2. Setup Guide

Verifying Your Laptop's USB-C Port Type

Before connecting the docking station, it is crucial to confirm that your laptop's USB-C port supports the necessary functions for display output and power delivery. Not all USB-C ports are created equal.

Figure 2: USB-C Port Type Verification

Ensure your laptop's USB-C port is a Full Function port, supports Data Video Output, or Data+DisplayPort Alt. Ports that are 'Only Charging' or 'Only Data Transfer' will not support external display functionality.

Connecting the Docking Station

1. Connect the integrated USB-C cable from the LIONWEI docking station to a compatible USB-C or Thunderbolt 3/4 port on your laptop.
2. Connect your external HDMI monitors to the HDMI ports on the docking station.
3. For power delivery, connect your laptop's original power adapter or a compatible 100W PD charger to the PD USB-C port on the docking station.
4. Connect any USB peripherals (keyboard, mouse, USB flash drives, etc.) to the USB-A 3.1 ports.

Display Configuration

The LIONWEI docking station supports various display modes depending on your operating system.

Figure 4: Display Modes for Windows and macOS

For Windows Systems:

• Mirror Mode (A-AA): All displays (laptop and external monitors) show the same content.
• Extend Mode (A-BB): External monitors extend the desktop, showing different content from the laptop display.
• MST Display (A-BC): Each external monitor can display different content, extending the desktop across all connected screens.

For macOS Systems:

• Mirror Mode (A-AA): All displays (laptop and external monitors) show the same content.
• Non-mirror Mode (A-BB): External monitors show the same content, which is different from the laptop display.
• Note: Due to macOS system limitations, the screens of external monitors will be the same, whether in mirror mode or extended mode. macOS does not support MST (Multi-Stream Transport).

Power Delivery (PD) Charging

The docking station features a 100W PD USB-C Power Charging Port, allowing you to charge your compatible device quickly while using the hub's other functions.

Important: Please ensure that your laptop's USB-C port supports the Power Delivery protocol. For optimal charging, use the same power adapter as your original charger. Using a lower wattage charger may result in a system warning or slower charging.

High-Speed Data Transfer

The three USB-A 3.1 ports provide high-speed data transfer capabilities, allowing you to move large files, photos, and videos quickly.
