Operating Instructions
The M68 Pro 8K mouse allows for on-the-fly adjustments without the need for software. All settings are controlled via switches on the bottom of the mouse.
Adjusting CPI (DPI)
The CPI (Counts Per Inch) switch allows you to change the mouse sensitivity.
- Locate the "CPI" switch on the bottom of the mouse (refer to Figure 3).
- Toggle the switch to cycle through available CPI settings (e.g., 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400, 12800, 26000 DPI). The mouse's LED may indicate the current setting.
Adjusting Polling Rate (PR)
The Polling Rate determines how often the mouse reports its position to the computer. Higher polling rates provide smoother and more responsive tracking.
- Locate the "PR" switch on the bottom of the mouse.
- Toggle the switch to select your desired polling rate (e.g., 125 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 8000 Hz). The M68 Pro 8K supports up to 8000 Hz for ultra-low latency.
Adjusting Debounce Time (DT)
Debounce time is the delay before a second click is registered after the first. Lower debounce times can reduce click latency but may increase the risk of double-clicking.
- Locate the "DT" switch on the bottom of the mouse.
- Adjust the switch to select your preferred debounce time setting.
Adjusting Lift-off Distance (OFF)
Lift-off distance (LOD) is the height at which the mouse stops tracking when lifted from the surface.
- Locate the "OFF" switch on the bottom of the mouse.
- Toggle the switch to select between different LOD settings (e.g., low, high).
Charging the Mouse
The M68 Pro 8K Wireless Gaming Mouse features a built-in rechargeable battery.
- Battery Life: The mouse offers up to 90 hours of playtime per charge in Standard Gaming Mode. Performance settings can affect battery duration.
- Charging: Connect the CHERRY XTRFY EZcord charging cable to the mouse's USB-C port and the other end to a USB-A port on your computer or a USB wall adapter.
- Charging Indicator: The mouse's LED indicator will show charging status (e.g., solid light for charging, off when fully charged).
- Play While Charging: You can continue to use the mouse in wired mode while it is charging.
Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your M68 Pro 8K mouse.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the mouse. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no moisture enters the mouse.
- Sensor Care: Keep the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse clean and free of dust or debris for optimal tracking.
