IMPORTANT SAFETY & HEALTH INFORMATION
WARNING: Do not shine the optical sensor on
the bottom of the mouse into your eyes!
Frequent use of a computer mouse may cause physical
injury. If you feel any pain, discomfort, numbness, tingling,
aching, cramping, stiffness or swelling in your hands, wrists,
arms, shoulders, neck, back, or fingers, you should stop
using your computermouse and seek the advice of a
qualified health professional. To lessen the chance of injury,
you should follow these general guidelines:
•Your computer keyboard should be directly in front of
you, and your computer mouse placed right next to it so
that you can use it with your elbow at your side.
•Yourcomputer mouseshould be close enough so that
you do not have to stretch to reach it.
•Your chair height should be adjusted so that your
computer mouse is at elbow height. Your forearm
should be parallel to the floor or slightly bent.
•Your arms, wrists, and shoulders should be relaxed, but
remember to maintain good posture and do not bend
your wrist, shrug your shoulders, hunch your back, or
twist your body.
•Hold your computer mouse with a light touch.
•Take frequent breaks and vary your tasks.

FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS
•Atek’s optical technology records approximately 1,500
motions per second, providing smoother, more precise
operation than traditional computer mouse technology.
With an optical mouse, your cursor generally will not
stick, skip, or jump.
•Your Super Mini™ Optical Mouse can be used on
almost any relatively flat surface. There is no need to
use a mousepad. Exceptions include glass, mirrors, and
some surfaces with complex graphic or color patterns.
•Your Super Mini™ Optical Mouse is basically
maintenance-free. There is no rubber ballor other
moving parts to clean. However, if you do not have a
clean work surface, then dust, dirt, or crumbs may
becomelodged on the edge of the optical sensor
opening on the bottom of the mouse. If that happens,
you can gently blow or brush away the offending
material with a soft cloth. However, do not insert any
objects through theopening.
•Your Super Mini™ Optical Mouse is a two button mouse
with standard, full functioning left and right button
controls. It operates with standard Windows®, Linux®,
andMacintosh®mousedrivers.

COMPATIBILITY & SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
The Atek Super Mini™ Optical Mousecomes with a USB
connector and a USB-PS/2 adapter. You can use the Super
Mini™ Optical Mouse withWindows XP®, Windows 2000®,
Windows NT®, Windows Me®, Windows 98®, Windows
95®, WindowsCE®, Macintosh® 8.6 or later, and Linux®,
operating systems, with the following limitations:
If you are usingWindows NT® or Windows 95®, youmust
use a PS/2 port.
If you are using Macintosh®, you must use a USB port.
Some people prefer to use a USB port because it is “hot
pluggable”, meaning that you can plug in and unplug the
mouse regardless of whether the computer is on or off.
Other people prefer to use a PS/2 port because they are not
using the PS/2 port for any other device.
Windows®users can program mouse button functions from
the standard mouse driver under Start | Settings | Control
Panel | Mouse.
Macintosh® users can visit the driver section of our website
at www.atek.com to download drivers for programming

INSTALLATION
•If you are using theUSB port, it is not necessary to turn
off your computer before plugging the mouse into the
USB port on your computer or into a USB hub. If you
are using thePS/2 port, you must first shut down your
operating system and turn off your computer before
plugging the mouse into the PS/2 port on your
computer. Also make sure you disconnect any mouse
that is currently connected tothe PS/2 port or to the
serial port.
•Locate the USB or PS/2 port on your computer. A USB
port is a flat rectangular port. A PS/2 port is a round
mini-DIN port.
•Plug the mouse connector into theUSB port on the
computer, or plug the mouse connector into the USB-
PS/2 adapter and then plug the adapter into thePS/2
port on the computer. Makesure the orientation of the
connector is correct –do not force the connector into
the port.
•Please note that the Super Mini™Optical Mouse does
not work with a serial (DB9) port and Atek doesnot
support the use of active signal converters such as
USB-serial converters.

•If you want to use theUSB connector butthe USB port
on your computer is already occupied, you can use the
mouse withmostUSB hubs. When using a hub, if the
mouse sometimes does not work, try unplugging and
plugging back in the mouse and/or the hub.
•Make sureyour workspace is “ergonomically” correct as
per the Important Safety & Health Information section of
this User’s Manual.
•When you install the mouse (i.e., when you plug in a
USB mouse or turn on the computer with a PS/2 mouse)
a wizard may prompt you toinstall a mouse driver. Your
Super Mini™ Optical Mouse does not come with a
special mouse driver but rather works with standard
Windows®, Macintosh®, and Linux® mouse drivers
usually built into your computer’s operating system.
Simply follow the prompts on your computer screen and,
if requested,select the default driver directory/folder to
install the driver. You may need to reboot your
computer after you install the operating system
driver. Macintosh® users can visit the driver section of
our website at www.atek.com to download drivers for
programmingmouse button functions or can usethe

light to brighten when you move the mouse.
