Hi Woody098!
To connect your keyboard to Bluetooth, turn on Bluetooth on the device you want the keyboard to be connected too. Hold the pairing button or power off and power on your keyboard. Look for the keyboard on the iPad's Bluetooth list. Remember, the keyboard has to be compatible with Bluetooth.
Take Care!
