Disconnecting Your Docking Station from Your Notebook
To disconnect the Docking Station, simply unplug the USB cable from your laptop. You do not
need to shut down your laptop before disconnecting.
Any windows that were open on the attached display automatically move to your laptop
screen, and the attached monitor goes blank.
The Docking Station software automatically remembers your last configuration. So if, for
instance, you were using the attached monitor as your main display, it returns to this state
when you reconnect the Docking Station. However, windows that were previously open on the
attached monitor do not return to it. See Video Modes for more information.
Warning: If you have an external hard drive or flash drive connected to the Docking Station, to
prevent data loss, make sure the drive can be safely removed before disconnecting the
Docking Station. Use the "Safely Remove Hardware" function from the taskbar before
removing the USB cable from your laptop.

Kensington Docking Stations and Multi-Display Adapters increase the amount of visible
workspace available to you by allowing you to extend your laptop's desktop onto multiple
displays.
When extending your laptop's desktop to a second display, one of the displays must always
be the "main" or "primary" display. The Windows taskbar typically appears on the main
display.
The video output can easily be configured to meet your workspace needs. You may wish to
adjust the settings based on the location of the monitor on your desk and on your personal
preferences.
