2. Adjusting Video Settings
A. Selecting Extended mode or Mirror mode
You can choose to set the video output signal to Extend mode or Mirror mode. The
default setting is Extend mode.
Extend mode extends your desktop space across multiple monitors, so that you can
display different information on each monitor connected to your computer. This provides
a number of advantages to increase productivity, including the ability to:
• View large spreadsheets across two screens
• Multitask more effectively without overlapping windows
• Compare two documents simultaneously across two screens
• View videos / TV on one screen and reviews on the other
Mirror mode duplicates the image on your computer screen onto the external
monitor(s). This mode is useful if, for example, you want to view information on a larger,
external desktop monitor instead of a smaller, built-in computer screen. In Mirror mode,
the Adapter automatically adjusts the external monitor’s resolution, color quality, and
refresh rate settings to provide the best overall image quality based on your computer’s
settings.
