Getting Started
Congratulations on your purchase of an 800dpi RF (Radio Frequency) wireless mouse.
By using the advanced RF technology, a 360°of operation is possible, and no
line-of-sight is required between the receiver and the mouse. The 800dpi high
resolution will bring users the best operation accuracy and efficiency, especially for a
display at 1024*768 or higher. It has a double operation speed and only requires 1/4
space by comparing with a 400dpi mouse.

Precaution
! The optical mouse can not work on a glass or mirror surface. Avoid operating this
mouse on a glossy surface. otherwise, this mouse may not operate normally.
! For consideration of saving battery power, it is strongly recommended to operate
an optical mouse on a bright surface with fine texture to obtain lower power
consumption of the Agilent high illumination LED. A very dark surface will cause higher
power consumption.
! For optimal performance, place the receiver at least 8 inches or 20 centimeters
away from other electrical devices, such as the computer, the computer monitor,
speakers or other external storage drives.
! For a better transmission distance, avoid to use this device on a metal plate or
desktop because a large surface of iron, aluminum, copper and other metal will be a
shielding or ground to the RF antenna of the mouse and receiver. Operating on a metal
may cause the transmission distance shorter.
! If your notebook computer has a metal (contains Al or Mg) case, the metal
housing of the LCD panel will isolate partial radiation of the RF signal from the mouse.
This will possibly result in reducing the distance of transmission when you operate the
mouse right in front of the notebook, and the receiver is connected on the back of the
notebook. However, the RF mouse should work properly while you are operating the
mouse just beside your notebook computer.
