Operating Instructions

Display Configurations

The docking station supports various display modes depending on your operating system and laptop's DisplayPort version (DP1.2 or DP1.4).

For Windows Laptops (with DP1.4):

Single Display: Connect one monitor to either HDMI (up to 4K@60Hz) or DisplayPort (up to 8K@30Hz / 4K@144Hz).
Dual Display: Connect two monitors. Resolution will be dual 4K@60Hz.
Triple Display (Extend Mode): Connect three monitors (2x HDMI, 1x DP). Display output will be dual 4K@60Hz and 4K@30Hz. If only two monitors display, connect DP first, then the two HDMI ports.

For macOS Laptops (with DP1.4):

Mirror Mode: All external displays will mirror the laptop's screen.
Non-Mirror Mode: External displays can show different content from the laptop, but all external displays will mirror each other. macOS does NOT support Extended Mode (MST) where each external monitor shows unique content.

Maintenance and Care

Keep the docking station clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures or humidity.
Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the device yourself. Contact customer support for assistance.
Ensure proper ventilation around the docking station during prolonged use to prevent overheating.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause / Solution
No display output / Incorrect resolution	Ensure your laptop's USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. Check all cable connections (USB-C to laptop, HDMI/DP to monitors). For triple display on Windows, connect DP first, then HDMI ports. For macOS, remember only Mirror Mode or Non-Mirror Mode (external displays mirror each other) is supported, not extended mode across multiple external displays. Ensure you are using direct HDMI to HDMI or DP to DP cables, not adapters.
USB devices not recognized or unstable	Ensure the docking station is receiving sufficient power (connect PD charger). Try connecting the device to a different USB port on the hub. For wireless mouse/keyboard, connect receiver to a USB 2.0 port and keep it within 11.8 inches of the mouse/keyboard. Only 1 HDD/SSD can be connected at the same time via the USB-C dongle.
Slow network speed	Check your Ethernet cable and router connection. Ensure your network drivers are up to date on your laptop.
Docking station feels warm	It is normal for the docking station to generate some heat during operation, especially under heavy load. Ensure adequate ventilation.
