3.2 Connecting Cables
The connection method depends on your laptop's available ports. Refer to the compatibility section for detailed port requirements.
- Option 1: Two USB-C to USB-C Cables
If your laptop has two full-featured USB-C ports (supporting power supply and video signal), connect each screen extender panel directly to a USB-C port on your laptop using the provided USB-C to USB-C cables. - Option 2: One USB-C to USB-C, One USB-A to USB-C, and One HDMI to USB-C Cable
If your laptop has one full-featured USB-C port, one USB-A port, and one HDMI port, connect one screen extender panel via USB-C to USB-C. For the second panel, use the USB-A to USB-C cable for power and the HDMI to USB-C cable for video signal.

3.3 Driver Installation (for specific scenarios)
For MacBooks with M1/M2/M3 chips, or if one screen shows "No Signal" after initial connection, driver installation may be required:
- Use the H5 HUB to connect the USB-A/C port of your laptop to the "USB with DP" port of the non-working monitor. If necessary, use a USB-A to USB-A or external power outlet to connect to TYPE-C1/C2 of the monitor on the same side.
- Follow the instructions to install the provided driver (usually named "USB display") on your laptop.
- Restart your laptop after installation.

6. Troubleshooting
6.1 No Signal on One or Both Screens
- Check Cable Connections: Ensure all cables are securely connected to both the screen extender and your laptop.
- Verify Port Compatibility: Confirm your laptop's ports are full-featured USB-C or that you are using the correct combination of USB-A and HDMI cables for video output.
- Driver Installation: For MacBooks with M1/M2/M3 chips or persistent "No Signal" issues, install the provided "USB display" driver as described in Section 3.3.
- Restart Laptop: A system restart can often resolve display detection issues.
6.2 Insufficient Power Supply
If the screens flicker or do not power on reliably, your laptop may not be providing sufficient power.
- Use a 65W+ adapter connected to an external power outlet. Connect this adapter to any monitor's power input. This setup can simultaneously power both the screen extender and your laptop.
