Setup
• Connect the USB-C™ stick to a USB-C port on your computer. A status LED indicates the
activation, connection status and standby status.
• This product is a Plug and Play device. Bluetooth will be enabled on your computer. The
required drivers are automatically located and installed if necessary.
• Turn on your Bluetooth device and ensure that it is discoverable to other nearby Bluetooth
devices so that your computer can recognize it.
• Pair the device with your computer. The pairing procedure may vary depending on your
operating system and system requirements. Refer to the instructions for your operating
system or software.
Installing the drivers/software
To use the full range of functions provided by the USB-C™ stick, install the software
on the CD-ROM provided. Uninstall the pre-installed Windows
before installing the drivers on the CD-ROM.
• Insert the CD into the CD drive on your computer. If the installation software does not start
automatically, start it manually from the main directory of the CD ("Run setup.exe"). Follow
the onscreen instructions to install the drivers (a restart may be required).
• After you have installed the software, connect the USB-C™ stick to a USB-C™ port on your
computer and pair it with a Bluetooth device.
Tips and useful information
• The strength of the Bluetooth connection will decrease the further the Bluetooth stick is from
the connected device. Data transfer is generally slower at longer ranges. The connection will
be lost if the range is exceeded, or if there are obstacles.
• Connecting multiple Bluetooth devices to the same USB-C™ stick may lead to an unstable
connection. For example, if you connect a pair of Bluetooth headphones and another
Bluetooth device to the same stick, music playback may be intermittent.
