### LED Status Lights

**On boot/turn on** A short blink in either :red\_circle: / :yellow\_circle: / :green\_circle: indicates current battery state. Red being low. It'll also blink :red\_circle: when the battery is critically low and changes value.&#x20;

**After battery check** It'll blink :blue\_circle: for bluetooth connected, :yellow\_circle: for advertising, :red\_circle: for disconnected.&#x20;

**USB Connected** It'll show :red\_circle: when charging the battery and :green\_circle: when fully charged.

## Connecting Via USB-C

You can also plug it in to your device using a USB-C cable and will work as a standard wired keyboard.&#x20;

## Changing Bluetooth Settings

To access the Bluetooth Settings layer shown in red above, hold the spacebar + any other red action button. This will allow you to change Bluetooth profiles, as well as clear any profiles that already have Bluetooth settings. This is useful for any connection issues or moving to another device.

## Battery Information

The battery, if fully charged, will last roughly a week with heavy use. The device sleeps after 30 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life. Press any button to wake the device and it will reconnect automatically. You can view the battery percentage inside your devices Bluetooth Settings
