Displayport Multistreaming - HP EliteDisplay E24d G4 User Manual

DisplayPort multistreaming

If you are using USB Type-C or DisplayPort as the primary video input source, you can multistream to other
DisplayPort monitors connected in a daisy chain configuration.
The number of monitors you can connect through DisplayPort multistreaming depends on a number of
factors, including the resolutions and scan rates used for each monitor and the capabilities of your GPU or
embedded graphics system. Check the manual that came with your graphics card for further information
about its capabilities.
NOTE: For optimal daisy chain performance on the 60.5 cm (23.8 in) monitor, it is recommended that you
use an FHD monitor as the second monitor.
For optimal daisy chain performance on the 68.6 cm (27 in) monitor, it is recommended that you use a QHD 60
Hz or FHD 60 Hz monitor as the second monitor. It is also recommended that you adjust the settings in the
OSD. Select Input, and then select USB-C Video. Also select USB-C Configuration, and then select USB 2.0.
Disconnect and connect the USB Type-C cable to complete the change.
To multistream:
1. Connect a cable between the USB Type-C port on the computer and the USB Type-C with DisplayPort
upstream connector on the monitor, or connect a cable between the DisplayPort connector on the
computer and the DisplayPort connector on the monitor.
2. Add a second monitor by connecting a cable between the DisplayPort out port on the primary monitor
and the DisplayPort in port on a secondary monitor.
3. Set a connected monitor to display the same image as the primary monitor or a different image.
4. If you want different information on each screen, be sure that all upstream monitors are configured to
DisplayPort 1.2 mode.
