3.2Installing KeyM@n software in
Windows 98/ME/2000/XP
Current Cherry KeyM@n software on the
Internet
The Cherry KeyM@n software is constantly being
developed and updated. The current version can
be downloaded from CHERRY via the Internet:
http://support.cherry.de
2.2Connecting the receiver to the PC
Thanks to the mini USB receiver, unnecessary
cables from the USB port to the receiver have
been eliminated.
➤ Insert the receiver into any USB port of your PC
or of another device connected to the PC.
3Installation of the Cherry
KeyM@n software
The Cherry KeyM@n software is a powerful and
extensive program. By using this software, you can
assign links, programs, system functions and even
any text you desire to the additional keys of the
keyboard and mouse. You can thereby call up
frequently used functions by pressing a key.
➤ First connect the device and then install the
software.
3.1Is software for a keyboard/mouse
already installed on the PC?
1 Place the Cherry CD in your CD-ROM drive.
The CD-ROM starts automatically. The
Installation window is displayed.
2 If the CD-ROM does not start automatically,
double-click the CD-ROM drive in Windows
Explorer and then the Start.exe start file.
The Installation window is displayed.
3 Click on the Cherry product for which you would
like to install the software.
Installation begins.
4 Follow the installation instructions on the screen.

4.1Tips for charging the alkaline
batteries
Completely charging the alkaline batteries takes
approx. 4 hours. The charging circuit prevents
overcharging.
You must charge the batteries when the LED on
the receiver flashes (green = keyboard battery, red
= mouse battery).
d
Rechargeable alkaline batteries have the following
advantages:
•high capacity (1800 mAh)
•minimal self-discharge
•can be recharged at any time without the
memory effect
•rechargeable several hundred times
•high output voltage (1.5 V)
•environmentally friendly due to less waste
5Using the functions of the mouse
Prerequisite for optimal use
Using the mouse on a bright, textured surface
increases its effectiveness:
•optimum movement detection
•longer battery life
Reflective surfaces are not suitable for use with the
mouse.
5.1Using the increased power-save
function of the mouse
Charging of batteries in external charging unit
The use of an external charger is unnecessary as
the keyboard/mouse batteries are charged via the
charging cable.
Commercially-available chargers are not suitable
for alkaline batteries.
Usable battery type
The charging electronics only function with
rechargeable alkaline batteries (example: AccuCell
AC 1800). No other batteries can be charged in the
keyboard and mouse.
16
The power-save function increases battery life by
approx. 15 %. After 15 minutes of non-use, the
power-save function switches off the optical sensor
of the mouse. You must therefore press a mouse
button to switch it on. In standard mode, moving
the mouse is sufficient.
1 Remove the batteries from the mouse.
2 Keep the left and right mouse buttons pressed
simultaneously and reinsert the batteries.
Activation of the power-save function is
confirmed by 10 flashes of the optical sensor of
the mouse.
Deactivating the power-save function
The power-save function is deactivated when you
remove the batteries from the mouse. It must be
reactivated each time after the batteries are
removed.
5.2Using the transport function of the
mouse
The transport function of the mouse switches the
mouse off and protects it from unintentional use.
1 Keep the left and right mouse buttons pressed
simultaneously for 3 seconds.
The mouse is switched off.
2 Keep the left and right mouse buttons pressed
simultaneously again for 3 seconds.
The mouse is switched on again.

2 Navigate to the Wireless tab of the Cherry
KeyM@n software: Start/Settings/Control
Panel/Keyboard/Wireless, click on the
CONNECT button and follow the on-screen
instructions.

Press the button on top of the receiver until the
green and red LEDs flash.
3 On the underside of the keyboard, press the
CONNECT button in the battery compartment
with a pointed object until only the red LED
flashes.
A new channel is saved in the keyboard and
receiver.
4 Press the CONNECT button on the underside of
the mouse until the red LED goes out.
A new channel is saved in the mouse and
receiver.
Deactivating encryption
Encryption is deactivated when you remove the
batteries from the keyboard/mouse. It must be
reactivated each time after the batteries are
removed.
Encryption of the wireless transmission
The keyboard and mouse are ready for operation
after being connected and are unencrypted at the
factory.
You can conveniently activate encryption via the
Cherry KeyM@n software or on the receiver.
1 Move the keyboard and mouse close to the
receiver.
If you do not perform the following measures
within 50 seconds, setting is canceled.
7Setting the transmission
frequency
The frequencies of the keyboard and mouse must
match.
The devices are set to channel 17 at the factory.
You will find the frequencies which can be set in
12.5 "Transmission frequencies".
Small DIP switches
The DIP switches of the mouse in particular are
very small due to the compact size.
Use a pointed object, e.g. a watchmaker's screw
driver, to change the position of the switch.

mouse.
2 Change the position of the DIP switches 1 to 6
of the keyboard and mouse according to Table
12.5 "Transmission frequencies". The
frequencies of the keyboard and mouse must
match. Switch towards position digit = switch
position 0 (OFF), switch away from position digit
= switch position 1 (ON).
Small DIP switches
The DIP switches of the mouse in particular are
very small due to the compact size.
Use a pointed object, e.g. a watchmaker's screw
driver, to change the position of the switch.
1 Open the battery compartment of the keyboard/
mouse.
2 Change the position of the DIP switches 7 and 8
according to the table. Switch towards position
digit = switch position 0 (OFF), switch away from
position digit = switch position 1 (ON).
9Returning the devices to their
default state
8Setting the range
The default range is set to maximum. It makes
sense to reduce the range if you wish to use
several sets (keyboard and mouse) in a room, to
reduce power consumption or to increase security
against "listening in".
