Troubleshooting
External monitor is not displaying at 4K 60Hz
Ensure your host laptop supports DisplayPort 1.4 Alt Mode. Some older devices may only support DP 1.2, which limits the output to 4K 30Hz.
Laptop is not charging
Verify that your power adapter is USB-C PD 3.0 compliant and that the cable is securely connected to the pass-through port on the adapter.
USB devices disconnected when power source is unplugged
This is normal behavior due to the Fast Role Swap (FRS) feature; the device momentarily resets to ensure power stability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the device, keep the ports free of debris by using compressed air if necessary. While the unit is designed for portability, avoid sharp bends in the integrated cable when storing it to prevent long-term wear.
