Connectivity between your Microsoft Bluetooth device and your computer depends on your Bluetooth transceiver.

  • If your device did not include a Microsoft Bluetooth transceiver, you must pair the device by using your computer’s built-in (non-Microsoft transceiver) and the computer’s Bluetooth software configuration program.

  • If your device included a Microsoft Bluetooth transceiver that has a First Connect button on it, you can use the First Connect button to start the Microsoft Connection Wizard. This will help you establish the Bluetooth pairing.

  • If your device included a Microsoft Bluetooth transceiver without a First Connect button, you must plug in the transceiver and then pair the device by using your computer’s Bluetooth software configuration program.

  • If your computer has a built-in, non-Microsoft transceiver, you can pair the device directly to the computer by using your computer’s Bluetooth software configuration program but without using the Microsoft Bluetooth transceiver.

  • Note: The power button on new Bluetooth devices like Wedge Touch Mouse and Sculpt Touch Mouse need to be pressed for about 5 seconds to start paring it to the computer.

Using a passkey

You do not need to configure a passkey when pairing a mouse to a computer. However, you must always configure a passkey when pairing a keyboard or number pad to a computer. The way that you specify a passkey depends on the Bluetooth program on your computer. If your Bluetooth program gives you a choice about how to create the passkey, let the program create one for you rather than creating your own or not using a passkey. When you type the passkey, you will not see feedback on the screen. After typing the passkey, you must press Enter on the keyboard or number pad to complete the pairing.
