6. Troubleshooting

  • No Display/Device Not Working:
    • Ensure both the Transmitter (TX) and Receiver (RX) units are properly connected and powered. The RX unit requires a 5V/2A power supply.
    • Verify that your display device is set to the correct HDMI input source.
    • For Receiver Only mode, ensure your source device's wireless projection feature is enabled and correctly paired with "LLANO-S850".
    • If using an Apple device, ensure the correct PIN code displayed on the TV is entered during screen mirroring.
    • If your source device (e.g., laptop) is low on power, ensure the TX unit is connected to a power source (e.g., via its Type-C port) to provide sufficient power for transmission.
  • Intermittent Connection/Reduced Transmission Distance:
    • The wireless transmission distance is up to 165 ft/50M in optimal conditions. Walls or other obstacles can significantly affect signal strength and speed. Try to minimize obstructions between the TX and RX units.
    • Ensure both units are operating on the 5G/2.4G dual-band for a stronger and more stable signal.
  • Device Overheating:
    • It is normal for the device to generate some heat during operation. However, if the device becomes excessively hot or causes performance issues, disconnect it immediately. Ensure adequate ventilation around the units.
    • Verify that the power supply for the RX unit is 5V/2A. Using an underpowered supply might cause instability or overheating.
  • Phone Case Interference:
    • If your phone case prevents the Transmitter (TX) from fully connecting to your device's USB-C port, use the included USB-C Extension Dongle to ensure a secure connection.
  • Re-pairing Devices:
    • The Transmitter and Receiver units come pre-paired. If re-pairing is ever needed, hold down the respective buttons on both units simultaneously until the indicator lights flash, then release to allow them to re-pair.
