1
 
OVERVIEW  
Before starting the installation of the hardware and software for the  
ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse, please remove any drivers or software  
from any mice that were previously installed on your computer.  
This is to avoid any conflicts they may create, which could result in  
an improper installation of your new ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse.  
Please consult the documents that came with your previous mouse  
for proper instructions on how to uninstall the software and drivers.  
2
 
HARDWARE INSTALLATION  
IMPORTANT: Before connecting your mouse or installing the software,  
be sure to identify the type of mouse port you are using (USB or  
PS/2). Refer to the diagrams below if you have difficulty determining  
which kind of port your mouse uses.  
PS/2 Port  
USB Port  
IMPORTANT: Do not install the software until the mouse is connected  
to your computer. If you have not yet connected the mouse, please  
follow the Hardware Installation instructions.  
NOTE: Your mouse is functional without installing the software.  
However, we recommend software installation because the software  
allows you to program the mouse buttons for various functions, adding  
personalized efficiency and enjoyment to your computing experience.  
3
 
HARDWARE INSTALLATION  
Connecting the USB Mouse  
USB in Windows® 98, Me, 2000, and XP  
1. Make sure your computer is turned on before installing the mouse.  
2. Check “Add/Remove Program” in your control panel for any  
programs from your previous mouse. If you have anything  
installed for your old mouse, please un-install before continuing.  
3. Connect the receiver to an available USB port on your computer.  
4. A New Hardware Wizard will start automatically.  
NOTE: In Windows Me and XP, the New Hardware Wizard will complete  
the installation automatically. In Windows 98 and 2000, you will need  
to go through the Hardware-Wizard process, clicking the appropriate  
prompts as necessary. Windows 98 may also require you to insert your  
Windows 98 Installation CD into your computer to complete the install.  
5. When your installation is complete, insert the batteries  
into the mouse and the mouse should sync up with the  
receiver automatically.  
NOTE: If the mouse does not sync up with the receiver  
automatically, please see instructions titled “Synchronizing  
your Mouse to your Receiver.  
6. When your mouse is properly connected and functioning as a  
standard mouse, you can start the software installation for the  
extra button features.  
4
 
HARDWARE INSTALLATION  
Connecting the PS/2 Mouse  
PS/2 in Windows 98, Me, 2000, and XP  
1. Turn off your computer.  
2. Connect the USB-to-PS/2 connector to the mouse cable  
on the receiver.  
3. Insert the cable with the connector to the PS/2 (6-pin)  
mouse port on your computer.  
4. Place the batteries into the mouse.  
5. Turn the computer on.  
6. When the computer finishes starting up, it will automatically  
detect the mouse and make it functional.  
NOTE: If the mouse does not work, please see instructions under  
“Synchronizing your Mouse to your Receiver.  
7. When your mouse is properly connected, you can start the  
software installation.  
5
 
