Connect a device
OpenLogi talks to Logitech HID++ mice over three transports:
- Receiver — a Logi Bolt or Unifying USB receiver; OpenLogi discovers the receiver and lists every paired device.
- Bluetooth-direct — a mouse paired straight to the computer over Bluetooth, no receiver.
- Wired — a mouse connected over USB.
Verifying the connection
Open the GUI — connected devices appear in the device carousel, with battery
percentage and charge state for online devices. From the CLI, run
openlogi list to print the same inventory headlessly.
If a device doesn’t show up, confirm Logi Options+ is fully quit (including
its menu-bar agent) so it isn’t holding the receiver. On Linux, quit Solaar
and check the GUI’s Settings → Permissions page — the udev rules must be
installed for /dev/hidraw* access (see
Installation).
