Setting up the Foot Mouse and Pedal
1) Positioning and attaching to your computer
Plug one end of the USB cable (which is marked “To Pedal”) of the Foot Mouse into the USB
socket at the front
of the Pedal (marked with “To Cursor Controller”) and plug the other end of
the USB cable from the Pedal into one of your computer’s powered USB ports. Your computer
may then ask you what type of keyboard has just been attached. If this is the case read the
installation instructions specific to Windows or Mac OS X below.
Important note:
Do NOT plug the Foot Mouse directly in the USB port of computer. The Foot
Mouse can only communicate with a computer through the Pedal case.
Important note:
For optimal performance, it is highly advised to use the foot mouse on a flat
surface with a mat such as a mouse pad to avoid the mouse skipping around the screen or not
working at all.
Place the Foot Mouse and Pedal on the floor in front of you in a comfortable position to view the
computer. Adjust the Foot Mouse’s strap and put it on your shoe or foot. Use one foot to control
the Foot Mouse and the other to control the Pedal. Some people may prefer to control the
hardware without wearing shoes for a more sensitive touch and feel of the buttons.
The Footime
™
Foot Mouse and Pedal work independently from other input devices such as
regular keyboard and hand mouse even if they are all plugged in PC at the same time. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in particular installation.
Users can use the Foot Mouse and Pedal with other input devices jointly in the ways they prefer.
For example, you can use a hand controlled mouse for cursor control while using the Pedal for
mouse clicks, which enables you to take advantage of the fast and accurate hand control without
getting stress or injury caused by repetitive finger motion.
Choose the way that works best for you!
