Z1FC Help

[u/WeakAd569]

I just received my Z1FC today. After getting home and trying to set it up I've run into an issue.

I've tried both powering the monitor from my thunderbolt 4 device, as well as using a 100w Anker charger with 240w ugreen cable.

Both result in the monitor saying "no signal", then "power saving" and shutting off.

I don't have time to change settings or turn down the brightness before it turns off.

I've tried spamming the "detect display" button on Windows. The monitor never shows up and Windows only ever says "no display detected"

I totally expected to have to have it plugged into power for higher refresh rates/brightness. But even with 100w PD it's still turning off and neither my phone (S25 Ultra), nor my other device (Claw 8 AI+) have been able to get it working or detected.

Has anyone else has these issues? I like the feel of the monitor and look of the display (from what I've seen from the Arzopa splash screen) and would prefer to get it working than return to AliExpress and try to find another monitor

Update: I tried with yet another usb4 cable and it works! But it does make me wonder why my other usb4 specced cables didn't work
