Adjust the camera so the player is sized correctly, and place a "stand here" sticker/mat if needed.
Knowing player heights helps; ideally, test with someone your height.

If the screen isn't recognizing touches consistently, or there are "phantom taps", there is dust or debris interfering with the touchscreen sensor (look around the edge of the screen).
If cleaning with a microfiber cloth doesn't resolve the issue, swapping USB ports on the computer can sometimes help.
If the problem persists, contact us via the link below.
[[Give us a call]]<passage-header>Check Monitor Input</passage-header>
Ensure the screen is powered on.

[[Give us a call]]<passage-header>Check Remote Power</passage-header>
Often the remote's internal battery can be drained (even though the led at the top lights up when buttons are pressed).
Try recharging the remote for 2 minutes using a USB-C phone charger.
Aiming the remote through the back of the unit may help.
