How to install Plugable Laptop Docking Station Dual Monitor for USB-C or USB 3.0

Installing the UD-3900C is designed to be quick and straightforward, so you can start increasing productivity in minutes rather than hours.

Step 1: Connect the UD-3900C to your laptop using either a USB-C cable or a USB 3.0 cable, depending on what your device supports. Ensure the connection is secure and the dock is connected to a power source if your setup requires it.

Step 2: Attach two external displays to the appropriate video output ports on the dock. Position each display as you prefer and turn them on. In your operating system, open the display settings and arrange the monitors so that the desktop extends across both screens in the order you desire.

Step 3: Connect peripherals such as your keyboard, mouse, external storage, and any printers or audio devices to the dock’s USB ports and audio jack. This creates a centralized hub so you can access all essential tools from one location without reaching for the laptop.

Step 4: Power on or wake your laptop. In most cases, Windows or macOS will automatically detect the dock and install any necessary drivers. If prompted, follow on-screen instructions to complete any driver or firmware updates, and verify that both displays and connected peripherals operate as expected.

Step 5: Save time with a configured setup. Once you have your preferred display arrangement and peripheral mapping, consider saving these settings in your OS so that reconnecting the UD-3900C on future sessions yields the same productive environment with minimal effort.
