Mirror Your Windows Desktop
This mode is referred to as “mirror” or “clone” mode. In this mode, your original
screen (the primary display) will be mirrored to the add-on monitor.
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 1680x1050, you can only configure it to use
1280x1024 due to the primary monitor only supports a resolution of up to
1280x1024.
If you change the video output to extended mode and then want to switch back to
mirror mode, follow these steps:
