There are two ways to power on your Looking Glass Go:
Connect one end of the cable to the USB-C port on the back of the display, and one end of the cable to a power outlet using the included power adapter. This will activate Standalone Mode (Solid White).
Alternatively, connect one end of the cable to the USB-C port on the back of the display, and one end of the cable to a computer. When connected to a computer, your Go will effectively have two modes to operate on: Standalone Mode (Solid White) or Desktop Mode (Solid Blue).
Press the power button once to turn your Looking Glass Go on.
The Looking Glass Go has a status LED on the side of the device near the power button.
The status LED is helpful to determine what state the Looking Glass is in.
