4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Display Modes for Windows
For Windows operating systems, the adapter supports multiple display modes:
- Mirror Mode: Duplicates your laptop's display across all connected monitors (A-A-A).
- Extend Mode: Extends your desktop across multiple monitors, allowing for different content on each screen (A-B-C).

4.2 Display Modes for macOS
Due to macOS limitations, all MacBook models have specific display capabilities:
- Mirror Mode: Duplicates your laptop's display across all connected monitors (A-A-A).
- Extend Mode (SST): Allows for an extended desktop, but both external monitors will display the same content (A-B-B). macOS does not support Multi-Stream Transport (MST) mode (A-B-C) for different content on each external display.
