How to Check the Keyboard Battery Status


In case any of the following problems is encountered, please attempt the corrective actions recommended for the appropriate case.

Keyboard and Mouse Not Working:

1. Are the batteries installed properly? Check the battery installation. Ensure the polarity of the batteries matches the + (positive) and – (negative) terminal markings on the battery compartment.

 

 

2. Check the receiver's connection. The receiver must be 8 inches (20 cm) from electrical devices. DO NOT remove the purple PS/2 adapter from the receiver's keyboard connector. Make sure the keyboard cable is connected to the purple keyboard PS/2 port.

 

3. Manually establish communicaton:

a) Press and release the connect button on the receiver.

b) WITHIN 30 SECONDS, press and release the connect button on the right side of the keyboard.

c) Press and release the connect button on the receiver.

d) WITHIN 30 SECONDS, press and release the connect button at the bottom of the mouse.

 


Cordless Device is not Detected:

  • Make sure the keyboard USB connector of the receiver (with keyboard logo mold on USB connector) is attached with the purple PS/2 adapter and plugged into the PC system’s purple PS/2 port, and the mouse USB connector of the receiver (with mouse logo mold on USB connector) is plugged into any of the USB port of the PC system. When installing the device on a PC, install the MouseWare or iTouch software and reboot the computer before connecting the device cable. The MouseWare and iTouch software CD is included with your wireless desktop package.
  • Make sure the PS/2 port or USB port has the proper configuration. Refer to your computer documentation for the correct port configuration.
  • You may have other system devices (for example, a modem card) that conflict with the device. Check the IRQ/address settings of these devices for conflicts, and change the settings as required. If the problem persists, please contact technical support.

Cordless Device is Detected but does not Work:

  • Make sure you have connected the receiver correctly. The receiver cable goes into the computer's PS/2 port or USB port. For optimal performance, place the receiver at least 8 inches away from other electrical devices, such as the computer, the computer monitor, or external storage drives.
  • Make sure you have installed the batteries correctly. Check to make sure the batteries you have installed are good and not dead. Try the batteries in another device.
  • Establish communication between the receiver and the mouse or keyboard. Press the Connect button on the receiver first. Within 30 seconds, press the Connect button of the mouse or keyboard. Repeat the same sequence for the other device if needed.
  • If you are working on a metallic surface, try moving the receiver closer to the mouse or keyboard.
  • Try unplugging then reconnecting the receiver cables to the computer. Make sure the computer is turned off when unplugging and plugging the keyboard receiver connector with the purple PS/2 adapter.

Cordless Device Works Erratically:

  • Ensure that the batteries are good and not drained.
  • Ensure that the receiver is located at least 8 inches away from other electrical devices such as the computer, the monitor or speakers. Refer to the section on Environment for more information.
  • If the problem is RF interference and cannot be rectified by relocating the receiver, then re-do the connection procedure: press the connect button on the receiver, then within 30 seconds press the connect button on the problem device (either keyboard or mouse). Re-check the performance.
  • If you cannot avoid working on a metal surface, refer to the Environment section for possible solutions.
  • You can check the mouse battery status in the Mouse Properties Control Panel (see section How to Check the Mouse Battery Status below) and the keyboard battery status in the iTouch Configuration (see section How to Check the Keyboard Battery Status below).
