1. Press the + button on the transmitter/receiver.
The green LED on the transmitter/receiver flashes.
2. Without delay, press the ID Connect button on the back of the mini-mouse.
Communication is established between the mini-mouse and the transmitter/receiver. You can now use the

A green LED lights up on the numeric keypad; the keypad is l ocked numerically by default. Your numeric
keypad features two USB ports which you can use to connect USB peripherals such as a printer, digital
camera, webcam, external audio module, etc.
As the numeric keypad is not powered by an external power source, it may happen that
the keypad will not accept certain USB peripherals which require a great deal of power, such as some
vibrating game controllers for example (gamepad or racing wheel) or even some printers.
If you have Windows 98 SE installed on your computer, you must also install the USB drivers
for the numeric keypad:
- Click on Next in the dialog box that appears.
- If prompted by Windows to do so, insert the Windows 98 SE CD-ROM into your computer’s
CD-ROM drive in order to install the required system files.
