letter, number or other character repeats when you press and
hold a key. The settings range is 1 (slow) to 10 (fast).

Troubleshooting
What should I do when I type on the keyboard and nothing
happens?
• Check that your PDA is charged.
• Make sure that your PDA is firmly connected to the Click N
Type.
• Verify that the keyboard driver is installed on your PDA.
• Remove the keyboard driver and then reinstall it. To do this:
1 Tap Start, then select Programs.
2 Tap File Explore, then select My Device.
3 Tap Windows, Start Menu, then tap and hold Click N Type
and select Delete from the drop-down menu.
4 Tap Yes to remove the keyboard software, or No to cancel
the operation.
5 Install the driver software, following the instructions in
“Installing the Driver” on page 3.
Does the Targus Click N Type require batteries?
No — the keyboard uses only a small amount of power, which it
draws directly from your PDA. Alternately, you can charge your
PDA while using the Click N Type by connecting an AC adapter
to the AC adapter port, located at the bottom of the keyboard.
What should I do if my PDA screen goes blank while I’m
typing? (For Pocket PC 2002 users only)
To keep your PDA screen from turning off during use, turn off
the backlight option. To do this:
1 From the Settings Menu, select Power.
