Troubleshooting
Monitor does not power on
Ensure the AC power cord is securely connected to both the monitor and the wall outlet. Try a different power outlet. Check if the power button is being pressed correctly.
No image displayed / 'No Signal' message
Verify that the video cable (USB-C, HDMI, or DisplayPort) is securely connected to both the monitor and your computer. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor via the on-screen display (OSD) menu. Restart your computer.
Webcam not recognized or not working
Ensure the webcam is not physically blocked or covered. Check if the privacy shutter is open. Verify that the USB-C cable is properly connected, as it carries the webcam signal. Check Device Manager (Windows) or System Information (macOS) to see if the webcam is detected. You may need to install or update drivers for the webcam or USB controller.
Audio issues (no sound or poor quality)
Check that the monitor's speakers are enabled in your operating system's audio settings. Ensure the volume is turned up on both the monitor and your computer. If using the microphone, ensure it is selected as the default input device and that application permissions allow microphone access.
Laptop not charging via USB-C
Confirm that your laptop's USB-C port supports Power Delivery. Ensure the USB-C cable is capable of data and power transfer (typically provided). Check that the power consumption of your laptop does not exceed the 65W delivery limit of the monitor. Try a different USB-C cable.
Display flickering or distorted image
Check the video cable connections for looseness or damage. Try a different compatible video cable. Lower the display resolution or refresh rate in your computer's display settings to see if the issue persists. Update your computer's graphics drivers.
