Getting Started
Your Kensington PilotBoard Laser Wireless Keyboard and Mouse are
configured to use out of the box. To use the basic functions, all you
need to do is install the batteries and plug the wireless receiver into
your computer.
1. Install the batteries in the keyboard and mouse according to the
images shown in the battery compartment on each device.
2. Plug the USB connector of the wireless receiver into an active USB
H
port on your computer. On a Windows computer, the computer
will display a Found New Hardware wizard the first time you plug
in the receiver.
The keyboard and mouse work within about 10 meters (30 feet) of
the receiver. If the keyboard or mouse is not working properly:
• Make sure that there are no obstructions between the device and
the receiver.
• Try plugging the receiver into a different USB port on
your computer.
Important: Computer User Health Information
In recent years, medical attention on occupational injuries has
identified normal, seemingly harmless activities as a potential cause
of a wide range of problems collectively known as Repetitive Stress
Injuries (RSI) or Cumulative Trauma Disorders (CTD). It is now
recognized that any repetitive motion my contribute to these health
problems. As a computer user, you might also be at risk.
By paying attention to the way you perform your work, use your
computer and phone, play sports, and work around the house, you
can identify the behaviors that may be putting you at risk. If you
experience pain, swelling, numbness, or weakness in your wrists
or hands (especially during sleep), see your physician immediately.
These symptoms could mean that you are developing a repetitive
stress injury that requires prompt medical attention. For more
detailed information, consult your doctor.
