# Connect to Bluetooth® Low Energy HID Devices

Note: The Bluetooth Low Energy HID feature described in this document is applicable for Windows 7 only. Windows 8 supports Bluetooth Low Energy natively, and in turn, the Bluetooth Low Energy HID support is out of scope for Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software for Bluetooth® Technology on Windows 8.

Once the Bluetooth Low Energy HID device is added (see Add and Connect to a New Bluetooth® Device), a connection with your Bluetooth Low Energy HID device will be established automatically. In case of a sudden disconnection, the software will try to re-establish the connection.

## Check Battery Status of Low Energy HID Devices

To check the Battery Status of a Low Energy HID Device:

1. Click on the Battery Status icon in the system tray.
2. A fly-out window will appear with the list of Low Energy HID Devices and their battery status.
3. Click outside the fly-out window to hide it.
