Power States

Powering On 🟢

There are two ways to power on your Looking Glass Go:

1. 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).

2. 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.

Powering Off 🔴

To power off your Looking Glass Go, hold down the power button until the light indicator is breathing white/blue.
