Connecting the Receiver  

 

The Logitech Cordless Desktop uses digital radio technology. Communication 
between the Logitech Cordless Desktop – keyboard and mouse – and your computer 
is achieved with great reliability using radio waves. The Cordless Keyboard and 
Cordless Wheel Mouse do not have bulky cables that can get in the way, nor do they 
use infrared technology, which requires line-of-sight placement and usage. Instead, 
both the keyboard and mouse with radio frequencies as a means of communicating, 
which are picked up by the receiver and passed on to your computer.  
The receiver is connected to your computer via two color-coded cables. The cable 
with the orange end is for the keyboard, and it plugs into your computer’s keyboard 
port. (A 5-pin DIN adapter is provided should you need to plug this cable into an IBM 
AT keyboard port.) And the cable with the green end is for the mouse, and it plugs 
into your computer’s mouse port. A 9-pin serial port adapter is provided should you 
need to connect this cable to your computer’s serial port.  
 

CAUTION: 

Before installing the receiver’s cables, turn off your computer. 
Plugging or unplugging cables to your computer’s mouse port 
while the computer is on can damage the mouse port or your 
computer.   

 

1.  Make sure that your computer is turned 
 off. 

 

 

2.  Note the difference between the mouse 

and keyboard cable ends. 

The mouse 

cable end is green and has a mouse icon. 
The keyboard cable end is orange and has a 
keyboard icon. You will plug each cable end 
into different ports on your computer. (Also 
note the serial port adapter for the mouse 
cable and the AT adapter for the keyboard 
cable.)   

 

3. Connect  the  receiver’s 

green mouse cable to the 
computer’s 6-pin mouse 
port or its 9-pin serial port 
using the 9-pin adapter. 

Make sure to match up the 
mouse icon on the cable end with the mouse icon next to the mouse port on your 
computer. (Some computers may not have this mouse icon.)

   

If you are connecting the mouse cable to the mouse port, remove the serial port 
adapter. When using the 9-pin serial port adapter, connect the adapter to the 
computer port, tighten the thumb screws, and connect the mouse cable to the 
adapter. Be sure to line up the arrows on both the cable and the adapter.
