TARGUS WIRELESS

LASER

RECHARGEABLE

NOTEBOOK MOUSE

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Targus Wireless

Laser Rechargeable Notebook Mouse. This compact

mini mouse incorporates new laser tracking technology,

offering 20 times more sensitivity than a traditional LED

optical mouse. The images the laser receives are more

detailed, with higher contrast. The mouse can track more

reliably, even on reflective surfaces, and its small footprint

makes it ideal for portable computing.

NOTE: WHILE THE MOUSE IS FUNCTIONING, NO LASER LIGHT IS VISIBLE TO THE

NAKED EYE. BECAREFUL NOT TO LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE EMITTER HOLE

WHILE THE MOUSE IS ACTIVE.

bottom of the receiver.

Receiver

The receiver’s status light blinks when the receiver is

activated.

CONTROL PANEL.

Mouse Power Management

• To power the mouse on and off, slide the on/off switch

at the bottom of the mouse to the desired position.

• When power is on, the mouse goes into "sleep mode"

after 8 minutes of non-use. To activate the mouse,

press any mouse button.

Safety Measures

• Although this mouse is a Class 1 Laser Product and

safe for operation, avoid pointing the laser into the eyes

or looking directly into the laser emitter.

• Keep the mouse away from young children.

• Any attempt to disassemble, adjust or repair the mouse

may result in exposure to laser light or other safety

hazards.

Operating Hints

For optimal performance and RF reception:

• Place the receiver at least 8 inches (20 cm) away from

all electrical devices, such as your monitor, speakers or

external storage devices.

If necessary, use the supplied extension cable to keep

the receiver away from the computer. Plug the

receiver into the extension cable, and the extension

cable to the computer.

• Avoid using the mouse on a metal surface. Metals,

such as iron, aluminum or copper, shield the radio

frequency transmission and may slow down the

mouse’s response time or cause the mouse to fail

temporarily.

• The mouse will enter a suspend mode at the same time

your computer does. To activate the mouse press any

mouse button.

• If your computer has a metal case that contains

aluminum or magnesium, use the mouse to the side.

The display panel may interfere with the radio

frequency signal if you use the mouse directly in front

of the computer.

Troubleshooting

What do I do if the mouse does not work?

• Make sure that the polarity of the batteries is correct.

The positive (+) and negative (-) ends of each battery

must match the positive (+) and negative (-)

connections in the battery housing.

• Make sure that the batteries are fully charged. Check

your computer’s suspend mode settings, as the mouse

will not charge while the computer is in suspend mode.

• Check that the receiver's USB connector is firmly

attached to the USB port on your computer.

• Make sure you have established a wireless link

between the mouse and its receiver. See

“Synchronization” on page 7.

Targus Wireless Laser Rechargeable Notebook Mouse

I do not see the laser light when the mouse is

active.

• Unlike traditional optical mice, the light is not visible

when the laser mouse is active.

• To make sure the mouse is on and functioning properly,

move the mouse back and forth and check to see if the

cursor responds.

My mouse does not work on a mirror or glass

surface.

• Though rated for most of these kinds of surfaces,

occasionally there will be one such surface that will

cause the mouse to work improperly or not at all.

• If you are using the mouse on a reflective or mirrored

surface, move it to another surface.

What do I do if the response time of the mouse

is slow or the mouse intermittently stops

working?

• Metals, such as iron, aluminum or copper may slow

down the mouse's response time or cause the mouse

to fail temporarily.

• If you are using the mouse on a metal surface, move it

and the receiver to a non-metal surface.
