Multi-Monitor Display
When both the client and host have multiple monitors, host-side monitors can be cloned "one-to-one" to the client. Screens are automatically cloned upon connection.
When using the Client to connect, this "one-to-one cloning" happens automatically upon connection. You can also click the Monitors icon to switch between host-side monitors.

- The Java and HTML remote control clients do not offer multiple monitor support.
- To get full support of all multi-monitor features, you must use HDMI, DVI, or VGA monitor cable. Other cable types may not offer all multi-monitor features.
- Make sure you have the latest host software version installed on your remote host. See How do I update to the latest version of the host software?. Central users with the Insight module can also make sure the host software is automatically updated on multiple hosts.
