To connect your Logitech K350 to a Unifying receiver, you need a receiver that displays the orange Unifying logo, a K350 keyboard with working batteries, and a computer with a free USB port. Once you plug in the receiver and install the Logitech Unifying Software, the pairing process takes just a few clicks.
What you need to connect your Logitech K350 to a Unifying receiver
Before starting, verify you have these three items:
- A Logitech Unifying USB receiver with the Unifying logo. The K350 can only connect to receivers that display this logo; it cannot connect to non-Unifying Logitech USB receivers.
- A K350 keyboard with working batteries. Ensure batteries are installed correctly and have sufficient power.
- A computer with a USB port. The receiver plugs directly into a USB port on your computer. Logitech’s support software is documented for Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11.
Steps to connect your Logitech K350 to a Unifying receiver
- Plug the Logitech Unifying receiver into an available USB port on your computer.
- Turn the K350 keyboard on using its power switch, located on the underside of the keyboard. The K350's power switch is usually located on the underside of the keyboard.
- If needed, install and run the Logitech Unifying Software. This software is required to pair the keyboard to the receiver.
- Follow the on-screen pairing instructions provided by the software to complete the connection. The Unifying Receiver has a physical 'Connect' button that must be pressed to enter pairing mode, indicated by a blinking LED light. The K350 keyboard itself has a physical 'Connect' button, usually positioned on the side near the power switch, that must be pressed and held to pair. A successful connection is indicated when the LED light on the Unifying Receiver stops blinking and remains solid.
Once paired, the keyboard should work immediately. If you want to customize keyboard settings, Logitech’s SetPoint software is available for that purpose. SetPoint is the specific Logitech software for customizing keyboard settings on the K350.
Troubleshooting K350 Unifying receiver connection problems
If the keyboard does not work after following the steps above, check these common issues:
- Receiver lacks the Unifying logo. Logitech states the K350 only works with receivers that display the Unifying logo. If your receiver does not have this logo, it is not compatible.
- Dead or incorrectly installed batteries. Confirm the batteries are fresh and inserted with the correct polarity.
- Receiver has reached its pairing limit. One K350 Unifying receiver can support up to six Logitech mice or keyboards that also have the Unifying logo. If the receiver is already paired with six devices, remove one before adding the K350.
- Pairing failed. Run the Logitech Unifying Software again to reset and re-establish the connection between the keyboard and receiver.
- Distance or interference. Distance from the receiver can interfere with the wireless signal; moving the keyboard closer can resolve connection issues. Wireless routers, cordless phones, and other electronic devices can cause interference that disrupts the signal.
- Faulty USB port. A faulty USB port on the computer can cause connection problems; trying a different USB port is a troubleshooting step.
- System restart. Restarting the computer can resolve connectivity issues.
