2. For Windows users, the set-up process will begin automatically. For Mac users, an
install screen will appear with a
Display Link Software Installer
link. Click this link to
begin installation. Follow the prompts that appear to complete the process.
3. When this process is complete, you will need to restart your computer to finish the
installation.
4. After restarting your computer, connect the included USB cable from an available
USB 2.0 port to the display adapter.
5. Connect your display adapter to a monitor using a DVI or VGA cable, depending on
your adapter/monitor connection type.
6. Once connected, the computer will recognize the display adapter, and complete
the installation. The video should now be displayed on the add-on monitor.
Note: It
may take a few moments before the screen appears on the add-on monitor.
Also, it is normal for the screen to flicker on and off a few times when first
connected. If the add-on monitor remains blank, you may need to restart
your computer one more time.
Using Multiple Display Adapters
When using multiple display adapters, it is only necessary to install the driver software
once. After connecting the first display adapter to the computer, simply move on to
connecting the next display adapter.
Note: When using Windows Vista XDDM mode, only one display adapter will
be able to be configured to use Extended mode, and the remaining display
adapters will be forced to use Mirror mode. Windows Vista XDDM mode is
a video card driver mode that provides a Windows XP interface on a Vista
computer.
