the connected device. Each display is configured independently. All configuration 

options are shown and described below.

Extend

The monitor attached to the Mini Docking Station Adapter displays an extension 

of the user’s active Windows desktop. The extra desktop area is a great productivity 

aid, allowing more applications or documents to be visible at a time. The device is 

now extended in the direction it was the last time the display was in this mode. For 

more control, use the “

Extend To

” submenu and select one of the options. This puts 

the device into extend mode, and places it to the Right/Left/Above/Below the main 

(primary) monitor.

Mirror

The monitor attached to the Mini Docking Station Adapter displays a duplication of the 

primary display. The resolution, color depth and refresh rate of the primary screen are 

replicated on the monitor connected to the adapter.

Note:

 If the monitors used are of different specifications, the system’s primary graphics 

adapter will scale all settings to lower specification to maintain a uniform aspect ratio.

Extend To

This option allows you to specify the physical location of the monitor connected to the 

Mini Docking Station Adapter in relation to the systems on-board monitor.

Screen Resolution

This option allows you to change the resolution on the monitor connected to the Mini 

Docking Station Adapter. Simply select the desired option from the list of supported
