RF 170 Instructions
SETUP
1. Remove the mouse’s battery door.
2. Insert two AA alkaline batteries (included) into the
battery compartment. The batteries face in oppo-
site directions. The direction of each battery is
marked.
3. Replace the battery door.
4. Plug the receiver into a USB port on your comput-
er. Do not place receiver on or in a metal cabinet,
or near other equipment and strong EMI sources.
SELECT ADDRESS
When delivered, your RF-170 operates on address
zero. You may leave it on address zero. However,
while on address zero, your computer may receive
and respond to signals from other Wireless
Computing products.
1. Press and release the black button on the under-
side of the receiver. The LED on top of the receiver
begins blinking.
2. If you purchased your RF-170 together with a
Wireless Computing keyboard, first select an
address on the keyboard. Refer to the keyboard
instructions for what keys or buttons to press. If
you do not have a Wireless Computing keyboard,
continue to the next step.
3. While the LED on the receiver blinks, press the
black SELECT button on the underside of the
mouse. This sets the mouse and receiver to one of
65,000 random addresses. The receiver LED blinks
for 30 seconds. This 30-second blinking cycle
starts again each time a product is selected.
OPERATION
The RF-170 Wireless Laser Mouse is designed to
operate reliably at distances of 100 feet (30 meters).
Operating range will vary depending on positioning of
the receiver, mouse, nearby sources of interference
and other factors.
Pressing a button, rolling the scrollball up/down, or
moving the mouse makes the LED flash green on
the top of the mouse, and the LED on the receiver
blink green.
When the mouse’s batteries are low, the LED blinks
in a characteristic on/off pattern. If you see your
mouse’s LED blinking when it is not being moved, lift
the mouse from the tabletop. If the LED continues
blinking, replace the batteries.
