Hardware Installation for USB
1. Connect the HDMI display device (e.g. monitor) to the video adapter and power on the
display device.
2. Connect the power adapter to the video adapter and press the power button. The power
LED on the video adapter will light up.

the computer system, overriding any onboard audio. Multiple audio output devices cannot
be used at the same time, as this is not supported by Windows. To switch back to using the
onboard audio, go into the Windows Sound / Audio properties (found through Control Panel)
and change the default audio playback device.

the video adapter.
