The TECH450 will connect wirelessly to the TPMS Desktop using
Bluetooth technology. While this will work easily with most
computers, some have software which can be difficult to setup. In
these rare circumstances, or if the computer does not support Bluetooth, a Bluetooth adaptor
be used. Additional information on how to install an adaptor can be found on the Bartec
support website: tools.bartecautoid.com
