Bluetooth mode |
When to use this mode |
|---|---|
|
Software-managed Bluetooth mode |
Use this mode when you share a mouse between multiple computers. The software is configured automatically each time you start the computer. You can move your mouse and the Microsoft transceiver to another computer without installing the software or reconfiguring the device. |
|
Hardware-managed Bluetooth mode |
Use this mode when you use your mouse with one computer. Your transceiver behaves like a standard Bluetooth radio when you start your computer and results in no delay. |
