Wireless Mouse and Keyboard
Wireless devices allow you the flexibility to freely roam the classroom while continuing to control the computer monitor.
Wireless keyboard 
The wireless keyboard functions throughout the classroom, allowing the instructor freedom to edit documents, adjust URLs and the like from virtually any vantage point. The standard keyboard and mouse will remain in place, always available, at each instructor's computer workstation.
Wireless mouse 
- Set on any flat surface the Gyration mouse works like an ordinary desktop optical mouse with left and right buttons, and scrolling wheel
- Click on any button to turn-on the mouse
- The light on the handset will glow green to indicate adequate battery charge
- Held mid-air, the mouse can also be operated from any vantage point
IMPORTANT: In order for the wireless mouse to be an effective tool in the classroom, the unit must be placed back on the charging cradle at the conclusion of each class. Failure to do this will result becoming unusable for future classes.
If you do not see a green light on the top of the Gyration mouse, the battery is dead! To request a replacement, please contact the IT Helpdesk at x5770.
Mid-air operation 
- Activate the cursor/pointer by clicking the trigger-like button underneath the unit
- While holding this trigger, position the cursor to the desired position with subtle movements of your wrist, and then release
- It is not necessary to point the device at the computer, receiver, or the monitor
- Double-click the trigger to keep the cursor continuously active
- Click the trigger once again to stop
- Depress the trigger and drag to highlight multiple items
- Use your thumb to control the left/right mouse buttons and to scroll
