Getting Started<br />
Using external display devices<br />
Connecting an external monitor or projector<br />
You can easily attach an external monitor or projector to your<br />
computer if you need a larger screen. To do this:<br />
1 Read the directions that came with the monitor to see if you<br />
first need to install new software.<br />
2 Connect the monitor’s video cable to the RGB (monitor) port<br />
on the side of the computer.<br />
3 Connect the device’s power cable to a live electrical outlet.<br />
4 Turn on the external device.<br />
Your computer will automatically detect the external display<br />
device and activate a screen with display options.<br />
5 Select the settings you desire and click Apply.<br />
6 Click OK.<br />
In the future you can change the display settings by pressing Fn+F5,<br />
or by configuring the display properties settings.<br />
Directing the display output when you turn on the computer<br />
NOTE<br />
Once you have connected an external display device, you can<br />
choose to use the internal display only, the external device only, or<br />
both simultaneously.<br />
Some modes are only available with the appropriate device attached<br />
and turned on.<br />
The quickest way to change the display output settings is to use the<br />
display hot key (Fn + F5):<br />
1 While holding down Fn, press F5 repeatedly, pausing between<br />
each press, until the setting you want takes effect.<br />
This hot key cycles through the settings in the following order:<br />
❖ Built-in display only<br />
❖ Built-in display and external monitor simultaneously<br />
❖ External monitor only<br />
❖ Built-in display and TV (or other external video device)<br />
simultaneously<br />
❖ TV (or other external video device) only
