How to connect a bluetooth keyboard: instructions
Connecting an additional tool can be useful if the original key block is inconvenient, damaged, or simply does not respond to presses for other reasons. Step-by-step steps to connect a wireless keyboard to a laptop using Bluetooth:
- Turn on the key panel using special keys located under the LED block. If the keyboard can be turned on, the lights will begin to blink.
- Enable bluetooth on your laptop - this is done from the device manager. You can get into this manager by opening “Start” in the lower left corner and entering “devmgmt.msc” in the search bar and selecting the only option offered. In the manager window, select Bluetooth wireless modules from the list and right-click to enable it.
- After successful activation of the wireless module, a “blue teeth” icon will appear in the lower right corner of the screen. You need to click on the icon and select the device search function in the menu that opens.
- Once the keypad is detected, you need to pair it.
- Enter the digital code on the new keyboard, which will appear on the computer screen. This is a kind of way to check the functionality of the device and the strength of the signal.
- Start using it.
- Additional verification can be done using online services, where the signal flow from each key will be shown.
Why might it not connect?
There are several reasons why a wireless keyboard refuses to work:
- The signal is weak - this happens when the battery runs out. The solution is simple - replace the battery with a new one.
- The drivers were installed incorrectly. Usually everything happens automatically, but sometimes the user has to do such things on his own.
- System failure. The system does not see the keyboard and offers to connect it again. You need to repeat the entire bluetooth registration procedure again.
