Therefore when adding a new device to a system, it is neces- sary to put the receiver into Learn Mode and then press the Teach button on all the devices that will be used on the sys- tem.

After the Teach/Learn sequence is performed, the receiver and device(s) will remain synchronized after powering down and/or changing channels. It is only necessary to perform the Teach/Learn sequence when setting a device up for the first time or when adding additional devices to the system.

Determining Which Channel the 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 bot- tom of the mouse handset.

2.Count the number of times the green LED on top of the handset (or the red LED on the bottom of the handset) flashes. The number of flashes indicates the channel the mouse is using.

Note: If the mouse’s channel is changed when the computer is pow- ered 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 confirm the channel. 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 syn- chronization.

Changing the Channel the 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 the best reception, space the channels apart by one or more chan- nels. For example, setting the channels to “2” and “4” is rec- ommended over setting the channels to “2” and “3”.
