3. Using the Adapter
2. Select the monitor icon that represents the add-on display you wish to change, or
choose the add-on display from the drop-down menu. The primary display is always
icon 1.
3. Check the box next to
This is my main monitor
and click the
Apply
button to make
the add-on display the primary display for the computer.
Note:
• Some computers require you to first un-select the original primary display
before setting a new primary display.
• Once set as the primary display, the add-on display will continue to be the
primary display as long as it is connected to the computer. Once disconnected,
the primary display will default back to the monitor connected to the computer
via standard cable.

Q: Why is the display on the add-on monitor
blank?
A: If the monitor power LED is Green, wait a
moment for the monitor to display the video,
as it may take some time for the video to be
displayed on the add-on monitor. If after a few
minutes the video does not display, restart your
computer. Also, make sure the computer is not
in standby or hibernation mode, which will cause
the add-on monitor to be blank.
If the monitor power LED is Red, check if the
connection is properly made. If the connection
is fine and the problem still exists, uninstall the
driver, unplug the adapter and reinstall the driver.
