It is not designed to be recognized by GE unless you have an ANT stick.
This is expected as he UT800 updates via an ANT USB stick. Not that there have been any updates I think.
There have been few if any update to the UT800 and most users would get those delivered via their Edge unit.
If a software update is available for your Varia UT800 Smart Headlight, you will be able to install…

Your statement is not correct.
Update or not the light is not recognized from the garmin express program. I try all my other devices and they work just fine.
I think that is a problem with the light microport

Ok today I will try with the Ant+ . This means the Garmin website have wrong instructions how to connect and register the UT 800 light

Aweatherall...I was having the same issue but lucky for me, I did have my Ant USB Stick from an old garmin forerunner 405 in a drawer.
Reaally weird - Garmin delivers a device with a set of instructions that clearly does NOT mention a ANT+ stick nor does the box contain such an extra thingy!! For some lucky reason (as someone else in this thread) I kept my ANT stick from the days of forerunner 405!

When checking out the online instructions the same applies - nothing about the ANT stick!

@Garmin - this is not ok!
As others have said, you need the ANT+ stick, but my frstration lies in that the RTL515 - a similar generation light from Garmin is recogniseable over Garmin Express and doesnt have this silly limitation.
Maybe Garmin assumes that you only buy one if you have one of thier Edge devices?
