To connect your Logitech K350 keyboard, simply insert the included Unifying Receiver into a USB port on your computer. This guide covers the instant setup that usually works automatically, and the manual pairing process via Logitech Unifying Software if needed.
Insert the batteries and plug in the receiver
Begin by locating the battery compartment on the back of the keyboard. Insert two AA batteries, ensuring the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals align correctly. The Logitech K350 keyboard connects wirelessly using a Logitech Unifying Receiver, which is stored inside the battery compartment for safekeeping. Remove this small USB dongle and plug it directly into an available USB port on your computer. Ensure the receiver is inserted fully and securely to establish a stable connection.
Turn on the keyboard and test the connection
Slide the power switch on the top or side of the keyboard to the "On" position. An LED indicator will light up to confirm the keyboard is powered on. In most cases, the keyboard will automatically connect to the Unifying Receiver within a few seconds. To verify the connection, open any application that accepts text input, such as a word processor or web browser, and begin typing. Test various keys, including modifier keys like Shift, Ctrl, and Alt, to confirm all functions work correctly.
Pair with Logitech Unifying Software if it won't connect
If the keyboard does not connect automatically, you may need to manually pair it using Logitech Unifying Software. Download and install the Logitech Unifying Software from the official Logitech support website. Launch the software and follow the on-screen prompts. When instructed, turn the keyboard off and then on again to complete the pairing process. The software will detect the keyboard and establish the connection. If you lack the receiver entirely, you can still connect Logitech wireless keyboard k270 without receiver using Bluetooth. The Unifying Receiver can connect up to six compatible Logitech devices, such as mice and keyboards, to a single computer, making this software useful for managing multiple devices.
Install SetPoint for extra features
For customizing programmable keys and enhanced F-keys, you can optionally install Logitech SetPoint Software. This software allows you to assign specific functions to keys, adjust keyboard settings, and personalize your typing experience. Download SetPoint from the Logitech support page and follow the installation instructions. Once installed, open the software to explore customization options for your Logitech K350 keyboard.
Troubleshooting a faulty connection
If the keyboard still does not connect, check the battery orientation to ensure both AA batteries are inserted correctly with proper polarity. Avoid placing metal objects between the keyboard and the Unifying Receiver, as this can interfere with the wireless signal. Also, verify that the receiver is fully inserted into the USB port and not loose. If issues persist, try a different USB port on your computer. The keyboard uses Logitech's Advanced 2.4 GHz wireless technology for connection, which generally provides a reliable link within a reasonable range. If you need to connect a Logitech wireless keyboard to a different receiver because the original is lost or damaged, the pairing process differs from the standard setup. If you need additional help with the keyboard connection process, these steps should resolve most common issues.
