Why does camera (NX1) lose ability to record when connected to external monitor (Feel world F5)?

I bought the Feel world F5 monitor so I could have a forward facing monitor for recording YouTube videos. It seems to work just fine, except some buttons on my camera stop working when the monitor is turned on, INCLUDING THE record button for video and the shutter release. The menu and playback buttons also stop functioning. Which all kinda defeats the purpose of having a monitor if it stops the camera from working.

The camera is the Samsung NX1. The firmware is up to date, and the NX mod has been installed.  
The monitor is connected using the hdmi to hdmi micro.

The USB Connection setting is set to Remote Access (as opposed to mass storage).

Set to manual, with the 18-200 OIS Samsung lens. Auto focus on, OIS on. But I can't see why it would matter.

Any thoughts? Is there some incompatibility I'm unaware of? A problem with the camera or monitor? Am I missing some setting? I appreciate any thoughts or suggestions of where else to ask/search for answers.

ANSWER:
Samsung NX1
