Power Management

Targus Wireless Keypad & Mini Optical Mouse
To save battery power, turn off the keypad and mouse while
traveling or when you’re not using them.
CAUTION: Removing the batteries will require you to
reset the ID code.
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 optical 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 of
the buttons.
• If your computer has a metal case that contains aluminum
or magnesium, use the optical 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.
• Never use the optical mouse on a glass or mirrored
surface as these surfaces will cause the mouse to fail
temporarily.
• To maximize battery life, use the optical mouse on a white,
or light colored surface. Dark surfaces cause the mouse’s
8
Targus Wireless Keypad & Mini Optical Mouse
LED to glow brighter, which causes the battery to
discharge more rapidly.
Comfortable Usage
Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to
nerves, tendons, and muscles may be related to repetitive
motion, an improperly set up work area, incorrect body
posture, and poor work habits.
To reduce the risk of injury, follow these precautions:
• Stand, stretch, and move around several times every hour.
• Switch hands while performing tasks. Use shortcut keys
to avoid repetitive or awkward mouse movements.
• Relax your shoulders and keep your elbows at your sides.
Adjust the keyboard’s position so that you don’t have to
stretch to reach it.
• Adjust your position so that you don’t have to bend your
wrists to type; avoid placing your wrists on a sharp edge.
If you feel discomfort or numbness in your hands, wrists,
arms, shoulders, neck, or back while typing, consult a
qualified medical professional.
Things to Remember

General
• You must reset the ID code every time you change the

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.
• Check that the receiver’s USB connector is firmly
attached to the USB port on your computer.
• Verify that the device drivers are installed.
• Make sure you have established a communication link
between the mouse and its receiver. See “Setting the
When I use the mouse, other wireless devices work
more slowly or fail temporarily – what should I do?
The mouse may cause interference with any cordless,
radio-based device that operates at 27 MHz, such as a
telephone, baby monitor, or toy. To reduce interference,
move the mouse’s receiver and the base unit of the affected
device as far away from each other as possible.
You can also reset the mouse’s identification code. The
mouse has 4096 identification codes that allow the mouse
and its receiver to operate without interference from other
radio frequency devices. To do this, see “Setting the
What do I do if the response time of the mouse is
slow or the mouse intermittently stops working?
Try one or more of the following:
• Increase the distance between the mouse’s receiver and
the rest of your computer equipment.
11
Targus Wireless Keypad & Mini Optical Mouse
• Increase the distance between the mouse’s receiver and
the base units of other wireless devices.
• Turn off any wireless devices and their base units that are
near the mouse’s receiver.
• If you are using the mouse on a metal surface, move it and
the receiver to a non-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.
• Replace the batteries.
I can’t use the mouse while another RF mouse is in
use – what should I do?
Reset the identification code. See “Setting the Identification
