Figure 4.2: Ports on the KEFEYA S6 monitor.
Option 1: Laptop with Two Full-Featured USB-C Ports
If your laptop has two full-featured USB-C ports (supporting DisplayPort Alternate Mode and power delivery), this is the simplest connection method.
- Connect one USB-C to USB-C cable from your laptop's first full-featured USB-C port to the 'USB C with DP' port on the left extender screen.
- Connect a second USB-C to USB-C cable from your laptop's second full-featured USB-C port to the 'USB C with DP' port on the right extender screen.
Figure 4.3: Easy connection methods for the KEFEYA S6.
Option 2: Laptop with One Full-Featured USB-C Port, One HDMI Port, and One USB-A Port
This method uses a combination of cables.
- For the first screen: Connect one USB-C to USB-C cable from your laptop's full-featured USB-C port to the 'USB C with DP' port on one extender screen.
- For the second screen: Connect the USB-A end of the USB-A to Type-C cable to your laptop's USB-A port, and the Type-C end to the 'Type-C1' or 'Type-C2' port on the second extender screen. Then, connect an HDMI to Type-C cable from your laptop's HDMI port to the 'USB C with DP' port on the same second extender screen. Important: Ensure you connect the USB-A cable first, then the HDMI cable.

Option 3: Laptop with One HDMI Port, Multiple USB-A Ports, but No Full-Featured USB-C Port (Requires H5-T Cable)
If your laptop lacks a full-featured USB-C port, you may need the included H5-T cable (USB-to-HDMI converter).
- For the first screen: Use the H5-T cable to connect to the 'DP' port on one extender screen. This cable typically requires a USB-A connection for power and an HDMI connection for video.
- For the second screen: Use a USB-A to Type-C cable to connect to the 'Type-C1' or 'Type-C2' port on the second extender screen. Then, connect an HDMI to Type-C cable from your laptop's HDMI port to the 'USB C with DP' port on the same second extender screen.

Note: If a single USB-C port cannot power one screen, please contact customer support for assistance. Ensure your laptop's display settings are configured to extend or duplicate the display as desired after connection.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your KEFEYA S6, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Screen not displaying / No signal | Incorrect cable connection; Insufficient power; Laptop display settings; Incompatible port. | 1. Ensure all cables are securely connected to the correct ports on both the extender and your laptop. 2. Verify your laptop's USB-C ports are full-featured (support DisplayPort Alt Mode and power). If not, use the USB-A + HDMI method or the H5-T cable. 3. Check laptop display settings (Windows: Display Settings; macOS: System Settings > Displays) to ensure 'Extend' or 'Duplicate' mode is selected. 4. If using USB-A & HDMI, ensure USB-A is connected first, then HDMI. |
| Screen flickering or unstable display | Insufficient power; Loose connection; Driver issue (for some setups). | 1. Ensure your laptop provides sufficient power to the screens. If a single USB-C port is not enough, try connecting an external power source if available or contact support. 2. Re-seat all cables. 3. For certain configurations (e.g., some older MacBooks or specific Windows setups), a driver download might be required. Consult KEFEYA support. |
| Monitors not recognized by laptop | Incompatible laptop model/chip; Outdated drivers. | 1. Confirm your laptop is not an M1/M2/M3/M4 MacBook. 2. Update your laptop's graphics drivers. 3. Try restarting your laptop with the extender connected. |
| Image quality issues (dull, blurry) | Incorrect display settings; Cable quality. | 1. Adjust brightness, contrast, and sharpness using the monitor's function settings. 2. Ensure your laptop's resolution output matches the extender's native resolution (1920x1080). 3. Try using different cables provided with the product. |
