I am a Windows/macOS user. How do I properly install and set up a DisplayLink docking station (such as the DP1310)?

Windows:

Below is a brief description for Windows Users on how to install the DisplayLink driver correctly:

1. Delete the older version of the DisplayLink driver.
    If you have installed a previous version of DisplayLink driver before, which
    became outdated, please delete it. For more information on how to delete
    the driver, please refer to here for more information

2. Download the DisplayLink driver from the following website

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. DisplayLink
    automatically turns on when the system allows multiple monitor displays.

macOS:

Below is a brief description for macOS users on how to install the DisplayLink driver correctly:

1. Delete the older version of the DisplayLink driver.
    If you have installed a previous version of the DisplayLink driver before,
    which became outdated, please delete it. For more information on how
    to delete the driver, please refer to here for more information

2. Download the DisplayLink driver from the following website

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

4. Permit DisplayLink Manager to record your screen.

5. Set up your own DisplayLink Manager: if you are using macOS, many
    DisplayLink monitor settings can only be set up from DisplayLink Manager.
    Below is the detailed description:

• Automatically turn on DisplayLink Manager:
  It is best to turn DisplayLink Manager on to display multiple monitors. If the macOS default is off, you can turn on the "Launch automatically after login" option from the shortcut menu on DisplayLink.

• Use Apple Watch Unlock:
  Checking "Use Apple Watch to unlock on login screen" allows you to use Apple Watch on MacBook monitors to unlock the display. For more information, check here

    Note: this function is incompatible with screen savers. If you are about to
    use a DisplayLink device with an Apple Watch to unlock, you should avoid
    using a screensaver.

• Allow f.lux to be used with warm colors at night:
  If you use the third-party application f.lux to adjust monitor color, click "Allow f.lux to warm colors at night" to activate this feature.

• When switching off a laptop's monitor and also switching off the external monitor:
  When the MacBook is in use with DisplayLink docking stations such as DP1310, the MacBook can use the following two methods:

    1. Switch on the MacBook(open lid), allow the internal processor to switch
        on, and allow another monitor to be used together.
    2. Switch off the MacBook internal processor (close the lid) with other
        monitors. This method is called clamshell. In this mode, the MacBook
        must connect to an external power supply, keyboard, and mouse.

    If you check "Power save all displays and sleep in clamshell", closing
    the MacBook screen will automatically put the monitor into Sleep Mode.

• Rotate Monitor:
  If you use an Intel-based MacBook, you can use the macOS-preferred
  setup to rotate your monitor.
  If you are using an M1/M2 MacBook, you need to use the DisplayLink
  shortcut menu to rotate every monitor's angle, as shown below:
