FAQs
Can I use this mouse on a glass desk?
While the sensor is high-performance, it may struggle on reflective glass surfaces. A dedicated mouse pad is recommended for optimal tracking.
Does this mouse work with iPads?
Yes, the HP 400 is compatible with iOS and iPadOS via Bluetooth.
How do I know when the battery is low?
The mouse typically features an integrated status light that will blink when the battery is reaching the end of its life.
Are the buttons programmable?
The mouse functions as a standard 5-button device; custom button remapping may be achieved through your operating system's mouse settings.
Is the scroll wheel silent like the buttons?
The scroll wheel is designed for quiet operation, though it may produce a slight tactile sound compared to the near-silent main clicks.
Troubleshooting
Mouse is not being detected by the computer.
Ensure the battery is fresh and properly seated. If using RF, try moving the USB receiver to a different port or closer to the mouse.
Bluetooth connection drops frequently.
Unpair the mouse from your device, turn off the mouse, and restart the pairing process. Ensure no other strong wireless interference is nearby.
Cursor tracking feels sluggish or jumps around.
Ensure you are using the mouse on a flat, opaque surface and that the sensor window on the bottom is free of dust or debris.
