Using this Vaddio USB video interface is easy. First, connect the interface to your device via the USB port. You'll need to use your own power supply since this one doesn't come with it. When using, make sure your device has a compatible USB port and that the connection is stable. As for maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to water or other liquids. If there's dust on it, you can gently wipe it with a soft cloth. Don't try to open the interface by yourself as it may void the warranty.
