Connecting a computer display

You can connect a computer display (monitor) either directly to your computer or via the (optional) port
replicator.
To connect a computer display, proceed as follows:
1 If you want to connect a VGA monitor, plug the display
cable (1) (not supplied) on the notebook or on the port
replicator.
2 If you want to connect a TFT/DVI monitor, plug the
display cable (not supplied) into the DVI-D connector on
the port replicator.
3 If necessary, plug one end of the display's power cord
(3) into the display, and the other end into an AC outlet.
