Primary Mode
Primary Mode displays what would usually be on your
notebook on the monitor attached to the Expansion
Dock. This mode allows you to use a larger monitor but
turns your notebook’s screen off so that you can type on
your computer without the distraction of two of the same
displays. Be sure to have a monitor attached to your
Expansion Dock BEFORE entering into Primary Mode, as
doing so without the monitor will disable your notebook’s
screen and you could lose your display until the Expansion
Dock is unplugged.
To set up the Expansion Dock to use Primary Mode, follow
these steps:
1.
Position the mouse on top of the “B” icon in your
computer’s system tray.
2.
Select “Primary Mode”.
3.
Your displays may flicker at this time and you may be
asked to restart your computer.
Extended Mode
Extended Mode lets you use more than one display with
your notebook computer, which offers several advantages.
For example, in Extended Mode, you can:
• Read email on one display and open attachments
on the other
• Expand a spreadsheet across both monitors
• Increase your working area for graphics-editing by putting
all the pallets and toolbars on the second display
