Connecting a projector or an external monitor

This topic provides information about connecting a projector or an external monitor.
Using an external monitor
Note: When you connect an external monitor, a video interface cable with a ferrite core is required.
Your computer can support a maximum video resolution of up to 1920x1200 (with an external monitor
attached to the VGA connector) or up to 1920x1080 (with an external monitor attached to the HDMI
connector), provided that the external monitor also supports that resolution. For more details, refer to
the manuals provided with your monitor.
You can set any resolution for either the computer display or the external monitor. When you use both at the
same time, the resolution of both is the same. If you set a higher resolution for the computer display, you
can see only part of the screen at a time. You can see other parts by moving the image with the TrackPoint
pointing device or another pointing device.
You can move the display output to the computer display, the external monitor, or both by changing settings
in the Display Settings window.
Connecting an external monitor
To connect an external monitor, do the following:
1. Connect the external monitor to the monitor connector; then connect the monitor to an electrical outlet.
2. Turn on the external monitor.
