Bluetooth® USB Adapter Drivers Notice

Note that this installer must be run for the new Belkin Bluetooth adapter (Model F8T017) to work with VUE Software Version 1.6.5 (and prior versions) on computers using Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista.

VEMCO is now shipping the newest model of Belkin Bluetooth USB adapters with our VR2W receivers and communications packages. In the current version of our VUE software (Version 1.6.5), as well as previous versions, user intervention is required to install this new adapter.

      
The most current adapter model is the Belkin F8T017.

To address this, VEMCO has created a simple Bluetooth driver installer that supports the current and older models of Belkin adapters. (Note that VUE Software Version 1.8 (and greater) supports the newest model of Belkin Bluetooth adapters.)
