4.2 Connecting to Devices

The monitor supports various connection methods depending on your source device.

• Single USB-C Cable Connection (Full-featured USB-C):

  For laptops, PCs, and smartphones with a full-featured USB-C port (supporting DisplayPort Alternate Mode and Power Delivery), connect one end of the provided USB-C to USB-C cable to your device's USB-C port and the other end to either USB Type-C port (C1 or C2) on the monitor. This single cable will provide power, video signal, and enable touchscreen functionality.

• HDMI and USB-C Power Connection:

  For devices with an HDMI output (e.g., gaming consoles, older laptops, PCs), connect the provided Mini HDMI to HDMI cable from the monitor's Mini HDMI port to your device's HDMI port. Additionally, connect the monitor to a power source using the USB-C to USB-C cable and a power adapter (not always included, but recommended for stable operation) via one of the monitor's USB Type-C ports.

• Touchscreen Functionality:

  For touchscreen functionality, ensure a USB connection is established. If using HDMI for video, you will need a separate USB-C to USB-A cable (not always included) to connect the monitor's USB-C port to your device's USB-A port for touch data transmission. For full-featured USB-C connections, touch is enabled automatically.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

1. No Signal / Black Screen:
   • Ensure all cables (USB-C, HDMI) are securely connected to both the monitor and your source device.
   • Verify that your source device is powered on and configured to output video to an external display.
   • Try a different cable or port if available.
   • Check the monitor's OSD menu to ensure the correct input source is selected.
2. Screen Flickering / Unstable Display:
   • This often indicates insufficient power. Connect the monitor to an external power adapter via one of its USB-C ports, especially when connecting to smartphones or devices that may not provide enough power.
   • Ensure the USB-C cable used supports power delivery.
3. Touchscreen Not Responding:
   • For full-featured USB-C connections, ensure the cable is properly connected and supports touch data.
   • For HDMI connections, a separate USB-C to USB-A cable is required to transmit touch data from the monitor to your device's USB port. Ensure this cable is connected.
   • Verify that your operating system (Windows, Android, Linux) is compatible and has the necessary drivers installed (usually plug-and-play). iOS/macOS support touch as a mouse, not full multi-touch.
   • Restart both the monitor and the connected device.
4. No Audio from Monitor Speakers:
   • Check the volume settings on both the monitor (via OSD menu) and your source device.
   • Ensure the audio output on your source device is directed to the external monitor.
   • If using HDMI, ensure the HDMI cable supports audio transmission.
5. Monitor Does Not Work with Mobile Phone:
   • Not all mobile phones support video output or full-featured USB-C. Verify your phone's specifications for DisplayPort Alternate Mode support.
   • Ensure the phone is providing sufficient power to the monitor, or connect an external power source to the monitor.
