استكشاف الأخطاء وإصلاحها

إذا واجهت مشكلات مع محطة الإرساء الخاصة بك، فراجع المشكلات والحلول الشائعة التالية:

• لا يوجد إخراج للعرض:
  • تأكد من أن منفذ USB-C الخاص بجهازك المضيف يدعم وضع DisplayPort البديل.
  • تأكد من توصيل كابل HDMI بشكل آمن بكل من محطة الإرساء والشاشة.
  • Verify the monitor input source is set correctly (e.g., HDMI 1, HDMI 2).
  • Try connecting the monitor directly to your host device (if possible) to rule out monitor or cable issues.
• أجهزة USB غير معترف بها:
  • Ensure the docking station is properly connected to your host device.
  • حاول توصيل جهاز USB بمنفذ مختلف على محطة الإرساء.
  • Connect the USB device directly to your host device to confirm it is functional.
  • If using high-power USB devices, ensure a power adapter is connected to the docking station's PD port.
• سرعات نقل البيانات البطيئة:
  • Ensure your connected devices and cables support the advertised speeds (e.g., USB 3.2 Gen 2 for 10Gbps).
  • Verify that your host device's USB-C port supports the necessary bandwidth.
  • Avoid using excessively long or low-quality cables.
• مشاكل الاتصال بالشبكة:
  • تحقق من اتصال كابل Ethernet بكل من محطة الإرساء وجهاز التوجيه/المودم الخاص بك.
  • Verify that your network drivers are up to date on your host device.
  • Test your Ethernet cable and network connection with another device if possible.
• NVMe SSD Not Detected:
  • Ensure the NVMe SSD is correctly installed and seated firmly in its slot.
  • Check your operating system's disk management utility to see if the drive is detected but uninitialized or unformatted.
  • Ensure the SSD is an NVMe M.2 drive; SATA M.2 SSDs are not supported.
