Introduction Zeekey™ for S60 is an application designed for use with S60 3rd and 5th Edition devices. It allows you to use a Zeemote JS1 controller in place of the phone keypad or touch screen.

Zeekey lets you use your Zeemote JS1 to interact with every function on your mobile device: navigate the phone’s menu system, play mobile games, watch movies, enjoy a picture slideshow, listen to your favorite playlist, browse the internet and more.

Enjoy the world’s best mobile gaming experience with the Zeemote JS1, featuring Zeekey!

Getting Started 

Installing Zeekey Zeekey for S60 can be installed just like any other applications that run on the S60 platform. From your mobile device: • Navigate to http://www.zeemote.com/zeekey to download Zeekey. From your computer: • Download Zeekey from http://www.zeemote.com/zeekey to your computer. • Use Nokia desktop software to install the application.

o For Windows users: use Nokia PC Suite to install the application. Visit http://europe.nokia.com/pcsuite for more information.

o For Mac users: use Nokia Multimedia transfer to install the application. Visit http://europe.nokia.com/A4423134 for more information.

Setting Up and Running Zeekey The first time you run Zeekey, you will need to set it up to work with your Zeemote JS1 Controller. Make sure your phone is charged, turned on, and Bluetooth® wireless technology is turned on. Next, turn on your Zeemote JS1 Controller. Check that the indicator light is flashing slowly.

When you first start Zeekey, you will see the Home Screen which shows the current controller status (“Disconnected”) and the active Key Mapping (“Standard”).

Select Controller to enter the Controller Screen and then select Search. Your phone will now search for your Zeemote JS1. Be patient; the search may take a few moments.

Once the search is completed, a list of devices will be displayed. Choose the device labeled Zeemote JS1. If you are asked for a PIN or a Passcode during the process, enter “0000”.

When the connection is established, the phone screen will briefly display the words “Connected to Zeemote JS1”, and the controller’s indicator light will flash slowly. The Controller screen will show that your device is connected, as does the Home Screen.

Zeekey is now set up to run with your Zeemote JS1. Move the joystick around and click the buttons to see what you can do!

The Auto Connect feature At this point, the option “Auto Connect” will be turned on. This means that Zeekey will automatically try to reconnect with your JS1 the next time you run the application. You can always turn this off from the Controller page.

Hiding, Disconnecting and Exiting In order to use your Zeemote controller to interact with your phone, Zeekey needs to be running in the background. Simply choose Hide to move Zeekey to the background and return to the phone menu system. You can always check the connection status and other settings by going into Zeekey from the phone menu system, or from the phone’s task manager.

To disconnect from the controller, go back into Zeekey, and select Controller. You will now be able to select Disconnect from the Controller screen.

You can also exit Zeekey from the Options menu on the Home Screen. Once you exit, you will need to restart Zeekey and reconnect with your Zeemote JS1 Controller in order to interact with your phone using the controller once again.

Reconnecting to Your Zeemote JS1 The next time you run Zeekey, you can simply choose Reconnect from the Controller Screen to connect to your Zeemote JS1 Controller. There is no need to search for your device again.

Backup and restore Zeekey does not support backup and restore functionality at this time.

Settings Settings for Zeekey can be changed by selecting Options > Settings from the Home Screen. There is currently one setting available: Controller Timeout.

Controller Timeout lets you control how long Zeekey should stay connected to an inactive controller. By default, if you don’t use your controller for 5 minutes, Zeekey will close the connection to save your phone’s battery. Note that your Zeemote JS1 will turn itself off if it is connected and has not been used for 20 minutes.

The Standard Key Mapping Zeekey provides you with a preloaded Standard Key Mapping, configured to work out of the box with most games and applications. In this mapping, the joystick is mapped to the arrow keys on the phone’s D-pad, and the buttons are mapped to other commonly used phone keys.

Customizing Your Key Mappings As described above, Zeekey comes with a Standard Key Mapping that will work well with most phone applications. Zeekey also allows you to create and edit your own Key Mappings. For example, many games and application have special keys designed to enhance their performance. If the default control scheme does not work well with a particular game, you can make a new Key Mapping that’s ideal for that game, and switch to it before you play the game.

Creating and Editing a New Key Mapping Select Key Mapping on the Zeekey Home Screen. This will show the list of Key Mappings currently available. You may do this at any time, regardless of whether the controller is connected.

Initially, only the Standard Key Mapping will be available. You may view this mapping, but you cannot edit or delete it. Choose Options -> Create New to create a new mapping and to bring it up in the Edit Key Mapping screen.

