STEP 2-DRIVER INSTALLATION FOR THE WIRELESS USB HOST ADAPTER
Your Wireless USB to VGA Adapter Kit has been pre-associated for you, meaning the Wireless USB Host
Adapter will automatically recognise the Wireless VGA Device Adapter upon being switched on. After
software installation, you should see the Wireless USB Manager icon in your Windows icon tray. Double-
click on this icon to open the manager utility.
The Wireless USB Manager will open and instruct you on
what to do next. Screw on one of the supplied dipole
antennae to the Wireless USB Host Adapter and connect
the Wireless USB Host Adapter to an available USB port
on your computer. You also have the option of
connecting the Wireless USB Host Adapter to the USB
Cradle provided in the package if you need to make the
adapter more mobile.

After the Activity Indicators come on, the TruLink DisplayLink Manager utility will activate and install an
icon in the Windows icon tray. Your TruLink Wireless USB To VGA Adapter Kit is now fully functional and
you are ready to use it.
Note: The default setting extends your desktop to the right, so you should see the desktop background on
the wireless display device but you will not see any icons initially. You can continue to use it in this setting,
allowing you to open applications and documents on the wireless display device to increase your viewing
area, or this can be switched to “Mirror” mode to clone your main display image. Settings are discussed
