I'm setting up my home office after retiring from a county Communications Director position. I used a CalDigit TS3 at work and ran two monitors off of it. I do a lot of video editing work, so I really would like to use two monitors.
In my home office, I am running a large 40" monitor through the CalDigit TS4 (DisplayPort connection). But when I try to connect a smaller second monitor via USB-C, it will not connect and is not recognized. The monitor will briefly power up and then display “No Signal”.
I have tried different ports on the rear of the TS4, swapped multiple TB4-rated cables (currently using a CalDigit TB4 cable), and cycled the CalDigit TS4.
If I connect the second monitor directly to my MacBook Pro (M2 Max), it shows right up and connects normally. However, I'd need to use the MacBook's ports for drives, not the monitor.
Does anyone have a similar experience and advice for me? Thanks in advance.
