ENEN Connecting Your Monitor Connecting to Accessories Audio and Edge Charging your Computer with Edge First, connect Edge to a wall socket using the included power adapter and cable. Then press and hold in the joystick on the back of Edge to turn the monitor on or o. When connected to Edge's

USB-C 3.0 Gen 1 (Display) port, your computer will automatically recognise any USB-C accessories connected to Edge's USB 2.0 (Accessory) ports. We recommend using these ports for connecting peripherals like mice and keyboards, or data devices like external hard drives. Edge has stereo speakers which can be used when it’s connected to a video source via HDMI, DisplayPort or USB-C (DP Alt Mode). To do so, simply select 34C2KPD/40C2KPD from your device’s Settings -> Sound menu. Additionally, Edge can send audio to a pair of headphones or (externally-powered) speakers connected to its 3.5mm Audio port. When an external audio device is connected, Edge's speakers will be disabled. This 3.5mm Audio port cannot be used for audio in, like microphones. Edge can charge USB-C connected computers at up to 90W. To do so, simply connect a Power Delivery (PD) compatible USB-C port to Edge's USB-C 3.0 Gen 1 (Display) port via the included cable. Not all USB-C ports are PD compatible. To check if yours is, look for a plug, battery or lightning icon. Many ports don’t have icons, so we recommend checking the product manual or manufacturer’s website to be sure. All Thunderbolt 3 and 4 ports are PD compatible. The 90W power Edge supplies may not be enough to power some performance or gaming laptops when under high load. We recommend connecting to Edge with the included USB-C cable if your computer has a USB-C port compatible with DisplayPort (DP) Alt Mode, as this will allow your computer to receive up to 90W charging as well as connect to Edge's Ethernet and USB-C Accessory Ports. It can be dicult to tell if your computer has a DP Alt Mode compatible USB-C port. The most reliable way to figure out which USB-C ports are DP Alt Mode compatible is to check your computer’s manual, or the manufacturer’s webpage. They are sometimes marked with a screen or DisplayPort icon. All Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 ports are compatible with DP Alt Mode and USB-C Power Delivery. All USB-C ports on modern MacBooks are either Thunderbolt 3 or 4. If your computer or device does not have a USB-C DP Alt Mode compatible port, we recommend connecting with the included HDMI cable, although DisplayPort oers the same visual quality if you have your own cable. USB-CAudio Jack Securing your Monitor You can physically secure Edge by connecting its Kensington Security Slot

to any standard Kensington Lock. Follow the instructions included with your lock to attach it.

On the latest versions of Windows, macOS and most versions of Linux, arranging two windows side by side is as easy as selecting and dragging an app or window to the edge of the screen, waiting until a translucent outline appears over half the screen, and releasing. For more information on these features and advanced tips, consult Microsoft and Apple’s ocial help pages. More complicated layouts can be set up and easily switched between using additional utilities, such as Microsoft’s “PowerToys FancyZones” for Windows, or the “Rectangle” application on macOS, which are available via Google or other search engines.

Brightness Adjusts the details in the brighter parts of the image. Contrast Adjusts the visual detail in the darker areas of your picture. Setting the contrast too high can result in distorted colours in your monitor’s brighter areas and reduced detail in the mid-tones. Preset Lets you select between preconfigured picture profiles. - “Standard” is designed for general computer use, with a slightly warm colour balance and average contrast and brightness. - “Movie” increases the colour vibrancy and contrast to make pictures more impressive, but less accurate. - “ECO” reduces the brightness and other settings to save power. - “User” sets everything to neutral, so that you can adjust everything yourself. Volume Adjusts how loud your monitor’s speakers are. Higher volumes may result in reduced audio quality. Aspect Ratio Allows you to specify your which aspect ratio your monitor should display the video signal in. This can be useful if it’s not correctly detecting the video signal and is stretching the image. Input Allows you to specify whether you want the monitor’s main input to display the signal from the HDMI, DisplayPort or USB-C port, or simply autodetect. This can be useful if the monitor isn’t correct detecting your video source, or when using Picture in Picture modes. Blue Light Shift Allows you to reduce the blue light your monitor is outputting. This can reduce eye strain, especially in darker in environments, but results in an warmer image. Adaptive Sync Enables or Disables Adaptive Sync. While playing video games, this can be useful to prevent screen tearing and synchronisation related stuttering.
