Determining Which Channel Ultra Mouse is Using
The Ultra mouse has eight individual channels available to it. To determine
which channel a device is currently using:
1.
Press and quickly release the CHANNEL button on the bottom of the
mouse handset. Count the number of times the red LED on the bot-
tom of the handset or the green LED on the top of the handset
flashes. The number of flashes indicates the channel the handset is
using.
Changing the Channel Ultra Mouse is Using
When two devices are being used in the same proximity, each device should
be set to operate on a unique channel. For best reception, space the chan-
nels apart by one or more channels.
To change the channel:
1.
Press and hold the CHANNEL button on the bottom of the mouse
handset for 2 seconds. When you release the button, the mouse will
change to the next channel and the red LED on the bottom of the
handset and the green LED on the top of the handset will flash. The
number of flashes indicates the new channel the handset is using.
If a Teach/Learn sequence has already been performed, it will not be
necessary to re-synchronize the devices after a channel change.
Note:
If the mouse’s channel is changed when the computer is powered down or the
receiver is not connected, the devices will become unsynchronized. When the system is
running, click and release the channel button as described above to initiate a “channel
confirm” operation. The mouse broadcasts a message across all eight channels that
informs the receiver what channel it is currently operating on. The receiver then
automatically restores synchronization.
Tip:
If you are installing three or more devices on a single receiver, see “Installing 3 or
More Devices” on page 9.
