Which Connection Mode Should I Use?

Which Devices Are Supported?

The A5 V3 works with compatible devices that support standard USB or BT mouse input, including desktop computers, laptops, and some tablets.

Game console compatibility depends on the console and game.

2. Battery and Charging

How Do I Charge the Mouse?

Connect the included USB-C cable to the mouse and a computer USB port. The mouse will begin charging automatically.

You can continue using the mouse in USB Wired Mode while it charges.

How Can I Check the Battery Level?

The battery level can be checked through MCHOSE HUB when using a supported connection mode. The mouse indicator may also show charging or low-battery status.

Note: Available battery information may vary depending on the connection mode, firmware version, and MCHOSE HUB version.

How Can I Extend Battery Life?

• Use a lower polling rate when maximum performance is not required.
• Use BT Mode for everyday tasks.
• Turn off the mouse during extended periods of non-use.
• Keep the firmware updated.
• Avoid storing the mouse with a fully depleted battery.

What Should I Do If the Mouse Does Not Charge?

1. Reconnect the USB cable.
2. Try another computer USB port.
3. Try another compatible USB-C cable.
4. Turn off the mouse and reconnect it.

If the mouse still does not charge, please contact MCHOSE Customer Support.

3. Wireless Connection

What Is the Difference Between 2.4GHz Wireless and BT?

How Should I Position the 2.4GHz Receiver?

For a more stable wireless connection:

• Place the receiver close to the mouse.
• Use the receiver adapter if included.
• Avoid placing the receiver behind metal objects.
• Keep it away from strong sources of wireless interference.

Why Is the Wireless Connection Unstable?

Possible causes include:

• Low battery level.
• The receiver is too far from the mouse.
• Nearby wireless interference.
• Obstacles blocking the signal.
• An unstable USB connection.

Move the receiver closer to the mouse, recharge the mouse, or test another USB port.

Can I Connect the Mouse to Multiple Devices?

You can manually switch between connection modes to use the mouse with different devices. However, only one connection mode can be active at a time.

4. Gaming and Performance

What DPI Should I Use?

There is no single best DPI setting. Use the following ranges as general starting points:

Your ideal DPI also depends on your display resolution, in-game sensitivity, and personal preference.

What Polling Rate Should I Use?

Polling rate determines how frequently the mouse reports movement and button data to the computer.

• 500Hz: Suitable for everyday use.
• 1000Hz: Recommended for most gaming scenarios.
• Higher Polling Rates: Suitable for compatible systems when supported by the A5 V3 model.

Higher polling rates may increase battery consumption and system resource usage.

Why Does the Mouse Lag at a High Polling Rate?

Very high polling rates may increase system load. If you experience frame-rate drops, stuttering, or unstable cursor movement:

1. Reduce the polling rate.
2. Connect the receiver or cable directly to the computer.
3. Close unnecessary background applications.
4. Test another USB port.

Recommended FPS Settings

Note: These are general starting points rather than required settings.

2. Check the battery level and recharge the mouse if necessary.
3. Reconnect the USB cable or wireless receiver.
4. Test another USB port.
5. Test the mouse in USB Wired Mode.
6. Restart the computer.

Tip: If the mouse works in USB Wired Mode, the issue may be related to wireless pairing, receiver placement, battery level, or interference.

The Mouse Disconnects During Use

• Check the battery level.
• Move the 2.4GHz receiver closer to the mouse.
