Due to version limitations, Switch 2 may not be able to connect directly to portable monitors via a USB-C cable. To address this issue, we have updated the firmware for certain portable monitors, enabling them to work properly with a direct USB-C connection. If Switch 2 receives future system updates, we will also update the software accordingly.

The SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) for most monitor upgrade software is generally similar; the main difference lies in the firmware being loaded (please pay special attention to Step 4 for details). Here, we will use the GR19BU software upgrade SOP as an example. If you need to upgrade other portable monitors, please click the following link. 

When connecting the Switch2 to the GR19BU (UColor Apex) portable monitor via a single-cable (one-line) connection, a software upgrade is required. Please click this link to download the software and follow the instructions below.
