4. Setup and Connection

The KOORUI portable monitor offers flexible connectivity options. Ensure your device supports video output via USB-C or HDMI.

4.1. Connecting via USB-C (Single Cable)

If your device (laptop, smartphone) has a full-featured USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) and power delivery, you can connect the monitor with a single USB-C cable.

• Connect one end of the provided USB-C cable to a full-featured USB-C port on your device.
• Connect the other end to one of the Type-C ports on the monitor.
• Important Note: When using a single USB-C cable for both power and display, the monitor's brightness may be limited to 50% due to power constraints from the connected device. For full brightness, an external power source is recommended.

For devices with an HDMI output or to ensure full brightness, use the Mini HDMI cable for video and a USB-C cable for power.

• Connect one end of the provided Mini HDMI to HDMI cable to your device's HDMI port.
• Connect the Mini HDMI end to the Mini HDMI port on the monitor.
• Connect one end of the USB-C cable to a power adapter (not included) and plug it into a power outlet.

6. Maintenance

6.1. Cleaning the Monitor

• Always disconnect the monitor from power before cleaning.
• Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild, non-abrasive screen cleaner.
• Do not spray cleaner directly onto the screen.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, alcohol, or ammonia-based cleaners, as they can damage the screen surface.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your KOORUI portable monitor, please refer to the following common solutions:

• No Display / Black Screen:
  • Ensure all cables are securely connected.
  • If using HDMI, confirm that a separate USB-C power cable is connected to the monitor.
  • Verify your device's USB-C port supports video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode).
  • Try connecting to a different device or using different cables to rule out cable or source issues.
• Low Brightness (50%):
  • This often occurs when the monitor is powered solely by a single USB-C cable from the host device.
  • To achieve full brightness, connect an external power adapter (5V/2.0A or higher) to one of the monitor's Type-C ports.
• No Sound:
  • Check the monitor's volume settings using the Menu/Volume wheel.
  • Ensure your device's audio output is directed to the portable monitor.
  • Note that some USB-C connections may not support audio output.
• Image Flickering or Instability:
  • Ensure the monitor is receiving sufficient power. Connect an external power adapter if flickering occurs.
  • Check cable connections for looseness or damage.
  • Update graphics drivers on your connected device.
