Gyration Ultra Cordless Optical Mouse
Welcome to a world of unprecedented freedom in surfing,
gaming, and mobile computing! Gyration’s Gyro technology
delivers the ultimate PC remote control device: the Ultra
Mouse. Gyration's patented motion-sensing and radio frequency technologies provide accurate and effortless cursor
control from anywhere in the room. Since the Ultra Mouse
works on a desktop as well as in the air, sit back and relax.
You have the power to control your multimedia and internet
commands in the palm of your hand.
Key Features
Installing and Charging the Batteries
Important: The Ultra Mouse must be charged for nine (9) hours prior to
its first use.
1
The Ultra Mouse comes with a NiMH battery pack already
installed, but you will need to remove the plastic tab located
inside the battery compartment. This clear plastic tab prevents the battery from discharging until you are ready to use
your mouse. To remove the tab and charge your batteries:
1. Press the Battery Release button at the bottom of the
mouse and lift the NiMH battery pack off.
2. Remove and discard the plastic tab.
3. Replace the battery pack by snapping it into place on the
mouse.
4. Connect the power adapter to the charging cradle and
plug it into a power source.
5. Place the mouse in the charging cradle. The cradle’s LED
Indicator light, located at the bottom of the unit, will
turn solid green and the LED Indicator light on the
mouse will faintly flash green while its batteries are
charging.
6. Once the batteries are fully charged, the LED Indicator
light on the mouse will maintain a steady glow and will be
ready for use.
Battery Tips
For optimal battery life, avoid using the mouse on dark-
colored surfaces.
When the battery drops to twenty percent (20%) of its
full charge, the LED Indicator light on the mouse will blink
intermittently when in use. To optimize the performance
of your NiMH battery, it is best to recharge it after every
day of use.
If a full charge is not required, you can remove the mouse
from the charging cradle at anytime. You do not need to
wait for the LED Indicator light to stop flashing.
To conserve power, the mouse enters a “Sleep Mode”
when it is left on for more than 24 hours. To awake from
Sleep Mode, click any button.

Using the In-Line Battery Charger
The In-Line Battery Charger is included with the Ultra Professional model or available for purchase as an add-on accessory.
To charge the NiMH battery pack
using the in-line battery charger:
1. Connect the power adapter to the
in-line battery charger and plug it
into a power source.
2. Place the battery pack in the
charger and the LED Indicator
light will turn solid green.
3. To eliminate the need of one additional adapter, install
the smaller connector of the charger cable into the back
of the in-line charger and install the larger connector into
the front of the charging cradle.
Using the Alkaline Battery Clip
The Alkaline Battery Clip is included with the Ultra Professional
model or available for purchase as an add-on accessory.
A standard alkaline battery clip may
also be used with your mouse:
1. Insert three AAA batteries into
the battery clip.
2. Snap the battery clip into place
on the mouse.
3. Install the in-line battery charger
cable.
If the alkaline battery clip is installed, the mouse enters Slee p
Mode when it is left on four or more hours. To awake from
Sleep Mode, click any button.
Note: The AAA batteries are not recharged when the unit is placed in
the charging cradle.

Setting Up and Synchronizing the Ultra Mouse and the Gyration RF Receiver
When installing the Ultra Mouse for the first time or when adding additional Gyration devices to the system, it is necessary
to perform a Teach/Learn sequence to synchronize the
devices. T o set up and synchronize the Ultra Mouse and the RF
Receiver:
1. Ensure the mouse is fully charged.
2. Connect the receiver cable into an available USB port and
power on your computer. Your operating system should
detect the new hardware device and initiate the installation procedure. Continue to follow the standard USB
device installation screens until installation i s complete.
3. Press and hold the Learn button on the receiver for two
seconds and then release it. The Status light will blink
slowly, indicating the receiver is now in “Learn Mode.”
4. Press and release the Teach button located on the bottom of the mouse handset. The Status light on the
receiver will blink rapidly for four seconds, then begin to
blink slowly.
Note: At this time, press the Teach button on any additional devices
(such as a keyboard, a second Ultra Mouse, or a GyroRemote).
5. To exit Learn Mode, press the Learn button on the
receiver for two seconds. Otherwise, Learn Mode will
automatically time out after five minutes.
If more than one Gyration device is being installed on the
same system, place the receiver into Learn Mode (ste p 3
above) and then press the Teach button on each device before
exiting Learn Mode. However, do not press the Learn button
on the receiver for each device to be added (see “Installing 3
or More Devices” on page 12).
When the receiver is put into Learn Mode, it erases its memory of previously learned devices and looks for new devices.
