Madcatz R.A.T.6 black-red USB [9/40] First time setup and software installation

3. First-Time Setup and Software Installation

The

RAT6

can be used as a basic mouse when plugged into a PC via USB. However, if you would like to

configure button response, and the performance of the sensor, both the product driver and software

application will need to be downloaded and installed.

Connecting the RAT and configuring Windows

1. Make sure the PC is powered on.

2. Remove the label from the sensor aperture.

3. Plug the USB cable into an available port.

4. Windows will briefly install generic drivers for the RAT. It will then function as a basic 5 button mouse.

To make sure Windows is correctly configured, go to Control Panel > Mouse. Click on the Pointer Options tab.

Make sure that the Pointer Speed slider is set to the middle position and that the Enhance Pointer Precision

option does not have a tick.

Driver and Software Installation

In order to customize the product settings and make game profiles, you will need to download the software

application from Madcatz.com.

1. Go to http://madcatz.com/downloads/.

2. Select your operating system and product in the Software Download area. You will then be given a link

to download the software application.

3. Install the software application.

If this is the first time you have installed our software, Windows may

require you to install an update .net framework. This is normal.

4. Once it is installed, you will see a RAT6 icon on your desktop, and a RAT6 icon in the system tray of

your task bar.

If the system tray icon is not immediately visible, check the hidden icons by clicking the

vertical arrow next to the system tray.

5. The product is ready for customization.
