Connection Method

Connect your devices to the portable monitor using the following methods:

For devices with full-feature USB-C (supporting video) or Thunderbolt 3/4 ports, simply connect using a single USB-C to USB-C cable for power, video, and touch.

NOTE: To avoid screen blackout or flickering, especially at maximum brightness or volume settings, please use an external power supply if the device's power supply is insufficient.

2. Laptop/PC/mini PC (with HDMI port)

For devices with only HDMI ports, connect using a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable for video and a USB-A to USB-C cable for power.

NOTE: Touchscreen functionality is NOT supported in HDMI mode. Use the included 15W+ power adapter for stable operation at high brightness/volume.

3. Phone (with Full-feature USB-C port)

Connect your phone to the monitor using a USB-C to USB-C cable.

NOTE: Phone power may be insufficient for maximum brightness/volume, causing flickering. Use an external power source for stable performance. Some phones, like Google Pixel, do NOT support video output. For iPhones, a Lightning to HDMI adapter is required, and touchscreen functionality is not supported.

4. Nintendo Switch

Connect with Switch Dock via HDMI: Use a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable and a USB-A to USB-C cable for power.

Troubleshooting

For any problems, please feel free to contact us at support@gwsgut.com.

Black screen or No signal

• Use the original USB-C to USB-C cable provided for video signal transmission. The USB-A to USB-C cable is for power supply ONLY.
• Ensure your device has a full-featured USB-C port (USB 3.2, DP Alt Mode, or Thunderbolt 3/4). USB-A ports are not supported for video.
• Some devices, like HP Elitebook, Acer Aspire, and Google Pixel, have USB-C ports that do NOT support video output and only support power.
• Try an HDMI connection: Use a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable for video transmission along with a USB-A to USB-C cable for power supply.

Screen keeps flickering/restarting

• This typically occurs due to insufficient power supply, especially when using only a single USB-C cable at maximum brightness or volume.
• For stable operation, connect an additional power source (included) of at least 15W.

My phone/tablet does not work with this monitor

• Your phone may not be able to provide enough power supply for the monitor. Please connect an additional power supply of at least 15W.
• Game Mode (Maximum Brightness) in the OSD menu is not recommended for mobile phone connections.
• The USB-C port of some devices, like Google Pixel, does NOT support video output and only supports power. An Android to HDTV cable is required in such cases.
• For Apple iPhones, a Lightning to HDMI adapter is required to work with the monitor.

Touchscreen Not Working

• Touch functionality requires a USB-C connection. HDMI connections do not support touch, including for game consoles.
• Due to system restrictions, iPhones/iPads do not support touching. MacBook/Mac mini supports only single-touch.
• Please refer to Page 8 for recognizing the touch screen.

HDR/FreeSync Not Working

• First, enable HDR/FreeSync in the monitor's OSD menu.
• Update your graphics driver (NVIDIA/AMD/Intel).
• Use a full-feature USB-C cable (included).

Can't move cursor to the portable display

Please refer to Pages 6-7 or the video tutorial to rearrange screen positions correctly.

Can't adjust the brightness and contrast

Brightness and contrast cannot be adjusted if HDR or DCR is turned on. Please check these settings in the OSD menu.

Screen Too Dark

• Adjust Brightness in the OSD menu.
• Enable Game Mode (Max Brightness) in the OSD menu (this requires external power connection).

Touch Cursor appears on my PC screen instead of touch screen
