The attached monitor is set as your main display (showing the Windows task bar at the 
bottom of the screen), and your laptop screen is set as your extended display (showing your 
Windows desktop). You can change the display configurations settings; see

Video Modes 

Kensington Docking Stations and Multi-Display Adapters increase the amount of visible 
workspace available to you by allowing you to extend your laptop's desktop onto multiple 
displays.  
 
When extending your laptop's desktop to a second display, one of the displays must always 
be the "main" or "primary" display. The Windows taskbar typically appears on the main 
display.  
 
The video output can easily be configured to meet your workspace needs. You may wish to 
adjust the settings based on the location of the monitor on your desk and on your personal 
preferences.
