Macbook Pro Early 2015 and Asus MB168B Portable Monitor

Is my Macbook Pro Early 2015 compatible with an Asus MB168B Portable Monitor? I've downloaded the Asus drivers, and connected the monitor to my Macbook using the Asus USB display cord - it turns on momentarily, then the screen turns black. The power button on the upper left edge of the monitor is glowing red, so it's receiving power. Please advise. Thanks, Hazel


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.5

Hi HdeBT,


We see when attempting to connect your portable monitor to your MacBook Pro, it doesn't display an image.


The Mac and the monitor do appear compatible, assuming your'e connecting directly to the USB port on your Mac or another USB 3.0 compatible adapter.


Additionally, we'd recommend downloading the latest drivers from Asus's website for the monitor, the macOS driver includes support for both macOS Big Sur and Catalina.


Should the issue persist, test with a different cable, or ensure your cable works with another monitor if possible.


Cheers!
