Toshiba Thunderbolt™ 3 Dock Adjusting Video Settings There are several components that make up the screen mode: Resolution: In common usage, this refers to the number of pixels displayed on the screen horizontally and vertically. Refresh rate: Measures the speed that the entire screen is rescanned. Higher frequencies reduce flicker. Note that interlaced modes are not supported and the resolutions listed in this section might not be supported by your monitor. Additional modes might be offered, depending upon the connected monitor, but these are not currently guaranteed. If the monitor does not advertise the supported modes, the video output component will choose a set of common screen modes. If cloning the primary display, the video output component will try to use the preferred monitor mode. In some cases, this might not be the most appropriate mode for the mirrored desktop. It is recommended that the primary display resolution be changed to closer match the default resolution of the dock monitor. NOTE For more information on supported modes, please check the documentation supplied with your monitor. When the video output first starts, it will extend the primary monitor. Changes to the screen mode and video output component operation mode can be made under the Windows display properties. If no output is seen on the monitor connected to the video output, it may be in a mode which cannot be displayed by the monitor. This can happen if the monitor does not report its supported modes to the video output component. Reduce the resolution of the primary display, and in turn the resolution of the video output display until an image is shown. Placing the monitor into an unsupported mode for long periods can CAUTION damage it. Adjusting the Video Settings for the connected monitor: 1. Right-click the Intel HD Graphics icon in the Windows taskbar or right-click on the desktop and select Intel Graphics Settings to open the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel. 2. Click Display. NOTE This section only introduces some general settings. For more information, go through the on-screen options to choose the one as desired. EN-26 User's Manual

Adjusting Video Settings
There are several components that make up the screen mode:
Resolution:
In common usage, this refers to the number of pixels displayed
on the screen horizontally and vertically.
Refresh rate:
Measures the speed that the entire screen is rescanned.
Higher frequencies reduce flicker.
Note that interlaced modes are not supported and the resolutions listed in
this section might not be supported by your monitor.
Additional modes might be offered, depending upon the connected monitor,
but these are not currently guaranteed.
If the monitor does not advertise the supported modes, the video output
component will choose a set of common screen modes.
If cloning the primary display, the video output component will try to use the
preferred monitor mode. In some cases, this might not be the most
appropriate mode for the mirrored desktop. It is recommended that the
primary display resolution be changed to closer match the default
resolution of the dock monitor.
When the video output first starts, it will extend the primary monitor.
Changes to the screen mode and video output component operation mode
can be made under the Windows display properties. If no output is seen on
the monitor connected to the video output, it may be in a mode which
cannot be displayed by the monitor. This can happen if the monitor does
not report its supported modes to the video output component. Reduce the
resolution of the primary display, and in turn the resolution of the video
output display until an image is shown.
