Is there a CD to help with installation? Windows7 PC recognizes scanner and bluetooth dongle but will not connect the 2 with pairing code.

There is no disc or drivers needed. It's all about Bluetooth and the process to get it to work with whatever operating system you'll use.

We are not using a Windows product to connect our wireless scanner to. However, it did take us a while to figure out how to connect. There is a printed sheet with instructions for a windows product and Mac product. Follow the step by step instructions exactly, even though they seem out of whack. That worked for us. David

Most likely you will need a Bluetooth transmitter USB dongle like the UD2 since most Windows 7 computers are not Bluetooth-enabled.

No software was required. I purchased a quality bluetooth USB device also made by creative, my computer detected the devices, installed drivers and I was set. (Win 7 Pro 64bit)

Actually, I am also. I have revamped the machine multiple times with new Windows installations and the system only recognized my Bluetooth mouse one time, at one Windows installation. It is currently not recognizing it.

I'm using Windows 7, 64 bit and was able to get it to work. It's not hooked up now so I can't give you any further help, sorry.

I have Windows 7, however it should work because it uses bluetooth technology to print wirelessly.

I assume you have already installed the Bluetooth adapter. If not, just insert it into an available USB port and the drivers should be loaded automatically. If the adapter has been successfully added, you'll be able to see an new icon representing Bluetooth in the notification area at the bottom right of your screen within the visible or hidden portion of this area. Right click on this icon and select "Enable Bluetooth Function" from the drop down list. From the same drop down list, select "Add New Connection". You will immediately see a dialog box actively looking for your Bluetooth enabled device. From there, you'll have to follow the instructions to pair this new device with your computer.

Don't remember if there was a small driver CD included. Doesn't matter for standard Windows OS, as it will find the driver autmatically on board or over the web. No idea if it will work on the device you listed. Sorry

Without knowing what hardware and operating system you're running, I can't give you a definitive answer. I know that on one of my Windows XP boxes I had to force a "discover new hardware" operation though I think the generic USB driver was all it used. I also had to go into audio properties and force the Rapoo Wireless to be my preferred audio output. Since upgrading all my systems to Windows 7 I haven't had any issue using the dongle on any of them; they automatically connect. You might (and again I don't know your hardware) check in your system BIOS or in Windows Device Manager to make sure your USB ports are not disabled. Also, try your dongle on someone else's computer; you MIGHT have a defective unit. Best of luck and I hope this was helpful.

I actually had real issues with mine. Not sure if it was just a bad unit or what, but replaced it with this one: ORICO BTA-402 USB Bluetooth 4.0 Micro Adapter Dongle Mini Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter Dongle With CSR8510 Controller and CSR Harmony for Windows XP Vista 2003 2008 7 and 8 32 or 64 Bit - Black which has the same chipset and features, and it works like a champ!

The elm327 should have come with a setup cd for your computer. Install that software and then pair the elm327 to you Bluetooth adapter and make sure Windows recognises both the adapter and the elm327 (this may require additional configuration in Windows settings) When that's done, open the software you installed and configure settings in the program so the program looks to the elm327 for incoming data. You may have to set your antivirus so this program has full access.

There is a CD with a preview of something I'd never use; gladly I found no need to use it. With Windows 7 (both x86 and x64) I had to go into the "add driver" area in Windows Device Manager for this device and choose "Generic Bluetooth Adapter" from the list of drivers. This comes built-in in Windows, but it doesn't get automatically matched up with this device. Once selected, things worked! The A2DP profile is not part of the default install, but automatically installed once paired to my headphones.

Always, always update the Bluetooth stack on your computer or device before returning anything, it it is not updated automatically and updates will likely fix any issues. I haven't been using mine with the dongle so I don't know about issues there

I have Windows 8.1 and the dongle works, no problems. I did need to install the software (CD was enclosed with the dongle), but it took just a couple of minutes and it has been working great!

Assuming you are connecting the scanner's dock to the PC with USB, it should pick it up automatically. Can you PC see the USB Bluetooth receiver/transmitter? It doesn't register on Windows as a bluetooth device that can be paired, rather it uses Bluetooth to talk across the air to the USB device, which presents data to the PC like an old fashioned serial scanner.

There's no bluetooth dongle included, so you'll either need to purchase one (for older hardware) or use them with a device that has bluetooth built-in.
