1 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the 2001ARF wireless keyboard and
mouse kit! This keyboard and mouse kit will finally free you of the constraints of
your desktop by providing a wireless connection between the keyboard or
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!
The 2001ARF 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 1.5 meters from the receiver, which itself has a
maximum range from your PC of around 1.5 meters. Because the 2001ARF kit
uses 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 2001ARF kit also offers even more extra functionality
by introducing 7 dedicated buttons for often used Internet browser functions as
well as a Sleep button. (Please note: The Internet keys work only under
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later version!). And last but not least, this
package also provides a special driver that provides unique shortcut functions.
In order to enjoy your 2001ARF kit to the fullest it is recommended that you first
read this manual carefully before installation of the 2001ARF keyboard and
mouse kit.

6 Troubleshooting
When the keyboard or the mouse doesn't work properly, 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 that 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.
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. It is strongly recommended to place the receiver in front of the monitor in
order to prevent signal disturbance from the monitor.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. If you have problems using the extra browser buttons and/or the special
mouse functions, ensure you have installed the keyboard and mouse driver
correctly as described in this manual’s Chapter 4: Software Installation.
Also check your hardware requirements meet those listed in this manual.
10. Use the mouse only on a clean, flat, non-slippery surface in order to ensure
12
smooth and accurate cursor action.
11. Keep all items away from direct sunlight, moisture, dirt, extreme heat and
abrasive chemical (cleaning) solutions.
12. Should the receiver, the keyboard or mouse become accidentally
immersed or splashed by liquids, switch off your PC immediately, unplug all
items and refer to your dealer for further assistance. In these cases please
refrain from using any of the items before consulting with your dealer!
If above troubleshooting suggestions still do not solve your problem then please
refer to your direct dealer for technical support.
