How do I enable HDR?

Ensure your computer and graphics card support HDR. In your operating system's display settings, enable HDR. Also, make sure the content you are viewing supports HDR.

What is the purpose of the 'M-Book' mode?

The 'M-Book' mode optimizes the display settings for Mac devices, ensuring color accuracy and compatibility with macOS.

Troubleshooting

Monitor is not displaying an image.

Check the power cable connection. Ensure the video cable (HDMI or USB-C) is securely connected to both the monitor and your computer. Try a different cable or port if available.
