1. Safety Precautions
For your safety and protection of the E-bot, please read and abide
by the following important safety precautions.
1) Do not plug the AC adapter into a faulty electrical outlet. This is to
prevent electrical shock or fire.
2) Do not touch the AC adapter with wet hands.
3) Use only the AC adapter provided with the E-bot. Using another AC
adapter may damage the device. Be advised that damage caused
by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
4) Please do not remove the power cable when the E-bot is turned on
as this can damage the product.
5) Do not use the E-bot in a moisture-rich environment such as a
bathroom, shower or a wet kitchen counter as moisture may get
inside the unit and damage the components.
6) Do not use E-bot in extreme high or low temperatures. We
recommend that you do not use this device in environments below
0°C or above 40°C, as the image may display inaccurately.
7) Always turn off the power before moving the product to another
location.
8) When you press the release switch to fold the E-bot, please grip the
arm and manually fold the unit. Allowing the arm to simply drop may
cause impact damage to the unit.
9) Do not use the DC OUT at the back of the device as a power supply
for devices other than authorized visual displays for E-bot as this
can damage the product and/or the connected device.

without a power supply.
E-bot manual
When you use the E-bot for the first time or after a long period of
disuse, please allow the unit to charge for more than 5 hours
3) Charging via the AC Adapter
The DC jack is located on the back of the E-bot.
When E-bot is connected to the AC adapter, the battery is being
charged. When the battery is being charged, the Power LED
appears red. When the battery is fully charged, the power LED color
is changed to green.
The power LED is located on the top right of the control panel of the
main body. The power LED indicates status as follows:
4) Charging via USB
If you connect the E-bot to a computer via USB while E-bot is
powered off, the E-bot’s battery is charged.
When E-bot is powered on, power is no longer supplied to the
battery for charging, but rather, is used for outputting video data to
the PC.
5) Connecting to displays
E-bot is compatible with various types of display devices, such as
desktop video monitors, laptop computers, and Apple or Android
E-bot manual
tablets.
6) Connecting a monitor (HDMI)
You can connect E-bot directly to a desktop monitor or TV via HDMI
without the need for a computer or additional software as all of E-
bot’s programming and controls are on the main body of the unit
and the wireless remote control.
The monitor needs an external power source even though the E-
bot is connected to AC power.
If the monitor has no HDMI port, please use the included HDMI to
DVI gender adapter.
7) Connecting an On-Lap monitor (DC OUT)
The On-Lap Monitor is a portable, USB powered LCD, sold
separately. Because its power comes from USB, it does not require
an external power source. If you connect the On-Lap Monitor's USB
power cable (USB 2.0) to the DC OUT port on the back of E-bot,
you can use E-bot’s power to power the On-Lap monitor. Connect
On-Lap’s HDMI cable to E-bot’s HDMI port to display E-bot’s output
on the On-Lap monitor.
