Using the dynadock 4K Docking Station and
Adjusting Settings
If you use multiple dynadock 4K docking stations with a
single computer (for example, one at work and one at home),

saved when you disconnect the computer. This enables you
to have each dynadock 4K docking station adjusted to
different video settings for each location. The settings are
retained each time you use the dynadock 4K docking station
with your computer.

Mirror mode, the dynadock 4K docking station automatically
adjusts the external display’s resolution, color quality, and
refresh rate settings based on your computer’s settings.
