For devices with a full-featured USB-C port (supporting DisplayPort Alternate Mode and power delivery):

  1. Connect one end of the USB-C to USB-C cable to your device's USB-C port.
  2. Connect the other end to either of the monitor's USB-C 3.1 ports.
  3. The monitor should automatically detect the signal and power on. If not, connect the USB-A to USB-C power cable to an external power source (e.g., power adapter) and the other USB-C port on the monitor.

3.1.2 HDMI Connection

For devices with an HDMI port:

  1. Connect one end of the Mini HDMI to HDMI cable to the monitor's Mini HDMI port.
