Connecting your UBOTIE keyboard to Windows is a simple process that involves checking the battery, turning on the keyboard, enabling Bluetooth on your Windows device, and pairing the devices. To do so quickly, ensure your UBOTIE keyboard is charged, then power it on and activate pairing mode. Next, enable Bluetooth on your Windows PC and look for your keyboard in the available device list. Once you find it, tap on it to pair them. Then, test the keyboard to confirm it’s working properly.
If you’re having trouble with your UBOTIE keyboard connection, this guide will walk you through each step in detail to help you get your keyboard up and running in no time.
6 Ways To Connect UBOTIE Keyboard To Windows
Here’s what you can do.
1. Check Charging and Battery Health
Many UBOTIE computers use AAA batteries, and most of them need two. Check the battery level to see whether your keyboard won’t work or the link keeps dropping.
If the battery is low, the computer may not work properly, the keys may not be recognized properly, or the keyboard may flash red. If you see a red light flashing, it’s likely that the batteries need to be changed.
Remove the old batteries and insert the new ones, ensuring they face correctly according to the marks inside the battery compartment.
2. Turn on the UBOTIE Bluetooth Keyboard
After ensuring your computer has enough power, the next step is to turn it on. Find the power button. It’s generally near the keyboard’s edge or at the bottom. The button is “ON” when it is slid or pressed.
It’s possible to see lights that show the keyboard is turned up when you turn it on. Some types have a green light showing when the power is on and the battery is low. If the lights don’t come on when you flip the switch, check the batteries again or try getting new ones to ensure they’re not broken.
3. Activate Bluetooth Pairing Mode
You should put your UBOTIE keyboard in pairing mode so your Windows computer can find it after you turn it on. Different UBOTIE models have slightly different ways to turn on pairing mode, but most of them use one of these standard ways:
For most UBOTIE keyboards, you’ll need to hold down a certain button (often marked with a Bluetooth icon) for three to five seconds until you see a light blink. This blinking light pattern (often blue) means the keyboard can now be found and paired.
In some models, you may need to press multiple keys simultaneously, like Fn + C or Fn + the key that looks like a Bluetooth symbol. If you’re unsure about the right mix for your model, look in the user manual that came with it.
4. Enable Bluetooth on Your Windows Device
Now that your UBOTIE keyboard is in pairing mode, turn on Bluetooth on your Windows computer and look for connected devices. Here’s how to do it:
- Log in to Windows and open the Start menu. Click the gear icon to access Settings.
- Select “Devices,” then choose “Bluetooth & other devices” from the left sidebar.
- If Bluetooth isn’t already turned on, toggle it on.
- Click “Add Bluetooth or other device” and choose “Bluetooth” from the device options.
Your Windows computer will now search for nearby Bluetooth devices. Please be patient, as this may take a moment. Make sure your UBOTIE keyboard remains in pairing mode (the light should still pulse).
5. Pair the UBOTIE Keyboard With Your Windows Device
Your UBOTIE keyboard should appear in the list of possible devices after your Windows computer has searched for them. It will most likely be called “UBOTIE” or “UBOTIE Keyboard.”
To start pairing, click on the name of the UBOTIE keyboard in the list. This could take seconds, but Windows will connect to the computer. You may be asked to enter a pairing code, depending on the version of Windows you are using and the type of computer you have. If asked, use your UBOTIE keyboard to write the code that appears on your screen and press “Enter.”
When it works, you’ll see a message letting you know, and the keyboard will be added to your list of connected devices. If the connection works, the flashing light on your keyboard should stop blinking and either stay on or turn off.
6. Test the UBOTIE Bluetooth Keyboard
Once you’ve successfully connected your UBOTIE keyboard to your Windows device, you should test each key to ensure it works. Type a few lines in a text editor like Notepad or Word to ensure all the keys work correctly.
Pay close attention to the function keys on your UBOTIE keyboard, such as the media keys, volume settings, and any other unique keys it may have. For some keys, you may need to press the Fn key along with another key to make them work.
If some keys don’t work right, you may need to add software or drivers for your keyboard. You can find any extra software that might be needed on the UBOTIE website or in the instructions with your keyboard.
Why Is My UBOTIE Keyboard Not Working?
Here are some additional troubleshooting steps to try:
- Bluetooth connection: The UBOTIE keyboard is portable and connects with your computer. Ensure the Bluetooth link is strong before trying to fix your keyboard. It’s important to make sure that your keyboard works with your machine.
- Reset the keyboard: To reset the keyboard, turn it off, take the batteries out for 30 seconds, put them back in, and then turn it back on.
- Physical damage or debris: Check for any damage or junk under the keys that could stop them from working properly.
- Update your computer’s Bluetooth drivers: To get the latest Bluetooth drivers for your computer, open Device Manager, locate the Bluetooth connection, right-click it, and choose “Update driver.”
- Connect to a different device: To determine whether the problem is with the keyboard or your computer, try connecting it to something else.
- Hold the pairing button: If your keyboard has one, hold down the pairing button for 10 seconds. This will reset the Bluetooth link.
- Operating system modes: Some UBOTIE laptops have a shortcut key that lets you switch between Windows, Mac, and Android modes of operation. Check to see if your PC’s keyboard is set to the right mode.
If none of these work, a problem with your keyboard’s hardware may need to be changed or fixed by a professional.
