48 Using the dynadock™ and Adjusting Settings
Adjusting video settings
Mirror mode duplicates the image on your computer screen on the
external monitor(s) connected to the dynadock™. This mode is
useful if, for example, you want to view information on a larger,
external desktop monitor instead of a smaller, built-in computer
screen. In Mirror mode, the dynadock™ automatically adjusts the
external monitor’s resolution, color quality, and refresh rate settings
to provide the best overall image quality based on your computer’s
settings.
To configure the dynadock’s video output signal to Mirror mode or
Extended mode, connect an external monitor to the dynadock™ as
described in the section “Connecting a monitor” on page 29, and
then follow the steps below:
1Right-click the TOSHIBA Video Dock icon in the System
tray/Notification Area of your Windows® desktop.
(Sample Image) TOSHIBA Video Dock icon
If the icon is not visible in your System tray/Notification Area, make
sure the dynadock™ is connected and docked, and then click the
Show Hidden Icons button [ ], if necessary, to display hidden
icons.
2Select Extend or Mirror from the menu.
If you notice certain windows or other parts of your display are
missing when you disconnect your computer from the dynadock™,
you may need to de-select the Extend my Windows® desktop onto
this monitor checkbox in your Windows® Display Properties dialog
box to return the entire image to your primary screen.
You can also use the Windows® Display Properties screen to switch
between Extended mode and Mirror mode.
The external monitor connected to the dynadock™ may be identified
as either "2" or “3” on the Windows® Display Properties screen
(depending on your computer model), even though there may not be
three viewable displays.
