1. Introduction
This USB Display Adapter enables you to connect one more monitor, LCD or
projector to a computer with a USB 2.0 port. For desktop users adding an extra
monitor via USB connection is easier than ever without having to open the
computer chassis to install an internal video card. Once the installation is done, the
USB-attached monitor soon wakes up. No function key hassle to swap a second
monitor.
With this handy adapter, you can enjoy many benefits brought by an add-on
monitor. The most obvious one is that you get more desktop area to have more
applications visible at one time. For example, you may work on one monitor while
your family watch video on the other. No more stacking windows within the
confines of a single display. Or you may span an application, e.g. spreadsheets,
across two displays. What’s more, the adapter is hot pluggable. If you are not using
the extra monitor, just unplug the adapter at any time; no reboot needed.
System performance is an important issue when using multiple monitors. Another
benefit of this adapter is that it uses little computer resource, ensuring users get
quality display without comprising computer performance.

3. Using the Adapter
Display Modes
There are several ways you can utilize the monitor attached on the adapter. The
add-on monitor can be configured to use either “mirror mode”, “extended mode” or
be the primary display as described in this section.
Extend Your Windows Desktop to Add-on Monitor (Default)
In this so-called “extended mode”, your display will be spread over the add-on
monitor(s). This mode allows you to perform multiple tasks more effectively without
overlapping windows.
Extended mode is the default setting. To set up the adapter to use or restore
extended mode, follow these steps:
1. Position the mouse anywhere on your computer desktop, right-click and select
Personalize > Display Settings on Vista or Properties > Settings on
XP/2000.
2. In the Display drop-down menu, select the option with the string “DisplayLink
Graphics Adapter”.
3. Check the Extend the desktop onto this monitor box on Vista or Extend my
Windows desktop onto this monitor box on XP/2000.
4. Drag the icons in the window at the top of the screen to match the physical
arrangement of your primary monitor and add-on monitor.
