A USB device or adapter dongle doesn’t work or interferes with other USB devices randomly. How can I make them work properly?
Why can't I pair my IAM (Identity and Access Management) account with AMS (Account Management System), DMS (Device Management Solution), or X-Sign Broadcast?
Currently, AMS, DMS, and X-Sign Broadcast may all only be paired to one unified IAM admin account. If different IAM admin accounts are used, pairing will fail. For example, if DMS is paired already to an IAM account, you won't be able to pair AMS or X-Sign Broadcast with a new IAM account unless other BenQ services (EX: DMS) are deleted. In essence, AMS, DMS, and X-Sign go together with one IAM account and all need to be unpaired to switch IAM account association.
If you would like to pair software with a new IAM account, please delete the devices in associated BenQ services (DMS, AMS, Broadcast) from the corresponding web site. If other BenQ services are deleted but still encounter a pairing issue, please record the MAC address and contact your local BenQ service center for further assistance.

If you've previously used OTA update for X-Sign Player and cancelled it during the download process, you will need to delete the previously downloaded file stored in the "Download" folder of your operating system prior to carrying out a new OTA update.
Why is there a rectangular box on the lower-right part of the screen? Can I remove it?
This is the new app storage visual area in our launcher, and you may put frequently used apps inside the box. The box cannot be removed.
