Mac OSX

To configure the display settings and monitor positions, bring up the Displays

Preferences from the System Preferences menu:

The Display settings for each display will appear on the individual monitors

themselves. To configure them all from a single location, press the “Gather Windows”

button and each screen’s Displays Preferences windows will appear on that display.
All supported video resolutions will appear in the list on the left side. To change the

positioning of each display, click on the “Arrangement“ button (found only on the

primary display) and you can then virtually reposition each display.
Using the Adapter in Extended or Mirror Mode
By default the USB Display Adapter will be setup as an extended display. To change

the display as a mirrored/cloned display, check the “Mirror Display” box on the

“Arrangement” page for that monitors Displays settings window. To return the monitor

to an extended display, uncheck this option.
To use both extended and mirrored displays simultaneously, turn off mirroring then in

the “Arrangement” page press and hold the ‘cmd’ and ‘alt’ keys and drag and drop the

display you wish to mirror over the primary display (shown with the white bar).
Repeat this with each display you wish to mirror, all others will act as an

extended display.
