I am using a Raspberry Pi Zero with a Iot pHat and was able to ssh into the Pi using a usb cable using a tutorial. I then set up my home wifi with the pHat. Then I powered up the Pi with a separate power source. I could then ssh into the Pi wirelessly through my home network.

Finally to my question. I would like to connect the Pi to a wireless keyboard. I am trying to use the bluetoothctl tool to connect it. When running scan on, the Pi recognizes the keyboard, but when pairing, it won't pair. Here is the terminal session:

[CHG] Device 0C:4D:12:11:01:E4 Name: Bluetooth Keyboard
[CHG] Device 0C:4D:12:11:01:E4 Alias: Bluetooth Keyboard

As you can see it seems like it connects and disconnects repeatedly.
