7.2 mirror mode
• The added monitor screen shows an exact copy of the main display. The settings are initially the
same as from the primary screen, but can manually be changed.
• To enable mirror mode, go to the display settings of the operating system. Right click anywhere on
the desktop, select 'Properties' and select 'settings'.
• Select the DisplayLink Graphics Adapter from the drop-down menu and uncheck the 'extend
desktop onto this monitor' box (see below). Close the window.
NOTICE:
Name and number of the display depends on the local setup. Look for the 'DisplayLink
→
Graphics'-string in the name.
Settings of the add-on monitor (e.g. resolution, colour, refresh rate) are default taken over
→
from the primary display but can be changed manually (see below). However, they are
limited to the highest settings of the primary display. E.g. if the primary monitors' resolution
is limited to 1024x768, then every add-on monitor will be limited to this resolution, even if it
can handle higher resolutions.
It is recommended that the resolution of the primary monitor is adjusted to match the default
→
resolution of the add-on monitor.
7.3 primary mode
• The added monitor will become the primary monitor and will show all information when the
computer enters hibernate or suspend mode or during reboot.
• To enable primary mode, go to the display settings of the operating system. Right click anywhere
on the desktop, select 'Properties' and select 'settings'.
• Select the DisplayLink Graphics Adapter from the drop-down menu and check the 'Use this
device as primary monitor' box (see below). Close the window.
