What video resolutions does the docking station support?

The HDMI port supports up to 3840x2160@30Hz and the VGA port supports up to 2560x1600@120Hz. When using both ports simultaneously (mirrored), the maximum resolution is 1920x1080@60Hz.

Can I charge my laptop through the docking station?

Yes, if your laptop's USB Type-C port supports Power Delivery, the dock can pass through up to 65W to charge the connected notebook.

Does the dock work with any USB Type-C laptop?

The dock requires the host USB Type-C port to support DisplayPort Alt Mode for video output and ideally Power Delivery for charging. Thunderbolt 3 ports are also compatible.

What operating systems are supported?

The dock is compatible with Windows 10 and macOS. Limited functionality may be available on Chrome OS.

How do I connect the docking station?

Connect the integrated USB Type-C cable to your laptop. Then connect your peripherals (monitor, USB devices, Ethernet) to the dock. Drivers install automatically.

Why is my USB mouse not working properly on a Chromebook?

When connected to a Chromebook, the USB Type-A mouse may experience a delay of a few seconds. This is a known issue with similar adapters.

Starting up

Requirements:

• Host computer with an available USB Type-C ^TM port (to ensure full dock functionality, the host USB Type-C ^TM port must support USB Power Delivery and DisplayPort ^TM Alt Mode or Thunderbolt ^TM 3).
• Any of the following operating systems: Windows ^ 10, macOS ^

Note: The docking station can still connect to a host computer with a USB Type-C ^TM port that does NOT support Power Delivery (must still support DisplayPort ^TM Alt Mode). In this configuration, the docking station will NOT provide power to your host notebook.

USB Type-C™

Not all USB Type-C ^™ ports support the full functionality of the USB Type-C ^™ standard. Some ports might only provide data transfers, and might not support video or Power Delivery over USB.

To use this dock to its full potential, ensure that the host USB Type-C ^TM port from your computer supports DisplayPort ^TM Alt Mode, as well as USB Power Delivery or Thunderbolt 3 ^TM .

Also please see the USB Type-C ≠ USB Type-C info-box on the next site.

The dock will automatically install some of the required drivers once it is connected to your notebook's USB Type-C ^v port. If you receive a prompt to automatically install the driver(s), follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

- Connect your external display to the DockingStation's video port.

Note: Video output capabilities are dependent on the video card and hardware specifications of your connected host notebook. Certain graphic cards have limited support, while some monitors will also limit the output resolution.

Configure a display device

Please setup your display settings accordingly to your operating system and requirements. For detailed information, see the corresponding operation manual and description of your operating system.

Supported video resolutions, the DockingStation supports:

• Ultra HD resolution via HDMI® if the connected HDMI® display supports it.
  • Full HD resolution via VGA if the connected VGA display supports it.

Number of attached displays	Video output configuration	Maximum resolution/monitor
1 HDMI	^	3820x2160p@30 Hz
1 VGA 2560x1600@120Hz
2 (only mirrored among each other)	HDMI ^ + VGA max 2x	920x1080@60 Hz(based on VGA resolution)

Important:

When connecting the USB Type-C ^TM plug of the IB-DK4023-CPD to a Chromebook ^TM , the mouse to be connected to the USB 3.0 Type-A port will not work immediately; it will have seconds' delay. This problem also occurs in other similar Type-C ^TM adapter (including Apple original 3 in 1 adapter) when connected with Chromebook ^TM .

Attention! When plugging in and out a Power Delivery adapter to the Type-C™ interface of the IB-DK4023-CPD, the connected USB devices will get disconnected flashily and then reconnect in a few seconds, so to prevent possible data loss or corruption, avoid (dis-)connecting the Power Delivery adapter from AC power while transferring data.

USB Type-C ≠ USB Type-C

Important!

This ICY BOX product requires the usage of DisplayPort™ Alt Mode technology over the USB Type-C™ connector. Not all computers, notebooks or tablets with a USB Type-C™ interface support the DisplayPort™ Alt Mode.

Please check the specifications of your computer system as well as its USB Type-C™ interface or use the ICY BOX product with a Thunderbolt 3 connector.
