Follow these four simple steps to pair your Bluetooth headphones or speakers with your Windows computer using DG45.
Most Bluetooth headphones and speakers can connect to only one device at a time. If yours were previously connected to a phone or tablet, temporarily turn off Bluetooth on that device to prevent automatic reconnection.
Open Bluetooth Settings on Your Computer
Make sure DG45 is connected to your computer's USB port.
- Find the Bluetooth icon in the Windows taskbar.
- Right-click the Bluetooth icon and select Add a Bluetooth Device.
On the Bluetooth settings page, click Add Bluetooth or other device, then select Bluetooth.
Open Settings → Bluetooth & devices → Add device → Bluetooth.
Put Your Headphones or Speakers in Pairing Mode
Your Bluetooth headphones or speakers must be in pairing mode before your computer can find them.
Many headphones or speakers automatically enter pairing mode when powered on for the first time.
Simply turning them on may not activate pairing mode. You'll need to enter pairing mode manually.
The exact pairing procedure depends on your headphone or speaker model.
If you're unsure how to activate pairing mode, use the guide below to find instructions for your brand.
HOW TO ENTER PAIRING MODE →Depending on your device, the Bluetooth indicator may flash repeatedly or you may hear a voice prompt such as "Pairing" or "Ready to connect."
Select and Connect Your Bluetooth Device
Once your headphones or speakers are in pairing mode, Windows should display available Bluetooth devices.
- Wait for your headphones or speaker to appear in the Bluetooth device list.
- Click the name of your target Bluetooth device.
- Wait while Windows pairs and connects.
Make sure it is still in pairing mode. If it reconnects to your phone or tablet, temporarily turn Bluetooth off on that device and try again.
Confirm Your Bluetooth Connection
Once pairing is successful, your Bluetooth headphones or speaker should appear in the Windows Bluetooth device list.
Bluetooth Connected!
Your headphones or speaker are now paired with your Windows computer.
Check the audio output settings in Windows Sound Settings.
If you're using Skype, Zoom, or another app, check the audio device selected inside that app as well.
