TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

• Make sure your Penguin is rmly plugged into your computer’s USB port
• Try using a different USB port. If possible plug it directly into the computer
i.e. not through any monitors/keyboards/hubs etc.
• Although your Penguin is plug & play, make sure your computer is up to
date with the latest drivers/operating software for pointing devices
• Check that the sensor on the underside of the Penguin isn’t covered and
has a clear line of sight to the surface below. Also check that your Penguin
has not been dropped which could dislodge the laser.

computer and the DC end is rmly pushed into the front of the Penguin.
