Connecter des écrans externes :
For HDMI displays, connect HDMI cables from your monitors to the HDMI1 and/or HDMI2 ports on the docking station.
Pour les écrans VGA, connectez un câble VGA de votre moniteur au port VGA de la station d'accueil.
Connectez les périphériques :
Plug USB devices (e.g., external hard drives, flash drives) into the USB 3.0 ports.
Connect wireless mouse/keyboard receivers to the USB 2.0 port.
Insérez les cartes SD ou TF dans les emplacements respectifs du lecteur de cartes.
Pour une connexion Internet filaire, branchez un câble Ethernet au port RJ-45.

Driver Installation (Mac OS Specific): For Mac OS, due to its MST (Multi-Stream Transport) display limitations, installing DisplayLink drivers may be required to achieve extended display functionality across multiple distinct displays. Refer to the DisplayLink website for the latest drivers and installation instructions. For Windows, it is generally plug-and-play.

4. Mode d'emploi
4.1 Modes d'affichage
La station d'accueil prend en charge différentes configurations d'affichage en fonction de votre système d'exploitation :
For Windows 10/11 OS:
Mode miroir (A-AAA) : All connected displays (laptop screen, HDMI1, HDMI2, VGA) show the same content.
Mode étendu (A-BBB) : The laptop screen and external monitors display different content, extending your desktop workspace. This supports up to three different screens (laptop + 2 external monitors via HDMI + VGA).
Mode étendu (A-BCD) : Similar to A-BBB, allowing for distinct content across multiple displays.
Pour Mac OS :
Due to Mac OS limitations (lack of MST support), the docking station primarily supports extending one monitor, with other external monitors mirroring that extended display. All three screens will display the same picture when VGA is connected alongside HDMI displays.
Extend Mode (A-AAA or A-BBB): The docking station supports extending one monitor. Any additional external monitors will mirror the content of the first extended monitor.
Mode miroir : Tous les écrans connectés affichent le même contenu.
Note on VGA: When the VGA port is connected, the maximum resolution for each monitor will be limited to 1920x1080@60Hz.
