Once done, the indicator light on your Graphics will start to flash for 5 seconds, and then breathe (white color). This means that Mind has been disconnected from Graphics and you can remove Mind safely.

Press the Mind Unlock Button located at the back of Graphics. You’ll see a pop-up notification on the Mind App: “Do you want to disconnect Graphics?”. Click Confirm to proceed. The indicator light on Graphics will start to flash for 5 seconds, and then breathe (white color), indicating you can remove Mind safely.

Forcing a Disconnection
If you can’t disconnect Mind from Graphics using either of the methods above, press and hold the Mind Unlock Button for 10 seconds. This will force the Mind Lock Mechanism to disengage, allowing you to safely remove Mind from Graphics.

Connecting to a Laptop via USB-C

Laptops and desktop computers that come with Thunderbolt 4 or 3 can be connected to Mind Graphics via the USB-C port. Once connected, visit the NVIDIA official website to download and install the specific graphic card drivers required to enable the full graphics acceleration offered by your Graphics.

Priority: Mind Link vs. USB-C
Mind Graphics prioritizes the Mind Link connection over USB-C by default.

  • If you wish to connect Graphics to another device via the USB-C port while it’s connected to Mind, you must first disconnect Mind from Graphics.
  • Should Graphics be connected to another device through the USB-C port and you wish to switch to the Mind Link connection with Mind, ensure to save any data on the USB-C-connected device first. Establishing a connection between Mind and Graphics will forcibly terminate the USB-C connection to the other device.
