Chapter 5: Advanced Operation
5. Advanced Operation
5.1 Advanced Settings
1. Refer to the Windows system configuration section to open the configuration page.
2. To change the refresh rate or other options, click on “Advanced settings.” For more detailed adjustments, refer to the operating
system’s instruction manual.
3. Click “OK” to confirm and close the settings screen.
5.2 Adjust the Resolution
Extended Monitor
By default, the adapter will configure the settings for the add-on monitor automatically, such as screen resolution, color quality,
refresh rate, etc. Users can also configure these settings. The maximum resolution and refresh rate depend on the monitor’s speci-
fications.
Mirror Monitor
In mirror mode, both monitors will be configured to the same resolution, which may not be the maximum resolution of the
monitors. The resolution of the primary and add-on monitors may be changed to a lower resolution. For example, if the primary
monitor does not support the resolution of 1920 x 1080, then 1920 x 1080 is not possible to set, even if the connected adapter
supports 1920 x 1080.
Supported Resolution
Before adjusting the resolution, refer to Table 1-2 in Chapter 1, Specifications for the supported resolutions.
NOTE: Interlaced modes and reduced blanking modes are not supported.
5.3 Using Multiple Adapters
Up to six adapters can be connected to one computer simultaneously. To connect multiple adapters, install the drive as described
in Chapter 3 and then connect the adapters to a computer.
Figure 5-1. Installation using multiple adapters.
NOTE: Only the first connected adapter can be configured to extended mode. The others will be forced to mirror mode if you are
using a low-end computer.
