Chapter 2
Connecting Other
External Devices
This chapter describes how to connect devices that can
increase the capabilities of your computer.
Using external display devices
Your computer comes with a built-in LCD display, but you
can also connect three different types of external display
devices to one of two available video ports:
❖
A television via the video-out (composite) port.
❖
A video display device, such as a video projection unit,
via the video-out (composite) port.
❖
An external monitor or projector via the RGB (monitor)
port.
Before connecting a television, video projector, monitor or
other display device, configure your computer for the type of
device you're connecting. To do this, refer to the
documentation for your operating system and devices.
