Power Supply Detection

This product will detect if the power supply device is an adapter, laptop or mobile phone.

• If the power source is an adapter or notebook, the default brightness value will be 100.
• If the power source is a mobile phone, the default brightness value will be 15.
• When using a mobile phone to power the monitor, the default brightness level will be 15.

NOTE: Due to the limited power output of the mobile phone, do not adjust the brightness level higher as this may cause the display to flash or shut down.

Power Delivery - Further Information

Due to the design please note:

• The first connected device will be the main input signal.
• When a Type C port recognizes an external device as a power adapter, it will only distribute the power. It will NOT display the input signal.
• Only when one of the Type C ports is recognized as a power adapter can the other one deliver two-way power.

If a laptop is connected first to the VG1655, then a mobile phone is connected second, the mobile phone’s battery will not be charged as neither Type C port recognizes the connection as being connected to a power adapter.

NOTE: If you want to display the mobile phone’s screen, you must unplug the Type C cable connected to the laptop.

If a mobile phone is connected first to the VG1655, then a laptop is connected second, the mobile phone’s battery will be charged as one of the Type C ports is recognized as being connected to a power adapter.

NOTE: If you want to display the laptop screen, you must unplug the Type C cable connected to the mobile phone.
