8 Mouse Emulation Setup Programming and Usage
8.1 Hardware Installation
The Mouse Emulation uses two devices, the MK6i IR/Mouse Module and Dongle. The MK6i IR/Mouse Module is connected to the MK6i Network
using the cable attached to the IR/Mouse Module. (See section 3.1). The Dongle is plugged into the computer's USB port.
8.2 Mouse Initialization
The MK6i IR/Mouse and Dongle are uniquely linked allowing multiple users to be in the same area without interference.
Perform the following if link needs to be reestablished:
1. To establish this link, ensure the Dongle is plugged into the computer and the computer is then powered-up.
2. Ensure the wheel chair is turned off and plug a switch (1/8" mono or stereo) into the "Input" port of the MK6i IR/Module.
3. Press the (small) button on the Dongle; the LED on the Dongle should start to blink.
4. Hold the switch in the IR/Mouse Module closed and power up the wheelchair for 2 seconds and then release the switch. The Dongle's LED
should stop blinking and turn green for a moment to indicate that the link has been established.
8.3 Mouse Emulation Programming
The MK6i Driver control used with an expandable system can be programmed to use the mouse in any drive. All programming for mouse control is
in the "Performance Adjust" menu.
1. Turn the programmer on.
2. Scroll down to and select PERFORMANCE ADJUST.
3. Scroll down to MOUSE, scroll right to desired drive (D1, D2, D3, D4) and press Select.
4. Choose one of the following:
• 4-QUAD (generally used with 4-quadrant joysticks) - and press Select
• 3-QUAD (generally used with 3-quadrant head controls) and press Select.
