The answer is -- not easily.

 

The specs I found show this model has an HDMI port, but no second video port.

 

So to use a second monitor, you would have to look online for a USB-to-Video adapter to which you can connect a video cable to a second monitor.  Even then, it might not work as I had to try several of these a couple of years ago when I was faced with the same problem.

Hi WAWood, your reply is very helpful,  I have already bought a couple of adaptors usb-c port to hdmi and usb-b to hdmi to no avail...did you manage to get your 2nd display screen to work in the end? If so do you have the product type for the adaptor. 

Your help is much appreciated

Sorry, don't remember the brand of adapter -- but the key issues was that the drivers were supplied by DisplayLink -- so they worked without issue.
