FAQ

Why doesn't one of the screens light up after I connect the cable?

1): Due to the insufficient voltage of some laptops(5V/2A or above is required), one screen may not work normally. You can try to use the attached adapter to power the screen. 2): Some new models of laptops have two TYPE-C ports, but only one port can output signal in function, which makes them only support one screen display. You can use an additional HDMI cable to start the other monitor screen. 3): Some old models of laptops can't be used because they lack HDMI or Type-C port to connect with the monitor. If so, you can contact FOPO send you a free suitable docking station for connection. And after connecting with the docking station, in order to use the monitor normally, you need to restart the laptop and triple monitor screens. 4) Note: The following laptops not support with our monitor, pls contact FOPO service for help: laptop with M1&M2 chip; Microsoft Surface Series.
