Frequently Asked Questions

What DPI settings does the J-Tech Digital V628 support?

Three: 600, 1000, and 1600 DPI, cycled with the onboard button. No software install is needed to switch between them.

Is this mouse wired or wireless?

Wired USB. There is no battery to charge and no wireless dongle, so it draws power over the cable and works as soon as it is plugged in.

Can the palm rest be taken off?

Yes, the palm rest is removable, which shortens the overall footprint if the default shell is too long for your hand.

Does it work with Mac and Linux, or only Windows?

It enumerates as a standard USB mouse, so basic tracking and clicks work without drivers. Check the product listing for the manufacturer's stated OS support.
