USER’S GUIDE
Selecting an
Address
The address on which your keyboard and receiver
communicate is pre-set at the factory. The factory
setting is address 1. In most situations this will never
need adjustment. However, if you are operating
several RF devices in close proximity, or there are
interfering sources, you may need to change the
address from the factory setting. We recommend that
you first try the system out to be sure that you need to
change addresses. There are 8 possible addresses to
choose from. The 8 addresses are selected thru 4
switches. Both the keyboard and receiver must be set
to the same address.
1. Open the battery door on the backside of the key-
board and remove the batteries. (See “Installing
the Keyboard Batteries” section on the previous
page). Notice the
Changing
the
Keyboard
Address
cutout hole in the center
of the battery compart-
ment, visible once the
batteries are removed.
2. Use a small pointed tool
(such as a pencil) to set
the switches that are
located inside the cutout
hole. Address selection is
made per the chart below
(which is labeled inside the battery door cover).

Changing
the Receiver
Address
1. Locate the slot cutout on
the back of the receiver
between the antenna and
the cable. The switches
can be seen inside the
cutout slot.
2. The receiver must be set to the same address as
the keyboard described above. The switches are
set in the same way as those on the keyboard
using the table above.
Power your computer back on.
Position the receiver as described in the next section.
Positioning
the Receiver
The receiver is multi-positional and the antenna can
be articulated. If you are placing it on a table or
desktop, it is best to stand the antenna up to minimize
any disruption of the signal by the table or desk.
When you are mounting or positioning the receiver,
be careful not to locate the antenna too close to metal
objects. The keyboard should not be placed too
close to metal objects.

VERSAPOINT RF WIRELESS KEYBOARD
The VersaPointRF Wireless Keyboard operates like a
traditional wired computer keyboard, except that it
requires no cable to your computer. That is, simply
point it in the general direction of the receiver and
type on it. There are, however, a few unique features:
Function
(Fn) Key
The VersaPointRF Wireless Keyboard achieves the
functionality of 104 keys with only 88 keys within a
very compact size. To accomplish this, some keys are
used more than once. The Fn key located at the
lower left corner of the key matrix and several other
keys have legends delineated with light blue letters to
indicate multiple function. For example, when the
Fn key is depressed followed by the F12 key, Insert
mode is toggled. This is indicated by the abbrevia-
tion Ins printed in light blue on the same F12 key.
Numeric
Keypad
Again to save space, the VersaPointRF Wireless
Keyboard has its numeric keypad built in, using some
existing keys twice. The numeric keypad is laid out
on the right side of the keyboard, in a format similar
to the keypad on a full size keyboard and has the
keypad functions marked in blue. To activate the
keypad, simply press the Num Lock key. The
indicator LED on the receiver will light and the
marked keys on the right side of the keyboard will
change to their keypad functions.

USER’S GUIDE
To indicate the status of the Num Lock, Caps Lock
and Scroll Lock keys, indicator LED’s are built into
the receiver.
Status
Indicators
Using conventional touchpads in battery powered
wireless keyboards, it has been an unrealized
challenge to get adequate range without excessive
battery consumption. By using Interlink Electronics
patented VersaPoint mouse technology combined
with advanced battery conservation methods and
sleep modes, the VersaPoint RF Wireless Keyboard
easily achieves excellent range and exceptional
battery life.
Keyboard
Range
Indoors operating ranges will be up 100’, and, under
ideal conditions, more than that. Naturally, indi-
vidual results will vary depending on how you use
your keyboard.
Both the keyboard circuitry and the VersaPoint
mouse make use of the latest advances in low-power
integrated circuit technology. Both also employ what
is known as “sleep mode.” When nothing is being
typed on the keyboard, the radio circuitry and the
keyboard processor go to “sleep,” consuming a mere
fraction of their normal power requirements, while
waiting for the next key press.
Battery Life
Under normal usage, battery life of up to 6 months
will be typical. Again, your results will depend on
how you use your keyboard.

Battery Life
continued
When it finally comes time for battery replacement,
you may begin to notice a reduction in range, typified
by lost keys at longer distances. In addition, the low
battery indicator located above the keys will illumi-
nate when batteries are approaching the end of life.
We strongly recommend the use of alkaline batteries
only. Please remember to dispose of depleted
batteries properly.

Moving the Total cursor control is available through the touch of
Cursor your thumb using the VersaPoint Pressure Pointing
Technology. Its intuitive and feels natural. Where
you place your thumb or finger on the soft button and
apply pressure dictates the direction of cursor move-
ment. Pressing harder causes the cursor to move
more quickly. It is easy for many users to place their
thumb at the center of the button and rock it in the
direction desired for cursor movement.
Click Like a normal mouse, the VersaPoint RF Wireless
Buttons Keyboard has left and right click buttons. These are
located next to each other on the upper left side of
the keyboard unit. In addition, two extra left click
buttons can be found on the forward edge of the unit
to enable simple index finger actuation.
