Hi Doug
I agree with Dan on the likely solution - change the Settings / Bluetooth & Devices / Devices / Bluetooth device discovery from "Default" to "Advance".
Some background - Microsoft released the "2023-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5027231) - Released 13 June 2023", which introduced
the new bluetooth configuration option, with the default setting being such that "Advance devices" are hidden, so you'll see this behaviour on some new devices (which have the update built in) as well as on older devices when they get that update - for example if a Trimble T100 tablet with the 22H2 OS release is updated, you'll get the problem.
NOTE:
The connection method used in Trimble software such as Trimble Access (v2023-01), Siteworks (v1.60.23100.392), Forensics Capture (v3.8.0.51) is such that when you scan for Bluetooth devices from within the software you can see all Trimble GNSS devices, even though the Bluetooth OS option is set to "Default" i.e. Hide Advance devices.

Hey Mark,
Is there any documentation on using an R1 or R2 with Windows 11? I am trying to assist a customer setting up R2s with new Windows 11 tablets

Hi Lee,
Yes, there should be no issues using the R1 with Windows 11. As always though the devil is in the detail, it will depend on what software you are using as well as your workflow. If you need help with that aspect please contact you Trimble partner or Trimble Support.
Regards,
