3. Setup Guide
3.1 Connecting to Devices
The ROADOM portable monitor offers flexible connectivity options to various devices. Ensure your device's port type is compatible before connecting.
3.1.1 Type-C Connection (Single Cable Solution)
For devices with a full-function Type-C port (which supports signal transmission and power delivery), you can use the included Type-C to Type-C cable for a single-cable connection. This cable will transmit video, audio, and power simultaneously.
- Connect one end of the Type-C to Type-C cable to the full-function Type-C port on the monitor (the middle Type-C port).
- Connect the other end to the full-function Type-C port on your device (e.g., laptop, smartphone).
- If your device's Type-C port has low power output, external power (e.g., mobile battery or power adapter) may be required for the monitor.

3.1.2 HDMI Connection
For devices without a full-function Type-C port, you can use the mini HDMI port for video and audio transmission. In this case, external power supply to the monitor is required.
- Connect one end of a mini HDMI to HDMI cable to the mini HDMI port on the monitor.
- Connect the other end to the HDMI port on your device (e.g., PC, game console).
- Connect the included 5V/2.4A power adapter to the monitor's power input port and a power outlet.
3.1.3 Connecting to Specific Devices
- Nintendo Switch / Smartphones: Due to high power consumption, it is recommended to supply independent power to the monitor when connecting to Switch or smartphones. A mobile battery can also be used for power supply when on the go.
- iPhone: Connecting to an iPhone requires a conversion adapter (e.g., Lightning to HDMI adapter).
- Smartphones (via HDMI): When connecting a smartphone to the display via HDMI, an HDMI adapter for your smartphone is required.
