Display Modes

“EXTENDED” DISPLAY MODE (DEFAULT)

A default display mode; this feature allows the

attached USB Video Adapter enabled display to work

as an “Extended” display to the on-board display. The

extended working space improves work eciency.

You may change the relative position of this extended

display through the Display Settings.

“MIRROR” DISPLAY MODE

This feature allows the same content from the

on-board display to be duplicated (mirroring) to

the USB Video Adapter enabled display.

The screen resolution setting on the USB Video

Adapter enabled device will match the on-board

displays’s resolution. For example, if the on-board

displays’s resolution is 1024x768x32bit, and the USB

Video Adapter will use the same resolution.

“PRIMARY” DISPLAY MODE

A unique feature to allow the USB Video Adapter to act as the main working display. The USB

Video Adapter will work as the main graphics adapter on the system. The on-board display will

work as the extended display.

Please be advised that some display utilities and drivers that shipped with certain AGP and built-

in display adapters may prevent this option from working on some systems. You may be able to

disable the other utility program (usually found in the same toolbar located on the bottom right

hand corner) to make this function work properly.

“OFF” DISPLAY MODE

This option disables the video output from the USB Video Adapter.
