computer. Most laptops have built-in Bluetooth. If there isn’t built-in Bluetooth on your computer, you need to plug in
an external USB Bluetooth dongle (find it in the Mini Seika) and install the appropriate drivers on your computer.
Here are instructions for setting up the Bluetooth connection between the Mini Seika and your computer.
Do not connect the USB cable to the computer (use the USB cable and power adapter for charging the Mini
Seika).
Turn on the Mini Seika and open the Mini Seika Bluetooth following the steps in section 2.5.
Make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on your computer. If you are using an external USB Bluetooth adapter, make sure
you’ve inserted it into your computer.
Double click the Bluetooth icon in the Windows desktop to open Bluetooth Manager, and search for Bluetooth devices.
It will take several seconds. When the search is complete, the Braille display Bluetooth name TSM appears in the list of
devices.
Select TSM from the list. If the computer doesn’t find the Mini Seika, please make sure you turn on the Mini Seika,
and then search again.
In the Bluetooth passcode edit field, type 0000.
