2.3 Optional Software Installation

Please visit the official Vancer website for the latest software downloads and installation instructions. Note that some features like RGB lighting may be tied to DPI settings.

3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Basic Mouse Functions

  • Left Click: Primary action button.
  • Right Click: Secondary action button, often for context menus.
  • Scroll Wheel: Scrolls content vertically. Can also be pressed for a middle-click function.
  • Side Buttons: Typically used for forward/backward navigation in web browsers or customizable functions in games/software.

3.2 DPI Adjustment

The Vancer Gretxa mouse features a dedicated DPI button, usually located behind the scroll wheel or on the underside, to cycle through different sensitivity settings. The default DPI steps are 400, 800, 1800, 3200, 4800, and 6400. Each step may correspond to a different LED color for visual indication. Press the DPI button to switch between these settings to find your preferred sensitivity.

3.3 Polling Rate Adjustment

The polling rate determines how often the mouse reports its position to the computer. The Gretxa mouse supports polling rates of 125Hz (8ms), 500Hz (2ms), and 1000Hz (1ms). Higher polling rates generally provide smoother tracking and lower latency. Adjustment of the polling rate is typically done via the optional Vancer software.

3.4 Wired Mode

When the USB-C charging cable is connected to the mouse and your computer, the mouse will automatically switch to wired mode. This allows for continuous use even if the battery is depleted, and can be preferred for competitive gaming to eliminate any potential wireless interference.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning Your Mouse

Regular cleaning helps maintain performance and hygiene.

  • Exterior: Use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Sensor: Gently clean the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse with a cotton swab or compressed air to remove dust and debris.
  • Scroll Wheel: Use compressed air to clear any dust or particles that may accumulate around the scroll wheel mechanism.

4.2 Replacing PTFE Skates

The Vancer Gretxa mouse comes with high-quality PTFE skates for smooth gliding. Over time, these may wear down. An extra set of PTFE skates is included in your package for replacement.

  1. Carefully peel off the old PTFE skates using a thin, non-abrasive tool.
  2. Ensure the surface where the skates were is clean and free of adhesive residue.
  3. Peel the backing from the new PTFE skates and carefully align them with the recesses on the mouse's underside.
  4. Press firmly to ensure proper adhesion.

If you encounter issues with your Vancer Gretxa mouse, please refer to the following common solutions:

ProblemPossible Solution
Mouse not responding
