# Pairing your EEG headset with a USB receiver dongle If you’re in an environment with high levels of Bluetooth interference, we recommend using a USB receiver dongle to pair with your headset. \ \ To pair your headset with a USB receiver dongle: ‌ 1. Plug in the USB receiver dongle to your computer’s USB port. The LED above the power symbol should start blinking (about once a second) to show that it is broadcasting. 2. Turn your headset on. When you turn your headset on, a second LED will light up, and the LED above the power symbol will become fainter and flicker more rapidly. When your USB receiver dongle does this, it is paired with your headset. 3. You can now connect your headset to EmotivPRO. If you experience any issues when pairing your EEG headset with a USB receiver dongle, please refer to your headset's user manual. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
