How Do I Turn Muse 2 Off?

Published in Device Power 2 mins read

The Muse 2 device is designed to power off automatically after a period of inactivity, rather than requiring a manual shutdown.

Your Muse 2 will automatically shut down to conserve battery life if it remains idle. By default, the device will turn off after 5 minutes if no color readings are taken. This specific duration is referred to as the "awake time," which signifies how long the Bluetooth connection remains active without any measurement activity.

Understanding Muse 2 Power Management

While there isn't a manual button to instantly power down your Muse 2, its automatic shutdown feature makes power management simple and efficient. Here's what you need to know:

  • Automatic Shutdown: The Muse 2 will automatically power off after 5 minutes of no color reading activity. This built-in feature helps ensure your device doesn't drain its battery unnecessarily when not in active use.
  • Customizing Awake Time: You have the flexibility to adjust this default 5-minute "awake time" through the device's settings. By modifying this setting, you can change how long the Muse 2's Bluetooth connection stays active before it automatically powers down. This is particularly useful if you require the device to stay connected for longer periods between readings.

Understanding this automatic power-off mechanism allows for efficient use of your Muse 2, ensuring it conserves energy when not actively engaged in color measurement tasks.
