Hello!
Please advise me.
I do not know English and use Google Translate - please understand me)))
While using the helmet while sitting on the floor, the wire was under my knee. I abruptly stood up and the cable flew out of the helmet and bent over the entrance.
When I put everything back in, I found that there is no image in the helmet, although everything is fine on the monitor. I decided to restart the computer - it did not help. While the computer and the helmet were working, I decided to disconnect the cable from the helmet. A light appeared in the helmet for a split second and disappeared.
After, when the helmet was connected, the computer began to issue the following error:
It says 'USB power shortage'
What could it be? Short circuit cable or the helmet itself?\
Thank you in advance for any advice and help.
