Installing the Cover

Using the Cover and Shade Hood

NOTE: Always place the device on a flat, stable surface. Failure to do so may cause the device to fall and damage the device and/or result in personal injury.

Connecting to Power

The monitor can be powered in any of the following configurations:

Type C Connection

Type A Connection

Power Adapter

Connecting External Devices

Your external device(s) can be connected in any of the following configurations:

Type C Connection

Connect a Type C cable from your external device to a Type C port on the monitor.

Micro HDMI Connection

Connect the micro HDMI cable from your external device to the micro HDMI port on the monitor.
Connect the USB Type A to Type C cable from your external device.

NOTE: The USB Type A to Type C connection will also supply power to the monitor from the notebook. The power output must be greater than 10W.

Audio Connection

Plug the audio jack of the ear-/headphones into the Audio Out port of the monitor. Additionally, you can connect the monitor to a sound bar using an audio cable.

Power Delivery

Powering a Notebook or Mobile Phone

If the included power adapter is connected to the monitor, then the monitor can charge a connected notebook or mobile phone.

NOTE: Power Delivery Output: DC 9V/1.33A, 12V/1.75A, 15V/2A, 20V/2.0A.

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 notebook is connected first to the monitor, 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 notebook.

If a mobile phone is connected first to the monitor, then a notebook 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 notebook screen, you must unplug the Type C cable connected to the mobile phone.

Due to the monitor’s design, do not connect two notebooks or one notebook and a desktop computer at the same time. This can cause power distribution conflicts, resulting in flashing screens or the forced shutdown of the notebook(s).

NOTE:

If the notebook has a Type C port, please connect via Type C to the monitor.
Do not connect the other Type C port of the monitor to another notebook or desktop computer via Type A and HDMI at the same time.
If the notebook only has HDMI and Type A ports, please connect via HDMI and Type A to Type C to the monitor.
If the power output of the Type A port of the notebook is not greater than 10W, please use our power adapter to connect to the monitor.
Do not connect the other Type C port of the monitor to another notebook or desktop computer at the same time.

Screen Orientation Adjustment (Monitor Pivot)

Extend the monitor’s stand to the longest position.

Rotate the monitor 90° clockwise or counter clockwise from landscape to portrait orientation.

NOTE:

To rotate the screen image, manually change the system’s display orientation settings.
When adjusting, make sure to hold both sides of your monitor firmly with both hands.

Tilt Angle Adjustment

The monitor has a double-hinged stand that allows for several viewing angles (20˚ to 60˚).

Tilt Option 1

Tilt Option 2

Tilt Option 3

NOTE: When adjusting, support the monitor firmly with one hand while tilting the stand backwards with the other hand.

Turning the Device On/Off

Connect to a power source in one of the available configurations.
Press the Power Button to turn on the monitor.
To turn the monitor off, press the Power Button again.

Note: The monitor will still consume some power as long as the power cord is connected to the power outlet. If the monitor is not being used for a long period of time, please disconnect from the power outlet.
