7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your eppfun CS500, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
No signal or display on screen.Loose connections, no power, incorrect display input.
  • Ensure both TX and RX units are securely plugged into their respective HDMI ports.
  • Verify that both TX and RX units are receiving power via their Micro USB connections.
  • Check that your display device is set to the correct HDMI input source.
  • Try restarting both the source device and the display device.
Intermittent signal or poor video quality.Obstructions, excessive distance, interference.
  • Reduce the distance between the TX and RX units.
  • Remove any physical obstructions (walls, furniture) between the units.
  • Minimize interference from other electronic devices (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, microwaves).
  • Ensure the units are not placed near large metal objects.
Units are not pairing automatically.Power issue, incorrect connection, unit malfunction.
  • Confirm both TX and RX units are powered on.
  • Ensure it is a 1-to-1 connection (one TX to one RX).
