Symptom: The cable is not recognized
Unplug all cables, restart the computer, and then reconnect everything.
Symptom: HDMI does not work at full 4K 60Hz resolution.
The hub supports HDMI 2.0 resolution up to 4K at 60Hz. You will need a 4K 60Hz rated computer and display to take advantage of HDMI 2.0 bandwidth. Some displays have multiple HDMI input and not all of them are HDMI 2.0 capable so test each HDMI input on the monitor or TV.
Symptom: No signal when connecting to some monitors with DisplayPort input and output.
Some monitors such as Dell P2415Q and P2715Q 4K monitors have two DisplayPort connectors. One of the DisplayPort connectors is for DisplayPort input while the other one is for DisplayPort output. The DisplayPort output is designed for daisy-chaining a second monitor. Please make sure to connect this adapter to the DisplayPort input.
Symptom: Certain monitors only support 4K at 30Hz resolution via DisplayPort.
Certain monitors including the LG 31MU97C, Viewsonic VX2475S, Asus PB287Q, and Philips 288P6LJEB may not support 4K 60Hz via DisplayPort. Resolution may be limited to 4K 30Hz. Contact the monitor manufacturer for this information.

3) Select HDMI or DisplayPort as the output device
