WELCOME TO THE
ROLEE POLEE WORLD!
Congratulations on the
purchase of your new Rolee Polee handheld trackball. The
Rolee Polee is a type of trackball and therefore does
not require a mouse pad. It is also a handheld device so
it does not require a desktop or table top to operate.
With a desktop computer the Rolee Polee allows you to
kick back in your chair while you use your computer.
With a laptop or notebook computer, the Rolee Polee
gives you a wide range of positions from relaxing on the
sofa to lying down in bed with your laptop (sometimes
referred to as Bed Surfing). The Rolee Polee makes a
great accessory for a laptop computer.
GETTING STARTED
The Rolee Polee is a
USB device. The end of the Rolee Polee cable is a
standard USB jack. Simply plug the Rolee Polee USB jack
into any available USB port on your desktop or laptop
computer. The operating system (For example Windows 7*)
will automatically detect the Rolee Polee and install
the appropriate drivers and the Rolee Polee should be
ready for use in about 30 seconds.**
HOW TO
USE YOUR ROLEE POLEE
The Rolee Polee works
just like a
standard mouse with the following exception.
The trackball has 2 modes (mouse mode & scroll mode). To
toggle between mouse mode and toggle mode press the
“Scroll Mode Toggle Button” (see photo above). When in
“mouse mode” the trackball acts like a mouse. When in
“scroll mode” the trackball acts like a scroll wheel.
PRECISION TRACKBALL
The trackball
functions like a
standard trackball. If you are already
a trackball user, then you shouldn't need any practice.
If you are converting from a mouse, then you will have
to practice moving the trackball with your thumb until
you get used to operating a trackball.
SPECIAL WEB SCROLL BUTTON
This is the scroll mode/mouse mode toggle button. Most
people think this is a standard "Left" mouse button, but
it is not. It is a special toggle button that lets you
switch between mouse mode and toggle mode. In Mouse Mode
the trackball functions like a standard computer mouse
moving the cursor around the screen. In Scroll Mode the
trackball functions like a standard
scroll wheel that lets you
scroll up and down through web pages or other computer
documents.
RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON
This
is a standard "right" mouse button. When you press this
button it will open a little
pop-up menu with various
menu options depending on what program you are running
when you press this button.
FIVE FOOT USB CABLE
The cable is
typically over 5 feet in length which should allow you
enough slack for most installations. If you need a
longer cable, the Rolee Polee is compatible with most
USB extension cables.
STANDARD USB CABLE
The Rolee Polee is a USB device with a
standard USB
cable. So basically all you have to do is plug it in and
it works!***
TAKING
CARE OF YOUR ROLEE POLEE
To clean your Rolee Polee, remove the
trackball ring by
pushing down on it and rotating it counter-clockwise. If
the trackball ring is difficult to turn, you can stick
the end of a paper clip into one of the holes (dimples) located
on the trackball ring. The
paper clip should give your
more grip.
Once you remove
the trackball ring, you will notice that there are two
little rollers that rest against the trackball when it
is in place. Take a lint free cloth and wipe down the
trackball rollers. You will also want to wipe the
trackball itself.
Place the
trackball back into the Rolee Polee and then place the
trackball ring back in place. This time turn the ring
clockwise until it locks in place. |
