Reconnecting the Stowaway Travel Mouse
The above steps establish the Bluetooth wireless connection and bonding between the Pocket PC device and the mouse for the first time. The Mouse pointer should display and be enabled as long as the connection is maintained.
Despite a high degree of reliability, the Bluetooth connection could break for many reasons:
¾When the mouse is powered off, the mouse circuit will be powered off, and the Bluetooth connection will be lost.
¾As a power saving feature, the mouse will be automatically powered down after an idle period (when there is no activity for approximately 5 minutes).
¾When the Pocket PC device is turned off, the established Bluetooth connection will be lost.
¾When the Pocket PC device and the mouse are moved away from each other beyond the wireless range (~10m), the previously established connection is lost.
When any of these conditions occurs, the connection will be lost and the software will switch to waiting mode. To restore the connection, make sure the mouse and Pocket PC device are powered on and in range, then press a mouse button. See Reconnecting and Bluetooth Accessibility for further details. The connection should be reestablished within
Even when disconnected, the Pocket PC device and the mouse remain bonded. The mouse will only reconnect to the bonded Pocket PC device and the Pocket PC device will only listen to the bonded mouse. To break the bond, press the Discoverable button. Normally the bond will not need to be broken unless the mouse will be used with another Pocket PC device or another mouse will be used with the Pocket PC device. Therefore, please avoid pressing the Discoverable button during normal operation. If this has happened, you will have to establish a new connection as described in the Configuring the Mouse to Your Pocket PC Device section above.
