MOUSE MAGNIFIER - CORDLESS CONTENTS: 1 x MOUSE MAGNIFIER - CORDLESS 1 x RECEIVER / BASE with power/video cable 1 x POWER ADAPTOR 1 x CARRY BAG LAYOUT OF THE MAGNIFIER The magnifier is a similar shape to a large computer mouse. Hold the magnifier as you would a computer mouse with the top control buttons at the end furthest away from you. Located on the left side of the magnifier is the power on/off button. This is a slide switch. Slide the switch forward for on and backwards for off. On the top of the unit there are four controls. The left button is the 'mode' button. This switches between the modes i.e. black text on a white background, white text on a black background or full colour. The central button is a plus and minus magnification button. This increases and decreases the magnification. To increase the magnification press the end of this button which is furthest away from you. To decrease use the end which is closest to you. The right button is the freeze frame mode. This will take a snapshot of the image you are currently magnifying/viewing. When turning the unit upside down you will feel a large cut out section which houses the camera for the device. Around this cut out section in each corner you will feel a guiding wheel. In the centre of the cut out section you will feel a ridged circle. This is the manual focus for the magnifier. You can use this to adjust the focus when the magnifier is being used to scan/read text which is further away from the magnifier, i.e. text on a black board. In the centre of the front edge you will feel a small DC-in hole; this is the socket for connecting the power adaptor, when you wish to charge the unit. Towards to back of the unit is the charging light. This will be red while charging and change to green when charging is complete. LAYOUT OF THE BASE The base of the unit comprises of the base, a mains adaptor and connection cable with a socket and jack. Holding the unit with the cable furthest away from you, feel in the middle of the base unit for a raised square. In the centre of this square is the receiver on/off switch. To switch the base 'on' ensure the switch is pushed down at the back, which will raise the front of the switch. To switch off the front should be flush with the surroundings and the back end should be raised. This needs to be switched on for the base to receive the information from the mouse. HOW TO USE THE CORDLESS MAGNIFIER 1. Insert the small end of the power adaptor into the socket end of the Y shaped power/video connection cable. 2. Plug the power adaptor into your wall socket. 3.
