INSTALLING M/CONNECT SOFTWARE

STEP 1

M/Connect Driver Installation Instructions

YOU MUST INSTALL THE NECESSARY DRIVERS ONTO YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE USING M/CONNECT. THIS WILL ENSURE PROPER OPERATION.

NOTE: For proper installation of the DisplayLink drivers, it is important to make sure your

USB 3.0 Host Controller Driver and Graphics Adapter Driver are up to date

• Go to http://www.displaylink.com/downloads/

• Choose your operating system

• Download and install the latest driver

• Ready to go!

TROUBLESHOOTING

We recommend following these guidelines as a best practice.

Ensure installation isn’t blocked by a corporate ﬁrewall

If your ﬁrewall blocks the installation of this driver, corporate users should contact their systems administrator and have them allow this driver under their corporate installation standard procedures (MSI Installer), available for download from DisplayLink’s website.

Individual users should ensure that suggestions to update other drivers are followed. This typically includes updating the laptop graphics and USB drivers to the latest version.

Updating the host graphics drivers to the latest version: For Windows 7, USB laptop drivers are provided by Intel/ OEM notebook vendors. Users have to update this manually. Please refer to http://support.displaylink.com for more details. For Windows 8 onwards, laptop drivers are provided by Microsoft and updated in the system via Windows update.

For the best user experience, we recommend running the latest version of the driver.

CONNECTING MONITORS TO M/CONNECT

The M/Connect Dock provides two monitor connections: an HDMI port and a DisplayPort (DP) port.

Each of your monitors has one or more of the following ports: VGA, DVI, HDMI or DP. If the monitor has an HDMI or DP port, you can use the existing cable to plug directly into the same port on the M/Connect Dock. If you have two monitors and each has an HDMI and a DP, then you can plug one into each of the same ports on the M/Connect Dock. However, if you do not have one of these conﬁgurations ( i.e. you only have VGA or DVI monitor ports), you will need to use a replacement cable to provide the correct connection from the M /Connect Dock to your monitor.

Humanscale offers replacement cables, found in the M/ Connect Price List and in the M/ Connect section of the

Humanscale website: www.humanscale.com.

Use the chart below to determine which replacement cable you need based on your monitor's port availability:

Available port on M/Connect (output) Available port on monitor (input)

M/Connect Replacement Cable - DP to HDMI Humanscale part # : CA-DPHD

M/Connect Replacement Cable - DisplayPort to DVI Humanscale part # : CA-DPDV

M/Connect Replacement Cable - HDMI to DVI Humanscale part # : CA-HDDV

M/Connect Replacement Cable - HDMI to VGA Humanscale part # : CA-HDVG

M/Connect Replacement Cable - DP to VGA Humanscale part # : CA-DPVG

Set the Monitor Input Source

• Each Monitor has a menu (often in the front right lower corner) in which you can select the cable input that you are using.

• Set the correct input by using the scroll keys to select the correct source.

• Many monitors have more than one of the same connector (example, HDMI 1 and HDMI 2). Make sure to note the speciﬁc port

where you installed the cable to ensure you have the exact port you are using entered into the monitor (if you connect to HDMI 1,

you must select HDMI1). If you select the wrong one, the monitor will NOT work.

• Some monitors detect the input source automatically and may not require setting.

USING M/CONNECT

BEFORE YOU CONNECT M/CONNECT TO YOUR LAPTOP:

• Please install the necessary drivers as detailed on page 6

• Please make sure your monitor(s) are set up properly to display from the inputs you are using (e.g. HDMI 1, HDMI 2, DisplayPort etc.)

STEP 1

Power up M/Connect

• Plug the 5V DC jack into M/ Connect, and then plug power adapter (pg. 3, ﬁg. D) into the mains ( pg. 3, ﬁg. E) to power it up

STEP 2

Connect M/Connect to your Laptop

• Connect your laptop using the USB 3.0 cable provided. It may take a few seconds for your laptop to recognize the additional screen(s). While the connection is being made, the screens will ﬂash

STEP 3

Adjust Screen Positions

• To adjust the 'position' of your screens relative to your mouse movement, go to:

- Windows: Control Panel \ Appearance and Personalization \ Display \ Screen Resolution

- Mac: Apple menu \ System Preferences \ Displays

• Drag and drop the display icons into the correct locations and save settings. Moving windows or the mouse between the screens should be a seamless intuitive experience once the monitor locations are set

STEP 4

Attaching Peripherals

• Plug your non-portable peripherals (e.g. printers) into M/ Connect’s under-work surface Dock

STEP 5

Ready to use!

• You are now ready to begin using your M/ Connect

Page 13

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the screens don’t light up and show data after ﬁrst installing:

• First, check that the input selected on the monitor(s) matches the cable types used in connection (DVI/HDMI etc). It can be best practice to set this to the desired connection rather than auto

• Check that the cables are correctly installed and pushed ﬁrmly into place on both the monitor and into the Dock connection on M/Connect

• Ensure that the monitor is powered on. You should see lights on the monitor which means it has power

• Ensure M/Connect is powered on. You should see a white light on the front of the Hub which means it has power

• Try unplugging the USB cable connected to the host notebook and then reconnect after a few seconds. If the connection is made correctly, the host notebook or computer screen should ﬂash while the solution conﬁgures the external displays. Conﬁguration can then be viewed under Windows Display Manager
