4. Operating Instructions
The aMZCaSE Mouse Jiggler features a single button for controlling power and switching between its three jiggle modes.

Mode Selection:
- Mode 1 (Green Light): Activated automatically upon connection. This mode provides a subtle, small pixel movement from left to right.
- Mode 2 (Blue Light): Press the button once. This mode provides small pixel movements back and forth within a small range.
- Mode 3 (Orange Light): Press the button a second time. This mode generates widely random mouse movements.
Power Off:
- To turn off the device, press the button a third time (after Mode 3), or long-press the button for 3 seconds from any mode. The indicator light will turn off.
The mouse jiggler operates by subtly moving the mouse cursor. This action is designed not to interfere with your normal mouse operation, allowing you to use your mouse flexibly even while the jiggler is active. It is recommended to use Mode 1 for a better experience if you need to actively use your mouse.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your aMZCaSE Mouse Jiggler, consider the following:

- Indicator light not on: If the light is off, the device might be powered off. Press the button once to activate Mode 1 (green light).
- Mouse movement not detected: Confirm the indicator light is on, indicating an active mode. If it's on, but no movement is observed, try switching to a different mode.
- Interference with normal mouse use: While designed not to interfere, if you experience issues, switch the jiggler to Mode 1 for the most subtle movement, or temporarily power it off when precise mouse control is needed.
