Once connected, the MOKiN hub allows seamless operation of all its integrated functions:
5.1 HDMI Display Connection

5.2 USB Device Usage
Plug your USB 3.0 or USB-C data devices into the respective ports. Data transfer will begin automatically. Ensure external hard drives or high-power devices are connected one at a time to avoid power issues.

5.4 Power Delivery (PD) Charging

6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your MOKiN 7-in-1 USB C Hub, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Keep Clean: Regularly wipe the hub with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Handle with Care: Avoid dropping the hub or subjecting it to strong impacts.
- Proper Storage: When not in use, store the hub in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Disconnect Safely: Always safely eject connected devices (like external hard drives or SD cards) from your computer's operating system before unplugging them from the hub to prevent data corruption.
- Avoid Overloading: While the hub is designed for multiple connections, avoid connecting too many high-power devices simultaneously if not using the PD input, as this may affect performance or stability.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your MOKiN 7-in-1 USB C Hub, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| HDMI display not working or flickering. | Loose connection, incompatible resolution, or cable issue. | Ensure HDMI cable is securely connected. Try a different HDMI cable. Adjust display resolution on your computer. Restart your computer. |
| USB devices not recognized. | Insufficient power, faulty device, or loose connection. | Ensure the hub is properly connected to your host device. If connecting an HDD/SSD, ensure only one is connected or use the PD port for power. Try connecting the USB device directly to your computer to verify functionality. |
| SD/TF card not detected. | Card inserted incorrectly, damaged card, or file system issue. | Reinsert the card correctly. Try a different card. Check if the card is recognized on another device. |
| Laptop not charging via PD port. | Power adapter issue, cable issue, or hub not fully connected. | Ensure your original power adapter is connected to the hub's PD port. Verify the power adapter and USB-C cable are functional. Ensure the hub's main USB-C connector is firmly plugged into your laptop. |
| Hub feels warm during use. | Normal operation, especially under heavy load. | This is normal. The aluminum casing helps dissipate heat. If it becomes excessively hot, disconnect devices and allow it to cool. Ensure proper ventilation. |
