Getting Started Thank you for purchasing the VP4750 Bluetooth Touchpad remote by SMK-Link. It’s the perfect tool for giving better presentations or controlling your computer from across the room.

Troubleshooting The controller doesn’t work when I turn the power on. • If it’s never worked, you may need to insert batteries (p. 2) or pair the remote with your computer (PC p. 5, Mac p. 9). • If it worked 20 minutes ago, it may have gone into Sleep Mode to save power. To check, press the touchpad. If the green Activity LED does not turn on, slide the power switch to wake the unit back up. Movement of the cursor is jerky. • You may be too far away from the computer.
When the computer goes into sleep mode, the remote does not operate or operates erratically. • Deactive the Bluetooth connection, wait a few seconds and then re-establish the connection. The mouse moves too fast / too slow. • The speed of the mouse can be set in your Windows control panel or the Mouse preference pane of System Preferences. The Scroll Strip does not work. • Not all programs support scrolling. Try scrolling on a wired mouse.
