3.3 Connecting the Monitors

The Xebec Tri-Screen 2 offers versatile connectivity options. Identify the available ports on your laptop to determine the appropriate connection method.

3.3.1 Laptops with Two USB-C Display Ports

This is the most common and convenient connection, providing both video and power through a single cable.

1. Connect first display: Plug the 90-degree end of one USB-C to USB-C cable into one of the USB-C inputs on the Tri-Screen 2. Plug the other end into a USB-C display port on your laptop.
2. Connect second display: Repeat the process for the second display using the other USB-C to USB-C cable and another USB-C display port on your laptop.
3. Pass-through charging: If your laptop's USB-C ports also support charging, you can plug your laptop's charger directly into one of the Tri-Screen's USB-C inputs to charge both your laptop and the displays simultaneously. An included 90-degree USB-C elbow adapter can be used for a cleaner setup.

3.3.2 Laptops with HDMI Ports (and USB for Power)

If your laptop has an HDMI output but lacks sufficient USB-C display ports, you will need an HDMI cable for video and a USB cable for power.

1. Connect HDMI for video: Plug the larger HDMI end of the HDMI to Mini-HDMI cable into your laptop's HDMI port. Plug the Mini-HDMI end into the Mini-HDMI input on the Tri-Screen 2.
2. Connect USB for power: Since HDMI only carries a video signal, you will need an additional power cable. Use the USB-C to USB-A adapter with a USB-C cable. Plug the USB-A end into your laptop's USB-A port and the USB-C end into a USB-C input on the Tri-Screen 2.
3. Repeat for second display: If your laptop has two HDMI inputs and sufficient USB-A ports, repeat this process for the second display.
