What happens here

With the second Base Case unit securely stacked, locate its IO panel. Connect a second power cable to power the upper unit. If your laptop has multiple USB-C ports with video output, connect a second USB-C cable from the laptop to the upper Base Case. Alternatively, if using a docking station, connect the second USB-C cable from the docking station to the upper unit. Once all power and data cables are connected to both units and the laptop, power on the entire system. The 'Quadzilla command center' should now be operational, extending your laptop's display across all four monitors, ready for multi-tasking or detailed work.

Goal: Make the quad-monitor workstation fully operational.