HARDWARE INSTALLATION  
Synchronizing your Mouse to your Receiver  
If the mouse does not automatically sync with the receiver, hold the  
button on the receiver down for three seconds. This will put the  
receiver into a non-ID (default) mode that is optimal when there is  
only one mouse and receiver present. You can confirm that you are in  
non-ID mode by checking the dim-light indicator on the receiver. If  
the LED on the receiver is dimly lit, you are in non-ID mode. If the  
light is off, try setting the non-ID mode again by holding the button  
down for three seconds.  
NOTE: If you have more than one ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse in the  
immediate area, you will have to change the receiver from non-ID to ID  
mode in order to eliminate interference. If you do not change to ID  
mode, you may experience cross talk with another wireless mouse,  
which will impede your mouse’s operation.  
Setting your Mouse to ID Mode  
1. To set the mouse to ID mode, push the button on the receiver  
for one second only. The light on the receiver will light brightly.  
2. Then sync the mouse to the receiver by pushing the sync button  
on the bottom of the mouse. Wait three to five seconds. The light  
on the receiver will go out and the mouse should now work  
properly.  
NOTE: Each time you follow these steps, the mouse will switch between  
channel 1 and channel 2 and randomly select a new ID. This allows  
multiple wireless mice to work in the same location without cross talk.  
If you experience cross talk with another wireless mouse, follow these  
steps to select a new ID.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION  
IMPORTANT: Do not install the software until the mouse is  
connected to your computer. If you have not yet connected the  
mouse, please follow the Hardware Installation instructions.  
If your mouse is not functional after following the Hardware  
Installation instructions, please consult the Troubleshooting  
section for assistance.  
NOTE: Your mouse is functional without installing the software.  
However, we recommend software installation because the  
software allows you to program the mouse buttons for various  
functions, adding personalized efficiency and enjoyment to your  
computing experience.  
1. Insert the CD into your computer.  
2. The computer will automatically detect the CD and begin  
installing the software.  
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.  
NOTE: If the computer does not automatically detect the CD,  
do the following:  
1. Click the “Start” button and then select “Run.  
2. From the Run dialog box, enter “<drive>: Setup” and click “OK.  
(<drive> being the letter of the drive that identifies your  
CD-Rom drive under “My Computer. For example, if the CD  
is in drive D, enter “D:\Setup.  
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

USING THE WHEEL  
Your new mouse has a wheel that can be used in two ways:  
• Rotate it to use it as a scroll wheel.  
• Click it to use it as a scroll button.  
IMPORTANT: Universal scrolling must be enabled in order to use  
scrolling functions in applications; however, universal scrolling is not  
compatible with Microsoft® Office 97.  
Scrolling  
Your ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse’s scroll wheel can be used to  
navigate most applications that use a scroll bar.  
• To scroll with your mouse, simply rotate the wheel on your  
mouse forward or backward.  
AutoScroll  
AutoScroll allows you to automatically scroll through a document  
without having to move the mouse or mouse wheel constantly.  
• To AutoScroll while in a document, click the AutoScroll mouse  
button. An origin mark ( ) will appear at your pointer position.  
To initiate AutoScroll mode, move your pointer vertically,  
horizontally, or diagonally away from the origin mark. AutoScroll  
speed increases the further the pointer is moved away from the  
origin mark. To exit AutoScroll mode, press any mouse button or  
rotate the scroll wheel.

USING THE WHEEL  
Zooming  
In some Microsoft Office 97 applications (e.g., Microsoft Word 97),  
additional zooming functions are available. You can use the  
zooming function to “zoom in”, or magnify, a page or section  
of a page; or you can “zoom out” to see more of the page (page  
displays at a reduced magnification).  
• To zoom in, hold down the Ctrl key while rotating the  
mouse wheel forward.  
• To zoom out, hold down the Ctrl key while rotating the

TROUBLESHOOTING  
If you are having any problems with the installation or operation of  
your new ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse, review the following  
section. If the problem is not referred to below, or the suggested  
solutions do not solve the problem, please contact our Technical  
Support staff.  
Why isn’t my pointer moving smoothly?  
The ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse works well on a wide variety  
of surfaces, especially those with textured and/or patterned  
features. Problems will arise however, if you attempt to use the  
ErgoFit Wireless Optical Mouse on mirrors, glass, or on some  
half-tone-printed surfaces.  
Why don’t the scroll functions work with my notebook?  
Check to be sure that you have disabled your notebook’s trackball,  
touchpad, or J-key in the BIOS; then, enable the external port so  
that all your mouse’s functions will be available.  
My USB mouse was not detected by the system and  
won’t work. Why?  
Please do the following:  
1. Make sure your USB mouse is completely plugged into  
the USB port.  
2. Check the functioning of your system’s USB port in the  
Device Manager page of System Properties. If there is a  
circled exclamation point through the USB port’s icon, the  
USB controller has some problem. Please try to uninstall and  
then reinstall it, or contact your PC manufacturer’s technical  
support department.