By default, your new Key Mapping will be the same as the Standard Key Mapping except for its name. You will now be able to customize your new Key Mapping. For instance, you may want to rename your new Key Mapping to reflect its purpose.

There are eight Zeemote JS1 Controller actions that can be mapped to keys on the phone:

• Joystick Up • Joystick Down • Joystick Left • Joystick Right • Button A • Button B • Button C • Button D

For example, you may want to map the Joystick Up action to the phone’s 2 key. To do this, select Joystick Up and then select Change -> Choose Key. Press your phone’s 2 key when prompted to do so. Joystick Up is now mapped to the 2 key on your phone in this Key Mapping.

If you do not want to define a mapping for a particular controller action, you can select No Action from the Edit Key Mapping screen.

Once you are done customizing your Key Mapping, it will appear in the list of available Key Mappings.

It is important to note that certain keys may not work when the slider is down. For example, keypad keys (like 5, #, and *) cannot be used on certain phones when the slider is closed.

It is also important to note that some handset keys may not be supported on all devices, including the Camera key, the Power key, the Volume keys, and some media control keys.

Activating a Key Mapping The active Key Mapping is the one that is currently being used to map controller actions to phone events. There can only be one active Key Mapping at any time. To activate a key mapping, simply choose Options -> Activate with the desired Key Mapping highlighted. The Active Key Mapping is shown at the top of the Key Mapping page. Note that new mappings are not activated by default; you need to activate them after you save the changes to your new Key Mapping.

Viewing, Editing, and Deleting Key Mappings To view the Standard Key Mapping, select Options -> View.

To edit any custom Key Mapping, highlight the Key Mapping in the list, then select Options -> Edit. You can now edit your custom Key Mapping as described above in the “Creating and Editing a New Key Mapping” section. Note that the Standard Key Mapping may not be edited. Also note that you cannot use the JS1 to interact with Zeekey while you are editing a Key Mapping.

To delete any custom Key Mapping, highlight the Key Mapping, then select Options -> Delete. If you delete the active Key Mapping, the Standard Key Mapping will be activated. Note that the Standard Key Mapping may not be deleted.

Troubleshooting 

Following are some possible issues and error messages you may run into, and what you can do to address these issues.

My JS1 is turned on but reconnect does not work.  Sometimes the phone’s Bluetooth radio does not connect successfully to another Bluetooth device. Simply choose Reconnect from the Controller menu to try again.

I am moving my controller, but nothing happens. Make sure that Bluetooth® is enabled on your phone. Also make sure the controller is turned on and connected - the indicator light should be flashing slowly. Check your active Key Mapping to make sure you are using the right controller actions. If your active Key Mapping involves keys that are covered when the slider is closed, try opening the slider. You can also try disconnecting and reconnecting as well.

I can’t map a controller action to the key I want. Not all keys are currently supported on all phones. Some keys that may not work include the Camera key, the Power key, the Volume keys, and some media control keys.

Some keys do not seem to be working in my custom mapping. On some phones, certain keys may not work when the slider is in the closed position. Try opening the slider and see if the keys now work.

I received an error message stating: “Unable to search for devices. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.” This message comes up during the Search process if Bluetooth® is currently disabled on your phone. Go to the Tools menu on your phone, and then select Bluetooth. The first option on this screen, Bluetooth, should be set to On.

I received an error message stating: “No devices found. Check that your controller is on and search again.” Zeekey was unable to find any Bluetooth® devices nearby that it would be able to connect to. Make sure that your Zeemote™ JS1 controller is turned on with its indicator light flashing quickly, and that it is within range. The controller will only work if it is within 10 meters / 33 feet of your phone.

I received an error message stating: “Unable to connect. Make sure your controller is on and Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.” Make sure that Bluetooth® is enabled on your phone. Go to the Tools menu on your phone, and then select Bluetooth. The first option on this screen, Bluetooth, should be set to On.

Make sure your Zeemote™ JS1 controller is turned on and its indicator light is flashing quickly, indicating that it is ready to connect. Consult your Zeemote JS1 Controller User Manual for further information.

I received an error message stating: “Connection to the controller was lost.” The Zeemote™ JS1 Controller may have been turned off, run out of batteries, or moved out of range while connected to Zeekey. Also, the connection to the controller may have timed out due to inactivity. Make sure the controller is turned on and the indicator light is flashing quickly, then choose Reconnect to establish the connection again.

I received an error message stating: “Unable to add a new mapping because the max number of mappings has been reached.” The maximum number of Key Mappings supported by Zeekey is 100, including the Standard Key Mapping. You need to delete some mappings before creating a new one.
