How changing modes affect the touchpad

The Mini Controller offers two operating modes:
Navigation mode for navigating menus and web
pages, and Pointing mode for moving the screen
pointer. Use the Touchpad mode slider to switch
between these two modes.

In Navigation mode, the touchpad functions as
a directional pad. Use the touchpad’s directional
arrows to move up, down, left, or right.

In Pointing mode, place your finger on the
touchpad surface and slide to move the pointer on
the screen.

Note that when you hold down the FN key the
mode switches (Navigation mode to Pointing mode,
or vice versa). As long as you hold down the FN key,
the modes remain switched.

Touchpad backlighting

In Navigation mode, the touchpad direction arrows and the word, “OK,” are backlit in green. In
Pointing mode, the perimeter of the touchpad is backlit in orange.

Help with setup

Problem: My Mini Controller does not work or will not connect.
Solution: Check the following:

• Is the Mini Controller on? Open the top cover to turn on the unit. The Battery Indicator Light
should be solid green when the battery is fully charged, and red when battery power is low.
If the Battery Indicator Light is red, you will need to recharge the battery. Refer to page 7 for
instructions.

• Is the battery installed correctly? Remove the battery cover and check battery installation. Refer
to page 6 for more information.

• Is your Mini Controller paired with the Logitech Revue™ Companion Box (sold separately)? To
pair the Companion Box with the Mini Controller, please refer to Setup with a Logitech Revue™
Companion Box on page 9.

• Is your Mini Controller paired with a Google TV–based smart TV system? Make sure the
Unifying receiver is plugged into a USB port on your Google TV. Try using the USB cable
extender to place the Unifying receiver farther away from your TV, which may be producing
electromagnetic interference. You may need to re-establish the connection between the Mini
Controller and its Unifying receiver:

1. Insert the Unifying receiver in a USB port on a PC that is connected to the Internet.

2. Download the Unifying software from www.logitech.com/unifying.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to reconnect the Mini Controller with the Unifying receiver.

4. When finished, insert the Unifying receiver back into a USB port on the TV. The connection

between the Mini Controller and Unifying receiver should now be re-established.

• If you are navigating through TV channels or web pages, make sure the Mode Slider is set to
Navigation mode by moving the slider left. To enter text or to move the screen pointer, move
the Mode Slider right to activate Pointing mode.

Logitech® Mini Controller

Problem: In a Logitech Revue™ setup, my TV, STB (set-top box), or AVR (audio-video receiver) is not
responding to the Mini Controller.

Solution: Check the following:

• Is the device IR controlled? Some home theater devices are controlled by line-of-sight, infrared
communication (IR), and others are controlled by high-frequency radio waves (RF). If you are
using the Logitech Revue Companion Box, this device only controls IR-enabled TVs, STBs, and
AVRs, and will not communicate with RF-controlled components.

• Is the IR signal blocked? Use the mini blaster (which comes with your Logitech Revue
Companion Box) to extend the range of the Companion Box IR signal.

• Is the mini blaster close enough to have a direct line of sight with your device? Try moving the
mini blaster closer to the device.

• Is the device still not responding? You may need to teach additional IR commands to your
Logitech Revue Companion Box. Launch the “Logitech Help and More” application from
Logitech Revue to find the video, “Teaching Infrared commands to your Revue.”
