Getting Started<br />

Using external display devices<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 Press Fn and F5 simultaneously.<br />

2 While holding down Fn, press F5 repeatedly until the setting<br />

you want takes effect. Briefly pause each time you press the F5<br />

key to allow time for the display to change.<br />

This hot key cycles through the settings in the following order<br />

(the last two options are available if an external monitor is<br />

connected):<br />

❖ Built-in display only<br />

❖ Built-in display and external monitor simultaneously<br />

❖ External monitor only<br />

❖ Built-in display and external monitor (extended desktop)<br />

❖ Swap-Switch primary display between internal display<br />

and external monitor when using extended desktop<br />
