  1. Snap the magnetic USB plug onto the back of the Entagged device.
  2. With the Entagged logo facing you, ensure its HDMI port is facing upwards.
  3. Plug the HDMI cable into the Entagged HDMI port. The cable should point to the right.
  4. Plug your Entagged device (with attached HDMI cable) into your camera’s USB port, and plug the other end of the HDMI cable into your camera’s HDMI port. If the HDMI cable is too close to the Entagged device, you can rotate the Entagged device by 90º or 180º to allow for more space. You can also tuck the HDMI cable behind the Entagged device for a cleaner look.

If your camera has a Micro-USB 3.0 port: The Micro-USB 2.0 magnetic plug is backward compatible and fits into the wider half of the Micro-USB 3.0 port.

After correctly plugging your Entagged device into your camera, it's now time to pair your device with your mobile phone.


The Takeaway

By following these steps, you've successfully plugged in your Entagged device, ensuring a secure and functional connection to your camera. You're now ready to pair your Entagged device with your Entagged app and/or a barcode scanner to enhance your photography workflow.
