Bluetooth Keyboard PIN

Split from this thread.

I am having the same issue; namely, when I try to pair my keyboard (to a Win10 Mobile device) it sees the keyboard (Listing it as a "Bluetooth 3.0 Keyboard, Input") as available to pair.   When I touch on the keyboard to pair and it asks for the pin.  I do not know the PIN and there is no default PIN for the device.  (I attempted to pair the Keyboard to an Android device, the Android device generated a new PIN and I entered that and it works with that device).

It appears that I need to wipe out the Win10 device's previous association with the BT keyboard so that I can start the pairing process again, but I cannot find any documentation on how to do that.

    Thanks issue solved this the translation 

    To solve this problem with the PIN, go to the control panel, Devices and printers, and click Add a device: When you click next you will also ask for the Pin, below you will have a link to type on the device, just click, type and enter. I couldn't get the print because I had already connected :( Att,

    This is what worked for me. Very same issue. asked me for a pin code. push "connect button on keyboard. light will flash. On computer, click on keyboard to where it pops up the pin code. Type in 1234 into your computer then connect (on your computer - not the keyboard)  In between all this, the blue flashing light on keyboard stops flashing, click the black "connect" button on the back of the keyboard again, and type in the code 1234 that you set up on your computer. Once you do so, you should see that it has paired on your computer. I hope this helps.

    If you have an eight pin code requirement, entering four characters on both keyboards still will not work.

    For example:

    What follows are steps showing you how to do these varied or incomplete instructions:

    Click "Bluetooth and other devices" in Control Panel; OR Enter "Bluetooth" at the magnifying glass to simply select "Bluetooth and other devices... settings.* "

    Click the Plus Sign (+) "Add Bluetooth or other device."

    Click the appropriate:  "Add device."

    1. When you see the window/field asking you for a pin that you do not know (4 either/or 8 char)
    2. First type X characters into that field using the laptop keyboard:

                            12345678 Enter ()

    1. Secondly X characters using the external Bluetooth keyboard: 

                            12345678 Enter ()

    You're in buddy! 

    Unless your keyboard requires a 4 character pin, then you must go back and enter a four character pin on each keyboard in the sequence above.  For absolute morons like me, I have entered your instructions, particularly if you have had too much caffeine. 

    1. Enter the following in the field that asks for a pin that you do not know (either 4 /or 8 char)**
    2. First type X characters into that field using the laptop keyboard:

                            1234 Enter ()

    1. Secondly X characters using the external Bluetooth keyboard: 

                            1234 Enter ()

    *Unless your keyboard requires that you press and hold down a small reset button that puts the external keyboard into Bluetooth broadcast mode so it can be seen. Then follow the instructions above. 

    **Or try all zeros.
