First use: Pairing between robot and USB dongle
The device driver must be installed before plugging the USB dongle into the USB port of your computer.
Refer to
Device Driver Installation.
When you purchase a Turtle robot,
the robot and USB dongle are not paired.
The first time you use it, you must pair the robot and USB dongle.
-
Plug the USB dongle into the USB port of the PC.
It is normal if the Bluetooth connection indicator of the USB dongle flashes slowly in blue.
Where is the Bluetooth connection indicator on the USB dongle?
-
While holding down the button,
turn the power switch to the right to turn on the power.
Press and hold the button until you hear a beep.
-
Bring the robot closer to the USB dongle. (Within 15cm between robot and USB dongle)
It is normal if the blue light on the head turns off with a beep and the Bluetooth connection indicator on the hips and the Bluetooth connection indicator on the USB dongle are steady blue or blink rapidly.
After you hear a beep, you can release the button.

- This process is called pairing.
- After pairing, one robot and one USB dongle pair with each other.
- Pairing can only be done once when connecting the robot and USB dongle for the first time.
- Since the USB dongle remembers the paired robot, it does not matter if the PC is changed.
- Since the robot and the USB dongle are paired only when they are close to each other (within 15cm), there is no problem to pair or use many robots and many USB dongles at the same time in the classroom.
- Pairing or connecting between a robot and a USB dongle is not related to software because it is performed by hardware.
- The reason for plugging the USB dongle into the USB port of the PC is to supply power to the USB dongle.
Pair the robot and USB dongle before class, and stick the number sticker to make it easier to class.
Re-use: USB dongle connection with robot
If it is already paired, you do not need to pair it again, but plug the USB dongle into the USB port of the PC and turn on the power of the robot.

- The pair of robots and the USB dongle do not need to pair again.
- When the robot is turned on, it is connected even if it is far apart. (Within 15 meters)
- Since the USB dongle finds and connects only the paired robot, there is no problem if you use a lot of robots simultaneously in the classroom.
Changing pair
- Turn off the robot that was previously paired.
-
Plug the USB dongle into the USB port of the PC. It is normal if the Bluetooth connection indicator of the USB dongle flashes slowly in blue.
