Connect your Bluetooth card to your laptop and then transfer it to your PC.
You have a Bluetooth card with five wires (Red, Black, White, Green, Brown) and you're trying to connect it to your PC. The USB cable you use typically has only four wires, so you might need to modify the connection. You could try using one of the extra wires as a ground or power line, or leave one wire out and connect it differently. Alternatively, you could attempt a direct USB-to-Bluetooth adapter if available.
I possess the item you mentioned. It lists as USB, which is a clear detail. The description shows four pins, yet there are five cables present. You should omit the non-USB component (the brown one) or connect it elsewhere.
I'll focus on matching colors and skip the brown part. Let's see what works.
What method should we use to link the cable? Shouldn't we solder it? Is there a bluetooth indicator light to check for power? I just want to confirm 5V and GND are correct and that the wiring follows standard colors.
Colour: RED, ORANGE connects to POWER, VCC, SVCC, +5V Colour: WHITE, YELLOW connects to P-, DATA-, SBD- Colour: GREEN, GREY connects to P+, DATA+, SBD+ Colour: BLACK, BLUE, BROWN connects to GROUND, GRND, GND The issue was with cable colors not matching the photo. USB connection was using Blue Yellow Red Grey, but I tried using a correct USB cable. I also used a brown shielded cable which worked later when grounded. No indicators were present. I plan to use a proper USB cable now. Despite my experience, it’s still tricky.
I just hooked the wires twice. Now the device isn't showing up at all. Everything looks fine—wires are secure and it worked before. It seems to have been functional when connected improperly or with mismatched colors.
