The Logitech® Unifying receiver
Plug it. Forget it. Add to it.
Your new Logitech product ships with
a Unifying receiver. Did you know you can
add a compatible Logitech wireless device
that uses the same receiver as your current
Logitech Unifying product?
Are you Unifying-ready?
If you have a Logitech wireless device
that’s Unifying-ready, you can pair it with
additional Unifying devices. Just look
for the orange Unifying logo on the new
device or its packaging. Build your ideal
combo. Add something. Replace something.
It’s easy, and you’ll use only one USB port
for up to six devices.
Getting started is easy
If you’re ready to pair your device(s)
via Unifying, here’s what you need to do:
1. Make sure your Unifying receiver
is plugged in.
2. If you haven’t already, download and install
the Logitech software for your keyboard
(see “Software for your keyboard”).
3. Start the software and follow
the on-screen instructions to pair the new
wireless device with your existing Unifying
receiver.
