Pair a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard that is not discoverable

Separate keyboard power, Easy-Switch channel state, Bluetooth discovery, pairing code, and receiver-only issues.

Start here

Direct answer

The shortest reliable path.

Power or charge the keyboard, choose an Easy-Switch channel, and hold that channel key for about three seconds until its LED blinks rapidly. Then open the computer or phone Bluetooth settings, select the keyboard, type the displayed pairing code on the Logitech keyboard, and press Enter. A short Easy-Switch press changes devices; it does not put the channel into pairing mode.

Scope before steps.

Applies to

Logitech Bluetooth keyboards with Easy-Switch device channels and the manufacturer’s documented pairing flow.

Does not cover

Keyboards without Bluetooth, model-specific reset shortcuts, damaged keys, unsupported operating systems, or enterprise Bluetooth policy.

Procedure

Do this in order.

  1. 01

    Prove keyboard power

    Turn the keyboard on and charge it with the supplied cable or install fresh supported batteries as appropriate.

  2. 02

    Enter pairing mode on one channel

    Press and hold the intended Easy-Switch key for about three seconds until its LED blinks rapidly.

  3. 03

    Finish from the host Bluetooth menu

    Open Bluetooth settings on the computer, tablet, or phone and select the Logitech keyboard while the channel still blinks rapidly.

  4. 04

    Complete the displayed code

    If the host shows a numeric code, type it on the Logitech keyboard and press Enter, then confirm the LED becomes steady.

  5. 05

    Use a clean alternate channel for isolation

    If the expected channel will not enter rapid-blink mode, try another Easy-Switch channel or another supported host without erasing all pairings.

Stop conditions

Know when not to keep changing things.

  • Stop using a keyboard with leaking batteries, swelling, liquid damage, or unusual heat.
  • Do not apply undocumented reset key combinations from another Logitech model.
  • Contact Logitech when no channel enters discovery or pairs with more than one supported host after power is verified.
