Connecting The Monitor; Care And Cleaning; Network Connection - Renkforce 1574791 Mode D'emploi

Tips and notes
a) General information
• Do not disconnect the USB connection between the docking station and the computer during operation,
as this may lead to data loss.
• Do not use the docking station without the enclosed power adapter.
b) Connecting the monitor
• The docking station allows the operation of up to 2 monitors.
Please note:
Connect only one monitor to each of the two combined monitor outputs "DISPLAY 1" and
"DISPLAY 2".
Connect monitor # 1 to the HDMI or "DISPLAY 1" display port connector (see chapter "Connec-
tions and controls", pos. "4" or "5"); connect monitor # 2 to "DISPLAY 2" (see figure, pos. "6" or "7").
If you connect both monitors to the outputs "4" and "5" for example, you will only get a picture on
the monitor that is connected to the display port.
If you want to connect a 5K monitor to the docking station, connect both display port outputs of
the docking station to your monitor.
• The operating system should be able to recognize the second monitor automatically after the drivers are
installed and the computer is connected to the docking station. For example, in Windows, the mouse
pointer can be moved from the first monitor to the second one. Also, windows on the first monitor can be
moved to the second monitor.
• Depending on what mode you have set in the display settings of the driver software or,on Windows, a
second monitor can be used as an extension of the first monitor, or the monitors show the same display
content.
• During startup/ boot up of the computer, there won't be a picture on the monitor that is connected to the
docking station, since at this point the driver is not yet loaded.
A picture will appear only after the operating system and the driver have finished loading.
• To change the monitor allocations, edit the graphic settings in Windows (for Windows 7/8/10, click on an
unused area of the desktop with the right mouse button and select "screen resolution") or even use the
setting options of the docking station's software (Displaylink functions).
For example, the location of the second monitor can be changed (whether it is allocated to the left or the
right of the first monitor), or you can adjust the resolution as desired.
• Since the picture content is transferred via USB3.0/3.1, you may encounter delays in the display of picture
content, if the picture content changes quickly. This is observed mostly if a very high resolution was
selected or videos are being played.
• The graphic output of the docking station cannot be used for games, as it is not suitable for 3D operation.
• Since all data between the computer and docking station is transferred via a USB port, the use of graphics
output, network port, external sound card and USB3.0 hub have an impact on each other. Transferring
large data amounts via the network connection or the USB3.0 hub will reduce the speed of the graphics
output (e.g., moving windows on the desktop gets slower, or similar).
• Never set a higher resolution/display refresh rate (or a combination of both values) than supported by the
monitor. Observe the user manual of the monitor for this.
c) USB 3.0 Hub
• The USB3.0 ports of the integrated USB hub may be used with any USB device, such as a USB webcam,
USB mouse or USB keyboard.
• The USB3.0 hub is compatible with USB2.0/1.1. You can also connect slower devices.
• It doesn't matter, which of the USB3.0 ports you use first.
d) External sound card
• One stereo jack bushing is used as a adset output, the other one as a connection for microphones. For this
purpose, observe the symbols next to the sockets. Do not swap round the connectors, otherwise neither
the headset, nor the microphone operates.
• If the computer to which the docking station is connected has its own sound card, Windows normally
automatically activates the ports on the docking station when the latter is connected to the computer and
switched on.
• In the audio properties of the Windows system control, the microphone input and the audio output can be
selected, so that you can switch between internal and external sound cards.
e) Network connection
• If there is a network or system administrator who is responsible for your network (for example, in a larger
company), let the administrator set up the connection and the configuration.
• The RJ45 network port on the docking station is connected to your router or network switch,for example,
via a fully wired network cable with a 1:1 connection.
• The specified maximum data transfer rate of 1000MBit (gigabyte LAN), or about 125MByte/s, is never
reached in practical operation. This is caused by the transmission method used, transmission errors, other
devices in the network and so on; another reason is the maximum transfer rate of the USB port (the data
for the graphic output is transferred via the same USB port; the same is true for the external sound card
and the USB hub in the docking station).
• With Windows, it might take some time until the PCs appear on the network. When you turn on the com-
puter, after a few seconds, when Windows is loaded on all computers, you will be able to access all the
other PCs immediately.
If, after a few minutes, it is still not possible to access other PCs, check any firewall and/or virus scanner
settings that may be used.
Naturally, the access permissions also have to be set accordingly, if you are using an operating system
that offers such features.
Consult the applicable operating instructions, when using a network printer or other devices in the network.
There are numerous causes explaining why a network connection is not successful. Please refer to the
appropriate specialist literature or to a specialist technician.
• If you are not using a DHCP Server (e.g., integrated in all DSL routers), you should assign an IP address
to each PC.
Set the first computer e.g., to 192.168.1.2, the second to 192.168.1.3, etc. The first three numbers must
be the same for all computers; the last number can be between 1 and 254.
The „subnet mask" has to be set to 255.255.255.0 for all the computers in the network.
• Please keep in mind that an IP address (such as 192.168.1.1) can only be used once in the network. When
you set your router to the IP address 192.168.1.1, no other device in the network can use this IP address!

Care and cleaning

Before cleaning the product, switch it off and unplug the wall plug transformer from the mains socket.
Never use abrasive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, since these could damage
the casing or even impair operation.
Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
