Troubleshooting

No image on screen

Verify all cable connections are secure. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor. Try a different cable or port on your computer. Reboot your computer and the monitor.

Thunderbolt 4 not delivering power or data

Confirm your computer's Thunderbolt 4 port supports PD (Power Delivery) and DisplayPort Alternate Mode. Ensure you are using a certified Thunderbolt 4 cable. Update your computer's Thunderbolt drivers.

Screen flickering or distorted image

Check cable connections for looseness or damage. Lower the screen resolution or refresh rate in your computer's display settings. Update your graphics card drivers.

Colors appear inaccurate

Ensure the correct color profile is selected in your operating system's display settings. Recalibrate the monitor using a colorimeter if precise accuracy is critical. Check factory preset modes.

Monitor not detected by computer

Restart both the monitor and the computer. Try a different video cable or connection type. Ensure the monitor is powered on and the correct input is selected.
