Hi,

I was able to make the max2 work as a second monitor with the hdmi port.

Trouble is that it does not work with all laptop/os. The max2 and hdmi cables are not to blame at first as it works with one laptop/windows10. But I could not make it work with another laptop/debian or with an android tablet (note pro 12.2).

Max2 just says that I should check the hdmi cable. I tested my laptop/debian and android tablet with another screen, it works perfect. So the only reason for them to not work with the max2 is that there is a misunderstanding between both, like my laptop or tablet tries to display a resolution the max2 is refusing.

Did you experience such troubles ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards
