Fine Tuning Cursor Control
Since the optical air mouse uses standard Windows or Mac mouse drivers,
there are no additional drivers to install. Any settings that are available to a
standard desktop mouse (such as cursor tracking speeds and mouse double-
click speeds) are also available to the GO 2.4 GHz Optical Mouse.
Multiple factors will determine how you adjust the optical air mouse to suit
your personal preference including screen resolution and driver version. While
becoming familiar with your mouse and getting a feel for the "in air" method
of cursor control, Gyration recommends adjusting your mouse driver to the
following settings:
• Pointer Speed – Average. Some new users prefer this setting to be
slightly slower than average. Advanced users will increase the speed
so that less wrist movement gives them more screen coverage with
the cursor.
• Acceleration – Low or Off.
Note: Refer to your operating system's documentation for additional information on
customizing your mouse properties.
Note: To program the three programmable buttons on the mouse, GyroTools™
software must be installed.

GyroTools™ Software
GyroTools is a suite of software tools that enhance the functionality of the
optical air mouse. Assign your favorite tools to buttons on the optical air
mouse, and put advanced presentation techniques at your fingertips.
1. To install the GyroTools software, insert the GyroTools disk into your CD
drive and follow the on-screen instructions. If the program does not
start after a few moments, go to My Computer (located on your
desktop), click to your CD drive, and open SETUP.EXE.
Note: Once GyroTools has been installed, complete operating instructions are
available by accessing the online help.
2. Once the installation is complete, click on the GyroTools icon in the
Start menu to launch the GyroTools application.
3. Tools can be assigned to a double right–click, a right–click and hold or a
right–click followed by left–click. Tools can also be assigned to the scroll
wheel (e.g., double scroll–click, scroll–click and hold, scroll–click
followed by left–click). Tools can be assigned to three buttons below the
left/right buttons. There are other methods to activate tools, such as
screen hotspots, swipes and scheduled events.
4. To assign tools using the Drag and Drop Toolbox:
a. Select the tool group (such as General, Internet, or Media) located
at the bottom of the GyroTools window that contains the tool(s) you
want to assign.
b. Left–click and hold the desired tool.
c. Drag the tool onto the icon square next to the button that you wish
to assign the tool to and release the button.
