Install the docking station

The docking station is natively supported when connected to a compatible operating
system (see the System requirements section for supported operating systems).
It should automatically detect and install the required drivers once connected to a
Thunderbolt 3 port on your host laptop.
Follow the below sections and steps to properly set up the docking station.

Power the docking station

When the docking station is plugged in and powered, you can use USB power delivery
to power and charge your laptop through its Thunderbolt 3 USB-C port. The docking
station cannot receive power from the host laptop, so the power adapter must always
be connected to the docking station.
The docking station is configured to USB power delivery profile 1, providing
approximately 15 watts to each Thunderbolt 3 port. The rate at which the docking
station charges your laptop depends entirely on how much power the laptop typically
draws using its included power adapter.
1. Select the appropriate power cord for your region and connect it to the power
adapter.
2. Connect the power adapter to an AC electrical outlet and then to the docking
station's DC IN (power input) port. The docking station should now be receiving
power.

Connect the docking station

1. Connect your external display(s) to the docking station (example, DisplayPort or
Thunderbolt 3 displays).
Note: See the Configure a display device section for dual-display configuration
requirements.
2. Connect your peripherals to the docking station (example, USB devices, RJ 45
network).
3. Connect the provided Thunderbolt 3 cable to a Thunderbolt 3 port on your host
laptop and to one of the Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports on the docking station.
Note: Either of the Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports on the docking station can be used to
connect to your host laptop.

Install the drivers

Once the docking station is powered and connected to your host laptop, the required
drivers should automatically install.
You might see a pop-up message requesting permission to allow the docking station
to connect to your computer. If you see this pop-up message, do the following:
