A Zebronics Wireless Keyboard and Mouse combo can connect either via a USB Nano Receiver (2.4GHz RF) or Bluetooth (BT), depending on the specific model.
🚀 Setup Guide
Method 1: Connecting via USB Nano Receiver (2.4GHz RF)
This is the most common and simplest method for combo units. The nano receiver is usually stored inside the mouse or the keyboard's battery compartment.
Insert Batteries:
* Open the battery compartment on both the keyboard (often requires 2x AAA or similar) and the mouse (often requires 1x AA or similar).
* Insert fresh batteries, making sure the polarity (+/-) is correct.
Locate the Receiver:
* Find the tiny USB Nano Receiver (dongle). It's typically inside the battery compartment of the mouse. Gently pull it out.
Power On:
* Turn on the mouse using the ON/OFF switch usually found on the underside. (The keyboard may not have an ON/OFF switch and may simply enter sleep mode when idle, or it may have a switch).
Connect:
* Plug the USB Nano Receiver into an available USB port on your PC, laptop, or compatible device.
* The keyboard and mouse should connect automatically (Plug-and-Play). You may see a brief connecting light on the keyboard/mouse.
Test:
* Try typing on the keyboard and moving/clicking the mouse to confirm they are working.
Method 2: Connecting via Bluetooth (BT)
This method is common for multi-device or dedicated Bluetooth models (like ZEB-K5000MW or ZEB-Companion 110).
Charge/Power On:
* Ensure the keyboard and mouse are charged (if they have a built-in battery) or have fresh batteries.
* Turn on the keyboard and mouse using their respective switches.
* Enter Pairing Mode (Keyboard):
* On the keyboard, you will typically press and hold a Function (Fn) key combination for a few seconds. Look for keys marked for Bluetooth, like:
* Fn + BT1 (or F1) for the first connection.
* The LED indicator on the keyboard should start blinking rapidly to show it is in pairing mode.
Enter Pairing Mode (Mouse):
* On the mouse, press the Mode Switch button (often on the bottom) or a dedicated pairing button until the LED starts blinking rapidly (often blue).
* Pair on your Device:
* Go to your computer's or device's Bluetooth Settings.
* Scan for new devices.
* Select the name of your device (e.g., "BT Keyboard," "ZEB-K5000MW," or "BT Mouse") and click Pair or Connect.
* Once paired, the blinking LED will usually stop or change to a solid light.
🛠️ Troubleshooting & Tips
| Issue | Solution |
Keyboard/Mouse isn't connecting (Nano Receiver) | 1. Check Power: Replace batteries with new ones. 2. Check Connection: Try plugging the nano receiver into a different USB port. 3. Re-sync (If model supports): Some models have a re-sync process. Try pressing a dedicated Connect button on the bottom of the keyboard/mouse, or for some combos, press and hold ESC + K on the keyboard, and Left Click + Scroll + Right Click on the mouse simultaneously for a few seconds, then plug in the dongle. |
| Keyboard/Mouse isn't connecting (Bluetooth) | 1. Check Pairing Mode: Ensure the device is still blinking rapidly (in pairing mode). 2. Remove/Re-Pair: On your computer, delete the keyboard/mouse from the list of paired Bluetooth devices, and start the pairing process again. 3. Check Computer BT: Ensure your computer's Bluetooth is turned on and working. |
| Lag or Delayed Response | 1. Distance: Move the device closer to the USB receiver or computer. 2. Interference: Move the receiver away from other large metal objects or strong wireless sources (like Wi-Fi routers). 3. Battery: Replace or charge the batteries. |
| Mouse Pointer is Jump-y | 1. Surface: Use the mouse on a proper mouse pad or an opaque, non-reflective surface. 2. Clean Sensor: Gently clean the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse. |
