4. Setup and Connection
The ARZOPA portable monitor supports plug-and-play functionality, requiring no drivers for most connections. Ensure your device supports video output over USB-C or HDMI.
Connection Methods:

This single cable will provide both video signal and power.
- Mini HDMI to HDMI + USB-C for Power:
If your device does not have a full-function USB-C port, or if you are connecting to a gaming console (e.g., Xbox, PS5, Switch), use the provided Mini HDMI to HDMI cable for video. Connect the Mini HDMI end to the monitor and the HDMI end to your device. Then, connect one of the provided USB-C to USB-C cables from a power adapter (not included) or a powered USB-A port on your device to a USB Type-C port on the monitor for power.
