Commercially available USB Type-C to Lightning cables cannot be used for this. Be sure to use only the included USB Type-C to Lightning cable to charge or transfer data to/from the VRC-01 and the iPad.

NOTE: The included USB Type-C to Lightning cable is an Apple MFi-certified cable that’s only for use with the VRC-01.

 

As an alternative, you can use the following to connect any USB-C to USB-A cable:

Apple "Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter" (MK0W2AM/A)

• For iPads with Lightning
• Adds charging, but no HDMI out
  • HDMI output requires an iPad model with a USB-C connector

Apple "Lightning to USB Camera Adapter" (MD821AM/A)

• For iPads with Lightning
• No charging or HDMI out
