# Connecting to the WebUI

The WebUI is a web page that sets up the dongle over Bluetooth. Use Chrome or Edge on a computer or an Android phone. Safari and iPhone do not support Web Bluetooth.

1. In 2.4G or USB mode, press the dongle's button three times to turn on the WebUI Bluetooth. In Bluetooth mode it is always on.
2. Open `https://bitlink.8bitmods.shop/app/`.
3. Select **Connect** and choose **BitLink DC** from the list.
4. The badge changes to **Connected**, and **Device Info** shows the firmware version and input mode.

The **Config**, **LED**, **Mapping**, **VMU** and **Debug** pages appear once you are connected.

## Notes

* In 2.4G and USB modes the WebUI Bluetooth turns off after 5 minutes without activity. Press the button three times to turn it on again.
* Select **Disconnect** when you have finished.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://8bitmods.gitbook.io/manuals/bitlink-dc-dongle/webui/connecting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
