How to Use SATURN and ORBIT Interfaces with iOS devices (iPhone, iPAD)?

iOS Devices with Lightning Port (Apple Camera Kit is required.)

  1. Connect the interface to your iOS device using an Apple Camera Adapter.
  2. The iOS device will act as the host, and the interface will be recognized automatically.
  3. If insufficient power occurs, use an Apple Camera Adapter with a charging port to supply external power.

Example:
iPhone or iPAD (Lightning) > Apple Camera Adapter > SATURN / ORBIT

iOS Devices with USB C Port

  1. Connect the SATURN or ORBIT interface directly to the USB C port of your iPhone or iPad.
  2. No driver installation is required.
  3. If power is insufficient, use a USB C hub with power delivery.

Example:
iPhone or iPad (USB C) > USB C cable > SATURN / ORBIT

Android Devices
Android devices are not officially supported due to latency and compatibility differences across models. If your device works properly, please contact us so we can update the compatibility list.
