Important Bluetooth Installation Instructions
Much newer PCs, Mac’s and laptops have a built-in Bluetooth adapter and do not require the use of a third-party Bluetooth adapter. If your computer has integrated Bluetooth and it is turned on– when you go to your Task Bar (or System Preferences on a Mac) you should see the Bluetooth Device icon, which looks like this:. If you do not see this icon on the Task Bar or Bluetooth Devices in the Control Panel (or System Preferences), then your computer does not have a Bluetooth Receiver or it is turned off. Check manufacturer documentation for instructions to turn Wireless support Off/On. Many laptops have a slider switch for this purpose.If you do not have an integrated Bluetooth adapter, you may purchase our optional Bluetooth dongle, available at http://www.goldtouch.comDo not use our optional Bluetooth Dongle adapter if your computer or laptop already has a Bluetooth Receiver.To determine if your computer has an embedded Bluetooth adapter, please refer to the manufacturer’s documentation.

The FlexMouse at a Glance
Top View — Attachment is shown to the right of the mouse.
Side View — All attachments are shown behind the mouse.
The Design
The FlexMouse takes the guesswork out of selecting the perfect mouse. Four interchangeable mousing backs, ranging from S to XL, will fit the smallest to the largest hands.The additional attachments do not have to go unused. Smaller attachments can be used for tasks that require more precision, whereas larger attachments can be used for general use to maximize comfort.Neutral hand posture, also known as the position of “repose” is the most relaxed and unstrained position for the hand. In this position, little muscle activity is present in the hand, wrist, or forearm. The position of repose for the hand is with fingers slightly cupped and splayed, with the thumb forming a “C” shape with the index finger. The amount of pronation varies within individuals but should be in the range of 10 to 45 degrees from the horizontal. This position is easily observed in a weightless environment, for example, while the hand is relaxed and suspended in a bath or swimming pool.The design elements of the top of the mouse are tailored to support the hand, wrist, and forearm in a natural position, minimizing pronation and supporting the hand in a natural, at-rest position.The design elements of the front of the mouse are tailored to support the natural curvature of the fingers in a relaxed, non-flexed state.
