BASE ADJUSTMENT

7
Computer (via USB-C)
The portable monitor can be connected to a compatible computer using the supplied
USB-C to USB-C cable. This must be connected to the monitor’s primary USB-C port. The
computer will provide power and signal to the monitor and can be used for extended display
or duplicated display use.
Computer (via HDMI with external power)
The second option for HDMI connection is to connect the supplied HDMI-to-Mini HDMI
cable between the computer and the portable monitor, while also connecting the monitor
directly to an external power adapter (supplied) via USB. For this, you can use either the
primary or secondary USB-C ports.
CONNECTION OPTIONS
Note:
When connecting the monitor and laptop through full-function USB-C port (one cable
solution), the brightness of the monitor will be automatically set low to ensure it can be
sufficiently powered by one cable. You can adjust the brightness higher, but the
maximum brightness may be limited to a certain amount.
Ensure the laptop’s USB-C port provides over 5V 1A power.

Mobile phone (via USB-C)
If there is no external power supply connected to the secondary USB-C port, the mobile
phone battery will supply power to the display. The mobile phone’s USB-C output must be
larger than 5V 1A to provide power without external power. To reduce power usage, the
energy-saving mode will be activated and the display brightness will be automatically set
low. Yo u can adjust the brightness and volume of the monitor according to the output power
of the mobile phone.
When connected to an external power supply through the secondary USB-C port, the
display will provide power to the mobile phone through the external power supply. The
brightness of the monitor will automatically adjusted when connecting with external power.
Note:
If using a power bank (not supplied) as an external power source, it must be larger than
18W. Power banks can be used as external power for every connection shown here, not
just mobile phones.

9
Other devices (via HDMI & USB or power adapter)
If connecting to a device without a USB-C port, you can utilise HDMI as long as you also
provide a power supply. Connect the supplied HDMI-to-Mini HDMI cable between the
device and the portable monitor, while also connecting the monitor directly to an external
power adapter (supplied) via USB. For this, you can use either the primary or secondary USB-
C ports.
Note:
When connecting a device using HDMI, to ensure the smooth transmission of the signal
be sure to connect the power cable first, then connect the HDMI.
Notes:
•The touchscreen can only be achieved through USB-C port. The HDMI port cannot
support touchscreen.
•The touchscreen function may vary across different devices dependant on their
compatibility and operation systems.
•Touchscreen function on MacBook may be limited.

timing. The monitor supports the DDC2B standard.

•Before cleaning the monitor, unplug the monitor power cord from
the electrical outlet.
•When cleaning the antistatic screen, slightly dampen a clean, soft
cloth with water. If possible, use a dedicated screen-cleaning tissue
or solvent for electrostatic coating. Do not use benzene, thinner,
ammonia, abrasives, or compressed air.
•If you find white powder when you unpack your monitor, wipe it off
with a cloth.
•Be careful when operating the monitor, as dark monitors are easier
to scratch and leave visible scratches than light monitors.
