how to disable the scroll function when I use the tmux?

Tmux uses the scroll to find the history commands which bothers me too much. How to disable this function? I have tried to use "set mouse on", but it gives me another problem. I just want to disable my mouse all the time, with the scroll leaves its original usage.

If you are using iterm2 or similar terminal, just uncheck the following functionality.
Scroll wheel sends arrow keys when in alternate screen mode.

Tmux no longer has multiple options for mouse mode, there is just mouse on or off (assuming a recent version of tmux).

If you want to use the mouse, including the scroll wheel, for anything except scrolling history, mouse mode must be on (set -g mouse on). Turning on the mouse should not prevent you from not using your mouse to accomplish things; the default tmux key functionality remains.
