Product Usage Instructions
- Follow the original manufacturer’s instructions for downloading the installation software and setting up your mouse here. Please Note: If you do not download the software pack, the Computer Mouse Interface will use your operating system’s standard mouse drivers. It will work as a switch access device for mouse clicks and cursor movements, but you will not be able to assign any keystrokes to the switch plate or switch inputs.
- Linux Users: You do not need to download the software. To make any changes to the interface, look under your Mouse Preferences in Linux.
- The Computer Mouse Interface requires 2 AAA batteries to operate (Not included). Use alkaline batteries only (e.g. Duracell or Energizer brand). Do not use rechargeable batteries or any other type of batteries because they supply lower voltage and the unit will not perform properly. Never mix old and new batteries together or different brands or types together.
- Remove the battery cover and screw. Set the On/Off switch located on the side of the switch to On.
- Next, plug the USB dongle into your computer’s USB port. The mouse should auto detect. Once detected, you should download the software pack for the full use of features. Once you have your mouse setup, plug your capability switch (Not included) into the appropriate jack on the Mouse.
- For easier conventional mouse use, we have added both aremovable T-handle and a joystick ball for additional ways to move the interface. They can be changed by unscrewing the handle as shown in photo No.1on the back page of this guide.
Please Note: On the bottom of the Computer Mouse Interface, there is an opening as pointed to in photo No.2 on the back of this guide. Do not cover or block this opening, as it is for the optical sensor of the mouse to detect cursor movement. Doing so will stop the cursor movement on your computer’s desktop.
Troubleshooting
Problem: The Computer Mouse Interface fails to operate, or operates
incorrectly.
- Action #1: Check the AAA batteries in the Computer Mouse Interface. The downloadable software monitors the battery life and alerts you when it needs to be changed.
- Action #2: Make sure that you have your mouse USB Dongle plugged into your computer properly, and your capability switch is plugged into the mouse all the way. There should be no gaps in the connection.
- Action #3: For additional troubleshooting help, check the original manufacturer’s instructions.
Care of the Unit
The Computer Mouse Interface can be wiped clean with any household multi-
purpose, non-abrasive cleaner and disinfectant. Donot use abrasive cleaners,
as they will scratch the surface of the unit. Do not submerge the unit, as it
will damage the electrical components.
Wireless!
Our mouse interface works in two ways: as a conventional mouse for cursor
movement or for computer switch access. It connects wirelessly to your
computer so you can use either the 5″ diameter built-in switchplate or insert
two of your capability switches into the device to mimic mouse clicks or
keystrokes. For easier conventional mouse use, we have added both a removable
T-handle and a joystick ball for additional ways to move the interface. Free
downloadable software available for configuring each button to be any
keystroke or mouse-click. PC, MAC and Linux compatible. Requires USB port.
Size: 5″Diameter x 1¼”H. Requires 2 AAA Batteries. Weight: ¾ lb.
