Setting the Display into Extend Mode

Use this procedure when you want to extend the Windows desktop to the DisplayLink display. This allows many different 
applications to be spread over multiple displays, to be able to see multiple applications at the same time.

To set the display to Extend Mode using Windows Display properties

1. Select Extend the desktop onto this monitor checkbox (1 in Figure 1).
2. Arrange the screen resolution using the Resolution slide bar. (2)
3. Select the colour quality from the Colors drop-down list. (3).
4. Arrange its position with respect to the other monitors on the extended desktop in using the drag area (4).
5. Click OK to save your changes.

For more detailed mode setting, including the refresh rate, click Advanced Settings button, then the Adapter tab then on the List 
all modes button. All valid combinations of resolution, colour quality and refresh rate are listed. For CRT monitors, it is best to 
use a high refresh rate so as to avoid discomfort due to flicker. Flat panel monitors do not flicker and a low refresh rate is 
adequate.

To set the display to Extend Mode using the DisplayLink menu

1. From the taskbar, click on the DisplayLink icon 
2. Select Extend.

Setting the DisplayLink Display to Mirror the Primary Screen

Mirror mode copies what is on the main display and reproduces it on the secondary display.

To set the display into Mirror Mode

1. Uncheck the Extend the desktop onto this monitor checkbox (1 in Figure 1).
2. Click 

Apply

.

To open the Windows Display Properties on Windows

quality and position can all be controlled from here.
