6. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your InnoView portable monitor.
6.1 No Signal / Power Saving Mode
- Check Power Supply: Ensure the 45W power adapter is securely connected to the monitor and a power outlet. The monitor requires external power for operation, especially when using HDMI or for full brightness via USB-C.
- Verify Cable Connections: Ensure all video cables (USB-C or HDMI) are firmly connected to both the monitor and your source device. Try re-seating the cables.
- Source Device Compatibility: Confirm your device's USB-C port supports video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode). Some USB-C ports are for charging only.
- Input Source Selection: Use the OSD menu to manually select the correct input source (Type-C or HDMI).
- Restart Devices: Disconnect and reconnect the monitor, then restart your source device.
6.2 Brightness Issues
- External Power Required: For maximum brightness (up to 300cd), the monitor must be connected to the 45W power adapter. When powered solely by a single USB-C cable from a device, brightness may be limited to conserve power.
- Adjust OSD Settings: Use the OSD menu to adjust the brightness level.
6.3 Audio Output Problems
- Check Volume: Ensure the monitor's volume is not muted or set too low in the OSD menu. Also, check the volume settings on your connected source device.
- External Speakers/Headphones: If using the 3.5mm audio jack, ensure your external audio device is properly connected and functional.
- Audio Source: Verify that your source device is sending audio through the selected output (USB-C or HDMI).
