System Requirements
The Micropad Wireless USB Keypad requires a computer with at least one
available USB 1.1
port. It will operate with any version of Windows that supports USB.
Before First Time Installation of the Dongle
Do not install the batteries into the keypad yet or be sure the power switch located
under the keypad is set to OFF.
Installing the Wireless USB Dongle
Plug the USB Dongle into an unused USB port on the computer. The computer
should recognize the insertion and automatically load the necessary Windows
drivers. The LED indicator on the Dongle should blink slowly indicating that it is
connected and has not yet found a wireless keypad.
Binding the Micropad to the Dongle
Next, insert the batteries into the Micropad then flip the bottom switch to ON.
When received from the factory, the Dongle and its keypad should b e pre-bound
together. This means that the keypad will work specifically with the Dongle that
came with it.
When the Micropad is switched on, if the Dongle has been paired with the
Micropad, the LED indicator on the Dongle will switch to steady state on. The
Micropad is now ready for use.
To Re-Bind the Micropad to the Dongle
(skip if the Dongle LED is steady-on)
If the LED on the Dongle does not switch to steady-on after the Micropad has been
turned on, the following steps need to be taken:
1. Check that your version of Windows supports USB. Early versions of
Windows 95 (before 2.1) and Windows NT do not recognize USB ports even if
your computer has USB connectors installed. If you are using Windows 95
you will need to upgrade to version 2.1 or higher (mu st say 'With USB Support'
on the CD) or to Windows 98, Windows 2000 or XP.
2. The Dongle and the Keypad may not be paired. To pair the Dongle and the
Micropad: (You will need a small pointed pin)
•
Press and hold the “Bind” button on the Wireless USB Dongle until the
LED indicator flashes quickly, then release the bind button.
•
While the bind LED flashes quickly, use a small pointed pin and press the
“Connect” button located on the bottom of the Wireless USB keypad for
about 1 second then release it.
•
The “Bind” LED light on the dongle should stop flashing and remain
steady-on indicating that it has been bound with the Wireless keypad.
•
The Wireless USB Keypad and Dongle should now be functional and
ready to use. Run a simple Windows application like “Notepad” and press
the + key on the keypad to see if a + character displays.
•
If the Wireless USB Keypad does not function, check that the batteries are
properly installed and the bottom power switch is on or retry the
installation procedure. If the Micropad still does not function, contact
Genovation customer service.
