How To Pair Your Wireless Buzzers with the USB Receiver
August 15, 2024
Not all Affordable Buzzers tabletop models need to be paired with a receiver. Only buzzers with GRAY colored buzzer number stickers on the bottom of the buzzer require pairing.
Any other color number sticker will communicate with its receiver without requiring any pairing.
Buzzers with GRAY number stickers will require a USB receiver with pairing capability. Pairing receivers are marked with a black stripe across the back side of the receiver.
Buzzer Pairing Procedure
- Connect a USB pairing receiver to your computer via the USB port.
- Flip the buzzer power switch to the ON position.
- Press and HOLD the buzzer button for a few seconds until a steady green LED is illuminated.
- Release and press the buzzer button 2 or 3 times until the red LED flashes each time the button is pressed.
- This completes the pairing operation and your buzzer should now work with your application. It is always best practice to TEST YOUR BUZZER before putting it into use in a live competition or game.
