Second monitor to laptop

[EvgeniyBoiko]

Hello, we all saw when not one, but two monitors are installed on the computer. Please tell me, is it possible to add a second monitor to my laptop via hdmi!? Which cable do you need to purchase and which monitors are more suitable for it !? Thanks you!

@EvgeniyBoiko Greetings from the HP Community!

I suggest you go through the details of this article on how to work with USB Type-C ports: click here

as per the product specifications, you've got:

• 1 USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 (Data Transfer up to 5 Gb/s, DP1.2, HP Sleep and Charge);
• 3 USB 3.1 Gen 1 (1 HP Sleep and Charge);

I suggest you try USB to Display port with an addition/alternate monitor and check if that works.

Keep us posted,

I don’t know if the cable is suitable for the Samsung SyncMaster 940N monitor

@EvgeniyBoiko I see that the Samsung SyncMaster 940N monitor is quite old and has only a VGA interface, and I agree with you, that may not work with the computer, 

I suggest you go for a new monitor to make this work, or check with Samsung for more details.
