How to use

Plug the HDMI end of the converter into the HDMI output of your source device, then connect the VGA cable from the converter to the VGA input on your monitor or projector. If you require audio, connect speakers or an amplifier to the converter’s 3.5 mm stereo port. If the source device cannot supply sufficient power over HDMI, connect a Micro-USB cable to the converter and an appropriate power source to ensure stable operation. No software drivers or configuration are normally required—select the VGA input on your display device after connections are made.

Recommendations

For best results, use a high-quality VGA cable and, when possible, provide external Micro-USB power if the output device shows unstable video or audio. Ensure the display input is set to the connected VGA port and that your source device is configured to output up to 1080p resolution.
