Frequenly Asked Questions
Unfortunately, you cannot use a PS/2 converter on every single mouse or keyboard available in the market. To be able to use a converter the device in question must have been designed with a special microchip inside of it. Most normal USB devices don’t have this extra microchip inside of them. You should check the technical specifications or package for your keyboard or mouse to see if you can use it on a PS/2 port.
Unfortunately, normal optical mice do not work on glass. This is because the light beam that the optical mouse sends out does not bounce back to the sensor inside the mouse – it just keeps on going through the glass. The only way to solve this problem is to use a mouse pad. If that is not possible it is advisable to invest in a Laser mouse or even better a G-Laser mouse.
On many occasions computer products stop working with what looks like no reason. More often than not, these issues are due to the software on the computer interfering with the normal operation of the mouse, webcam or keyboard. In such cases it is best to unplug your device for a few seconds and then re-plug it in. If that doesn’t solve the problem try rebooting the computer.
If you still experience any problems contact your local MEVA Service Representative.
The difference between a regular optical mouse and a laser mouse is the light used to track movement. A regular optical mouse uses an LED light in the optical engine, while a laser mouse uses a laser to track movement. The more dots per inch (dpi) a mouse can track, the more sensitive and accurate it is. A typical optical mouse tracks between 400dpi and 800dpi, while laser mice track more than 2,000dpi.
Neither is really better; it all depends on your needs and preferences. Unless you're a gamer or a graphic artist with a need for precise movement, you'll probably find a 2,000dpi laser mouse too sensitive. Many gaming mice, however, allow you to switch sensitivity levels so that you have precision when you need it but can revert to 400dpi or 800dpi for regular mousing.
Besides their tracking speeds, laser mice work on nearly every surface, whereas optical mice may experience trouble tracking on black or shiny surfaces.
This is not true. Keyboards and mice are very personal devices since they determine the way in which you work with your computer. Like all personal things they are subject to the tastes of personal users. Some users like their keyboards to be tough and noisy while others like them to be ultra responsive and silent. MEVA keyboards cover a wide range for every type of user.
