Common Issues and Solutions

Unable to pick up VerticalMouse
  Evoluent Mouse-Friendly & Left-Handed Keyboard � Hold the VerticalMouse with your fingertips.
� Rest the edge of your hand on the mousing surface.
� Relax your hand.
  Evoluent Mouse-Friendly & Left-Handed Keyboard � A wrist support may be used to lift the hand and enable the fingers to reach more forward on the buttons.

Unable to pick up VerticalMouse

  Evoluent Mouse-Friendly & Left-Handed Keyboard � Slide it without moving the pointer.

Pointer difficult to control
1. Go to Control Panel, Mouse, reduce the pointer speed one notch at a time and click Apply after every adjustment, until the desired pointer control is achieved.
2. Check the box for Enhance Pointer Precision.

Pointer moving by itself
A reflective surface may cause pointer drift. Put the VerticalMouse on a non reflective mouse pad, such as a fabric pad.

Zooming with scroll wheel
Earlier drivers require Ctrl for zooming with the scroll wheel.
The current driver does not need Ctrl.

Panning in CAD programs (middle click)
CAD programs typically use a middle click for panning.
1. When the Evoluent driver is not installed, the wheel button is the middle button.
Press the wheel to perform a middle click.
2. When the Evoluent driver is installed, select the "Wheel/Middle Click" function for any button to make it work as a middle click.
Do not select Auto Pan or Zoom.
3. In AutoCAD, the wheel/middle button is configurable at the command prompt.
Type mbuttonpan and set to 1 to enable panning. If set to 0, a pop up menu appears when pressing the wheel button.

Customizing Pro E for panning with middle click
In the current Evoluent driver, Customizing Programming for Different Applications, look for xtop.exe in the Pro E folder in Program Files.
In Pro E Wildfire 2.0, this is the default path: C:\Program Files\proeWildfire 2.0\i486_nt\obj\xtop.exe

Disabling button
Any button can be disabled by selecting the None function at the top of the pull down menu.

Top button working as right click in left hand model
Right click the mouse icon on the taskbar, click Close to shut down the driver.
Go to Control Panel, Mouse, uncheck the box for Switch primary and secondary buttons.
Go to Start, All Programs, VerticalMouse Manager, and click VerticalMouse Manager to restart the driver.
The current driver automatically sets the top button to left click during installation.

Pointer jumping to screen edge
The mouse is probably on a reflective surface. Put it on a completely non-reflective surface, such as a cotton mouse pad.

Pointer disappears temporarily
Install the driver update.

Slow system startup, CPU usage at 99%
Install the driver update.

Pointer sluggish or moving randomly in response to mouse movement
The mouse is probably on a reflective surface.
Put it on a completely non-reflective surface, such as a cotton mouse pad. If the mouse tracks properly on white printer paper, it is working properly.
The mousing surface must be completely flat for proper tracking.

Acceleration/precision/pointer speed/pointer control
When the driver is not installed, go to Control Panel, Mouse, Pointer Options, and check the box for Enhance Pointer Precision (Windows XP). The current driver includes built-in control of pointer precision/acceleration.

Using right and left VerticalMouses at the same time
Both mouses must be in USB ports.
1. Connect the first VerticalMouse to a USB port.
2. Install the driver update.
3. Connect the second VerticalMouse to another USB port.
4. Install the driver update again. When the installation wizard asks if you wish to install again, click Yes.

Left handed pointers
Go to the shareware site www.tucows.com and search for left handed cursors.

Some buttons do not work
Install the driver update.
The VerticalMouse must not be moved to another port after installing the driver, otherwise the driver will not load and some buttons will appear not to work.
If the VerticalMouse must be moved to another port, uninstall the driver and install it again after moving the mouse.

Vertical or Drag Scroll does not work in some situations
This is a limitation of Vertical or Drag Scroll. Use the scroll wheel or scroll bar in those situations.

Computer cannot to go into stand by
Connect the mouse to a USB port.
If problem persists, go to Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager, Mice, Evoluent VerticalMouse, Power Management, and disable "Allow this device to bring computer out of stand by".

Mouse too big
Use a wrist rest to lift your hand and allow it to reach more forward on the buttons. The VerticalMouse 3 is shorter for smaller hands.

Not passing Windows testing
When warning messages about the driver not passing Windows testing appear during installation, click Continue Anyway.
The driver works perfectly in the vast majority of Windows systems.
For maximum safety, cancel the installation, go to Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Restore, set a restore point, and install the driver.
If any problem occurs after the installation, the system can be restored to the point prior to the installation by using System Restore.

Install asking for Windows CD
Some systems preinstalled with Windows store the Windows CD files on the hard disk. A possible path is C:\i386 or D:\i386. If you are unable to see the folder because it is a hidden folder, type in the path.

Mouse Manager does not start even when clicked
Install the driver update. Corporate users may need to have an IT technician install the driver by using the necessary Windows credentials to bypass any group policy that blocks non-certified drivers.

Install stops before finishing
Install the driver update. Corporate users may need to have an IT technician install the driver by using the necessary windows credentials to bypass any group policy that blocks non-certified drivers.

Uninstall fails and driver update cannot install
