CRU Mouse Jiggler™ MJ-1

Quick Start Guide

Thank you for purchasing CRU’s Mouse Jiggler MJ-1. The Mouse Jiggler
MJ-1 prevents a computer from going to sleep while you work or play. This
plug-and-use device creates constant mouse activity so your computer won’t
go idle and trigger a sleep mode or screen saver, eliminating the need to log
in repeatedly.

Features

• No more screen savers - While the mouse is jiggling, a

computer’s screen savers and sleep modes are effectively disabled.

• Easy to use - No cables, drivers, or software are needed. Just plug
it in and Mouse Jiggler will immediately start to work.

• Very portable - Mouse Jiggler is about the size of a car key and is
every bit as portable.

• Widely compatible - Works with Windows, Mac OS, and other
HID-compliant operating systems.

1. Operation

Plug the Mouse Jiggler MJ-1 into a USB port on any computer.

That’s it! The Mouse Jiggler will disable screen saver and sleep modes by
automatically moving the mouse at regular intervals. You can continue to use the
computer while the Mouse Jiggler is doing its job. Remove the Mouse Jiggler from
the USB port and your screen saver and sleep mode settings will be enabled.

NOTE: You can easily tell how long Mouse Jiggler has been working
by watching its LED. The repeating blink pattern represents a four digit
number indicating how many minutes have passed. Each digit is shown as
a succession of 1 to 10 blinks, indicating the digits 0-9. Simply subtract one
from the number of blinks to get the correct digit. For example, the pattern [1
blink, 1 blink, 3 blinks, 8 blinks] represents [0, 0, 2, 7], or 27 minutes.

2. Finding Mouse Jiggler’s Serial Number in Windows

To find the vendor ID, product ID, and serial number of the Mouse Jiggler you have
plugged into your computer, follow the instructions below. The text displayed on
the final window contains all three pieces of information.

Menu, and click on Control Panel.

For Windows 8 and 8.1, press

WINKEY + X and click on Control

double-click on HID-compliant

systems. (Mouse Jiggler should be used only in compliance with applicable
workplace IT policies.)
