Setting Up the dynadock™ and Connecting Peripherals
The dynadock™ may not support VGA displays using Extended Display
Identification Data (EDID).
Connecting to the HDMI
®
out port
To connect a display to the HDMI
®
out port on the dynadock™:
1 Plug one end of the HDMI
®
cable (not included) into the HDMI
®
in
port on the HDMI
®
display.
2 Plug the other end of the HDMI
®
cable (not included) into the HDMI
®
out port on the dynadock™.
The DVI or HDMI
®
cable provides digital communication between the
display and computer, while the VGA cable provides analog communication.
If your display has a DVI or HDMI
®
port, use the DVI cable or HDMI
®
cable
to obtain finer resolution options.
The display cable can be connected/disconnected at any time without
disconnecting the dynadock™ from your computer.
If no output is seen on the display connected to the dynadock™, the current
video resolution setting may not be supported by the display. This can
happen if the display does not report its supported modes to the dynadock’s
DVI component. Adjust the resolution of the external display until an image
appears. For more information, see “Using the TOSHIBA dynadock™ U3.0
Utility” (page 24).
You can customize the video settings of the dynadock™. See “Adjusting
video settings” on page 25 for more information.
