Troubleshooting

Symptom Solution
Video doesn't show on external display	• Check that the HDMI cable is connected securely between the monitor and device and the device is securely connected to the computer• Check that the external monitor is turned on and set to the correct input• Check that your computer is detecting the external display and is set to show video on it• Check that the USB-C port on the computer that you have connected the device to supports video output using DisplayPort Alternate Mode• If the computer doesn't detect the external monitor or output video after checking the above, restart your computer and attempt again
Video drops out intermittently	• Check that the HDMI cable is connected securely between the display and device• Check that the device is securely connected to the computer• Check that the HDMI cable being used to connect to the display is of good quality and isn't damaged
Computer doesn't start charging when the device is connected	• Ensure a USB Power Delivery power supply is connected to the USB-C port on the device marked PD• Ensure that the power supply is connected at the wall and turned on, and the USB-C cable supplying power is securely connected• Verify that the USB-C port on the computer supports charging from a USB PD power source
Can't get a dual extended monitor on Misc OS	This hub drives two extended monitor base on MST (Multiple Stream Transport), and the macOS only support SST due to its system limitation, therefore 2 external monitor can't display different contents.
No Audio output from my HDMI Monitor	Ensure the monitor supports audio output and set the external monitor as default audio output device.
Cable length provided is too short, can I use an extension cable?	The cable length will affect the signal transmission, an extension cable is not recommended, the length of most connection cables is between 50cm to 1m
