Manually Setting
In mirror mode, the adapter will automatically select the settings (screen resolution, color
quality and refresh rate) for the add-on monitor. But you can manually adjust the settings as
required. However, the settings of the add-on monitor are limited by that of the primary
monitor. For example, even though your add-on monitor supports a resolution of up to
1920x1080, you can only configure it to use 1280x1024 due to the primary monitor only
supports a resolution of up to 1280x1024.
