Troubleshooting


Q: Do I need to install software/drivers?

A: The docking station is plug-and-play out of the box. This device does not need any driver or software installs to make it work properly.


Q: Why am I using a 100W PD charger but only getting 80W charging?

A: The media hub needs 20W for all the port functions to operate simultaneously(100-20W=80W). Refer to the “Power Delivery Performance Chart” for more details.

Q: Why is my laptop not able to charge?

A: Please check the following items: • Check your laptop specifications and determine if your laptop supports PD. • Check your laptop specifications and determine which USB-C port should be used for PD. • Some older computer models have USB-C ports but do not support charging through PD. The original AC/DC power adapter must be used to charge.

Q: What are Extended & Mirror Mode setups?

A: These setup options refer to how secondary monitors will behave in response to primary monitors. Mirror Mode: In mirror mode, secondary monitors will mirror what the primary monitor is displaying, essentially duplicating your primary screen. Whatever is showing on your primary screen will be showing on any secondary monitors. Extended Mode 1 Extends desktop to secondary monitors, maximizing the workspace. Secondary monitors will mirror each other, while the host computer will remain independant. Extended Mode 2 Extends the desktop across secondary monitors, with each having independent desktop workspaces.

Q: Does Windows®/Mac OS® support 4K resolution?

A: Yes. When connected to a computer with DP 1.2, the maximum HMDI resolution will be 4K@30Hz; When connected to a computer with DP 1.4, the maximum HDMI resolution is 4K@60Hz. Refer to the “MST Video Output Table” for more information.

Q: Why is there a blue screen or no video on the monitors when attached to the ports on thedocking station?

A: There may be an issue with the connection or the type of cables used. Please follow these troubleshooting steps: 1. Check to ensure the USB-C port on your devices supports video output. 2. Verify that all cables are securely connected. 3. Confirm standard HDMI cables are being used.

Q: Why is the monitor flickering in and out of a black screen when an HDMI cable is connected?

A: The laptop is sending video data to the monitor. There will be discreppensices in the data which causes the screen(s) to flicker. This is a normal phenomenon and will resolve itself within a minute.

Q: What should I do if the external monitor is not displaying in full screen?

A: Adjust the computer’s screen resolution manually through the system display settings.

Q: What should I do if two monitors are not displaying at the same time?

A: Reduce the resolution of the displays so they do not exceed the values on the “MST Video Output Table”. You may have to adjust the resolution with only a single display connected. Once both displays are adjusted accordingly, both can be re-connected.
