DisplayLink USB Graphics User Manual

Software Version 7.6

10.6.

Supported Screen Modes

There are three components that make up the screen mode:

Resolution: The number of pixels displayed on screen horizontally and vertically.

Color Quality: The number of different colors that can be shown on the screen at the same time.

Refresh Rate: The speed that the entire screen is rescanned. Higher refresh rates reduce flicker.

Some monitors advertise the supported modes through the VGA or DVI connector. If this is the case, the DisplayLink
USB Graphics device identifies the supported modes from the monitor. If the monitor does not advertise the
supported modes, the DisplayLink USB Graphics software chooses a set of common screen modes for the monitor.

10.7.

Inferred Modes

Some modes in the DisplayLink GUI are shown with [ ] around them.

This occurs when connecting a monitor with a preferred mode higher than the maximum supported resolution of the
DisplayLink device

In this case, the preferred resolution of the monitor cannot be supported. However we add lower resolutions of the
same aspect ratio to be tried with the monitor. Modes in square brackets [ ] imply that these are modes not reported
by the monitor, but have been made available by the DisplayLink software for you to try.

As these are inferred modes from the preferred mode of the monitor, they are not guaranteed to work with the
display.

Error Messages

DisplayLink USB Graphics software occasionally displays user messages in a bubble in the notification area. The table
below lists the user messages and their description.
