2. Position the central bracket over the top edge of your laptop screen.
3. Gently extend the side monitors to align with your laptop's display. The adjustable stand can accommodate various laptop sizes.

3.2 Connection Options

The F2 monitor extender supports multiple connection methods:

• Single USB-C Cable Connection: If your laptop has a full-function USB-C port (supporting both power delivery and video output, such as Thunderbolt 3 or 4), you can use a single USB-C to USB-C cable to connect and power both external monitors.
• USB-A + HDMI Connection: If your laptop does not have a full-function USB-C port, you will need two cables per monitor: one USB-A to USB-C cable for power and one HDMI to Mini HDMI cable for the video signal. Connect these cables to the corresponding ports on the monitor extender and your laptop.

3.3 Initial Display Configuration

After connecting, your operating system (Windows or Mac) should automatically detect the new displays. You may need to adjust display settings:

• Windows: Right-click on the desktop, select 'Display settings'. You can arrange the displays, change resolution, and set display mode (Extend, Duplicate, or Second screen only).
• Mac: Go to 'System Settings' (or 'System Preferences'), then 'Displays'. You can arrange displays, adjust resolution, and enable 'Mirror Displays' or use them as extended desktops.

4. Operation

The Alecewey F2 offers flexible usage modes to enhance your productivity and entertainment.

4.1 Adjustable Stand and Rotation

The integrated adjustable and detachable stand allows for versatile positioning:

• 360-Degree Rotation: The monitors can rotate 360 degrees, enabling various viewing angles for collaboration or personal preference.
• Horizontal and Vertical View: Easily switch between landscape and portrait orientations for different tasks.
• Independent Use: The screens can be detached from the main stand and used independently with their own adjustable bracket.

4.2 On-Screen Display (OSD) Menu

Each monitor has an OSD menu for adjusting display settings such as brightness, contrast, color temperature, and input source. Access the menu using the buttons located on the side of the monitor (refer to Image 3.2 for button location).

5. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Alecewey F2 monitor extender.

• Cleaning the Screens: Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for electronics. Lightly dampen the cloth with water or a screen-safe cleaning solution. Do not spray liquid directly onto the screen.
• Cleaning the Casing: Wipe the exterior casing with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: When not in use, fold the monitors securely and store them in the provided carrying bag to protect them from dust and scratches.
• Handling: Avoid applying excessive force to the hinges or screens. Transport the unit carefully to prevent damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Alecewey F2 monitor extender, please refer to the following common solutions:

• No Display/Black Screen:
  • Ensure all cables are securely connected to both the monitor extender and your laptop.
  • Verify that your laptop's USB-C port is full-function (supports video output and power delivery) if using a single USB-C cable.
  • Check your laptop's display settings to ensure the external monitors are detected and set to 'Extend' or 'Duplicate' mode.
  • Try restarting your laptop.
• Flickering or Unstable Display:
  • Ensure cables are not damaged and are properly seated.
  • Reduce the display resolution in your laptop's settings to see if the issue resolves.
  • Update your laptop's graphics drivers.
• Incorrect Resolution or Aspect Ratio:
  • Adjust the resolution in your operating system's display settings to the recommended 1920 x 1080 pixels.
  • Check the monitor's OSD menu for aspect ratio settings.
• Color Discrepancies:
  • Adjust color settings (brightness, contrast, color temperature) via the monitor's OSD menu.
  • Calibrate your display through your operating system's color management settings.
• Monitors Not Powering On:
  • Ensure sufficient power is being supplied. If using USB-A for power, ensure the USB port on your laptop provides enough power.
