It has the ability to use two display adapters simultaneously. Below is the list of devices that are supported per device ThinkPad T430, T430i, T430s, T430si, T530, T530i NVIDIA Graphics: NVIDIA NVS 5200M, NVIDIA NVS 5400M Intel Graphics : Intel HD Graphics Family ThinkPad W530 NVIDIA Graphics: NVIDIA Quadro K1000M or NVIDIA Quadro K2000M Intel Graphics : Intel HD Graphics Family DISPLAY TOPOLOGY Since Optimus Technology has the ability to use two display adapters, some display monitors (or displays) are assigned to specific adapter. Below describes which display adapter controls the display connector for a certain display monitor. ThinkPad T430, T430i, T530, T530i NVIDIA NVS 5400M - Computer's DisplayPort connector - Docking Station's DVI connector(s) or DisplayPort connector(s) Intel HD Graphics Family - (Computer's LCD) - Computer's analog VGA connector - Docking Station's analog VGA connector Thinkpad T430s, T430si NVIDIA NVS 5200M - No display is connected to this display adapter. Intel HD Graphics - (Computer's LCD) - Computer's analog VGA connector - Docking Station's analog VGA connector - Computer's DisplayPort connector - Docking Station's DVI connector(s) or DisplayPort connector(s) Note: To enable Triple Display Configuration, the connection must be either of the followings, a. DisplayPort + DisplayPort + Computer's LCD b. DisplayPort + DisplayPort + VGA c. DisplayPort + DisplayPort + DVI (one DisplayPort is connected to Computer's DisplayPort port) d. DisplayPort + DisplayPort + DisplayPort (one DisplayPort is connected to Computer's DisplayPort port) ThinkPad W530 NVIDIA Quadro K1000M or NVIDIA Quadro K2000M - Computer's analog VGA connector - Docking Station's analog VGA connector - Computer's DisplayPort connector - Docking Station's DVI connector(s) or DisplayPort connector(s) Intel HD Graphics Family - (Computer's LCD) DUAL ADAPTER CLONE Dual Adapter Clone is a technology where display output from one display adapter is cloned to another display adapter. This feature is unique for NVIDIA Optimus Technology starting from second generation Optimus technology. The only difference between cross adapter clone and traditional clone is that the former involves two display adapters while the latter involves only one. HOW TO CONFIGURE DUAL ADAPTER CLONE Dual Adapter Clone is only supported and be configured in NVIDIA Control Panel. As an example, the procedure below describes the steps on how to configure the dual adapter clone. Remember that the dual adapter clone involves two different graphics devices, so the 'Display Topology' section above will give you an idea which combinations can support dual adapter clone, otherwise, it is considered as a traditional clone. The procedure below assumes to use the LCD and DisplayPort monitor connected to the computer. 1. Attach a DisplayPort monitor to the computer. 2. Open the NVIDIA Control Panel, and on the left pane, select 'Setup multiple displays' under 'Display' tree. 3. On the right panel, under 'Select the display you want to use', check both LCD and DisplayPort monitor. 4. Under 'Verify your display configuration', right click on either the LCD or DisplayPort display icon. 5. Select 'Duplicate with 1 (use 2 as source)' then click Apply. Note: The Dual Adapter Clone can not be enabled by using the Windows display control panel or the Intel's display control panel. ================================================================================ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIMITATIONS Nothing. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRADEMARKS * Lenovo and ThinkPad are registered trademarks of Lenovo. * DisplayPort is a trademark of Video Electronics Standards Association. * Intel is a registered trademark of Intel Corporation. * Microsoft and Windows are registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation. * NVIDIA, Quadro and NVIDIA Quadro are registered trademarks of NVIDIA Corporation.
