable is properly connected to the correct port.

32

Troubleshooting

ˆ

Care

Keep the mouse dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the mouse only in normal temperature environments. Handle the mouse carefully; do not drop it. Keep the mouse away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

Modifying or tampering with the mouse’s internal components can cause a malfunction. If your mouse is not performing as it should, take it to your local

RadioShack store for assistance.

Note: Your mouse is optical, and does not use a ball. You do not need to clean the mouse like a ball-type mouse.
