repeating shutdown of screens in clamshell mode

Doktör · 12-17-2020, 03:54 PM

Hello,

I have macOS BıgSUR and downloaded the software today; connected my early 2015 macbook pro to a targus docking station, which has two philipps 241B7Q external screens connected. When I put the macbook to clamshell mode, it goes dark first. But then when I click on the keyboard or mouse, it wakes up again, which is fine so far. however only after few seconds, the screens go black again all of a sudden (and keep repeating this indefinitely) and when I click on the mouse, they go live back, but ask for my access password. So basically it keeps going back to sleep again and again when in clamshell mode.

How can I solve this problem?
Thanks,
Doc
