*The ZG01 is not certified for Dolby Vision, and has not been officially confirmed to be compatible with it

It is necessary to install the USB driver to connect the console to a Windows/Mac device. To install the USB driver, please refer to the following.

Please check the USB type-c connection.

- If you only have bus power supply from a PC device, try to add a USB power adapter connection to 5 V DC terminal.

- If you are using a USB adapter power supply, please check its supplyable power specification.

*The ZG01 requires 1.5 A for stable operation.

Voice input from the microphone/headset, game sound from HDMI/USB, and voice chat sound from USB/AUX will be sent mixed in any balance you wish.

The mix is set on the STREAMING OUTPUT MIXER page of ZG Controller.

Only your voice input from the microphone/headset will be sent.

The level and effect settings depend on the settings of the gain knob and fader of the main unit and on the MIC SETTINGS and MIC EFFECT pages of ZG Controller.

Adjust AUX volume on the connected devices.

The version of the HDMI port of the ZG01 is equivalent to HDMI 2.0, and the specific support status is as described in the manual.

*HDR10 and HLG are also supported.

No, we guarantee stable operation only up to the subject as described in the manual.

When capturing video output from Apple devices (Mac/iPad/iPhone), it is necessary to place a capture device with an HDMI through port in front of the ZG01 and perform with HDCP disabled.

*Detailed behavior and settings depend on the specifications of the devices to be used in combination.

Please note that even if HDCP is disabled on the capture device at post-stage of ZG01, the Apple device at pre-stage of the ZG01 will not turn off HDCP and will not output the signal as expected and will not capture correctly.

This may be due to the noise suppression/gating function on the platform side. *In most cases, the default value is Enabled.

The noise suppression/gate function of the tele-conferencing service/apps generally cuts out sounds other than the speaker's voice. It is recommended to disable the noise gate in that service/app and use the one in the ZG01*.

*The ZG01's noise gate can be adjusted in the ZG Controller app.

Please check the USB type-c connection.

- If you are using a USB adapter power supply, please check its power specifications to ascertain the amount of power it can supply.

*The ZG01 requires a current of 1.5 A for stable operation.

- If you are using a USB adapter power supply, please check its power specifications to ascertain the amount of power it can supply.

Please check if the mic input of the headset is plugged in. MIC IN and Headset Mic cannot be used at the same time. The Headset Mic input has higher priority.

Please check the status of the monitor select button. The headphone/headset output of the ZG01 and SPEAKER OUT output cannot be used simultaneously. The output depends on the monitor select button setting.

For ZG Controller: Set MIC MONITOR LEVEL to 0 on the headphone monitor output page.

For streaming software: Turn off the monitor switch on the webcasting software.

Please check if the GAIN level is too high. Also, please try to speak into the microphone.

Please install ZG Controller to adjust the EFFECT parameters. The only control available on the console is ON/OFF.
