5. Setup Guide

Follow these steps for initial setup:

1. Measure Laptop Size: Ensure your laptop's screen size is between 13-16 inches, its height is over 8.27 inches, and its thickness is less than 0.28 inches.
2. Unfold the Monitor: Gently unfold the two side screens from the main unit. Extend the central frame to fit your laptop's width.
3. Mount to Laptop: Carefully attach the FOPO S12 to the top of your laptop's display panel. Ensure the clips securely hold the monitor without excessive force.
4. Release the Stand: Extend the integrated stand on the back of the FOPO S12 to support its weight and prevent strain on your laptop's hinges. Adjust the stand length for optimal stability.
5. Connect Cables: Connect the appropriate cables from the FOPO S12 to your laptop. Use Type-C to Type-C cables for video and power if your laptop supports it. For HDMI connections, separate USB-C to USB-A cables are needed for power.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Display Modes

The FOPO S12 supports various display modes, including duplication (mirror) and extension. These modes can be configured through your operating system's display settings.

• Extension Mode: Extends your desktop across all three screens, allowing for increased workspace.
• Duplication Mode: Mirrors your main laptop display onto the external monitors.

6.2 On-Screen Display (OSD) Settings

Each monitor has its own OSD menu for adjusting settings such as brightness, contrast, audio volume, and color temperature. Access the OSD menu by pressing the designated menu button on the monitor.

7. Mounting and Unmounting

The FOPO S12 is designed for easy attachment and detachment. The scalable bracket ensures a secure fit for various laptop sizes.

1. Mounting: Extend the frame to match your laptop's width, then carefully place the monitor onto the top edge of your laptop screen. Ensure the clips are firmly attached. Deploy the kickstand for support.
2. Unmounting: Before removing the Tri-screen, close your laptop to prevent damage. Extend the frame, then gently lift the monitor off your laptop. Fold the screens inward for compact storage.

8. Power and Charging

The FOPO S12 requires power for operation. It can draw power directly from your laptop via USB-C if your laptop supports power delivery. Alternatively, use the provided power adapter.

If your laptop's charging port is USB-C and the charging adapter's power is between 45W and 68W, you can connect the charging adapter to the monitor's Power Supply Port. The monitor will then transfer power to your laptop via a USB-C to USB-C cable, allowing you to charge your laptop while using the monitor.
