Hardware basics
The mouse features a charging port, an ON/OFF switch, and a push button used for channel switching and Bluetooth pairing. It includes channel status LEDs, left and right buttons, and a scroll wheel/button. The optical sensor, with DPI settings of 800, 1200, or 1600, is located on the underside. A battery charging indicator LED, situated under the scroll wheel, displays a solid red light when charging and turns off when the battery is fully charged. Connection is made via a charging cable to a USB charger or computer USB port. Channel status LED indications: a quick flash signifies pairing mode; a slow flash means it's waiting to connect to a previously paired device; when the LED is off, it indicates normal operation or a timeout in searching/connecting. To switch between channels, briefly press the BT button when all 3 LEDs are off.
