Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the LINDY 2 Port DisplayPort Splitter with Expander-view. This device is a
high performance DisplayPort splitter which allows one DisplayPort source to be shown simultaneously
on 2 different HDMI or DVI displays. The signal can also be extended across 2 or 4* displays to show
one picture if your source device has more than one output port. The Expander-view function detects
how many displays are connected and generates a combined resolution EDID that allows the picture to
be extended across 2 or 4* displays.
To use this features the graphics card should be DP 1.2 version or have MST (DP Multi Stream
Transport) support or support AMD Eyefinity, Nvidia Surround or Intel Collage.

Operation
The LINDY 2 port DisplayPort splitter is a plug and play device that does not need to be configured with
software or driver support. The splitter automatically switches between "clone" mode and "extended" mode
by controlling the output resolution on the computers graphics card.
Before you install the splitter, make sure all your devices are switched off.
1. Connect a DP cable from your PC to the DP "in" port of the splitter.
2. Connect the DP splitter to the HDMI or DVI "in" port of your displays.
NOTE: We strongly suggest using monitors of the same resolution and size. If using monitors with
different native resolutions, connect the monitor with the lowest resolution to port 1. Otherwise the
screen may remain blank and not work at all.
3. Power on the computer and then the displays. The splitter may be powered from the DP port. If the
DP port cannot provide enough power connect the supplied USB DC cable to an available USB
port or to a USB power supply.
4. If you don't get a picture, reboot again. Please make sure that your graphics card supports MST
(DP Multi Stream Transport) or AMD Eyefinity, Nvidia Surround or Intel Collage.
5. If this does not help, attach one monitor. If this does not work the monitor model may be
incompatible and would need changing.
6. When you have a picture on your displays, adjust the resolution on your PC to the maximum
supported for clone mode or the required resolution for multiple displays.
* 4 displays can be achieved using 2 products
