External monitor

An external analog monitor can be connected to the external monitor port on the
computer, Port Replicator. The computer supports VGA and Super VGA video
modes. To connect a monitor, follow the steps below.
CAUTION: If an external monitor is connected to the computer, do not
connect the Port Replicator. First disconnect the external monitor from
the computer then connect the Port Replicator and use its external
monitor port.
NOTE: The Resume feature can be used with an external monitor. Simply
enable Resume and the computer will maintain the data as it is displayed
on the external monitor.
1. Connect the monitor to the external monitor port.
2. Turn the monitor's power on.
When you turn on the power, the computer automatically recognizes the monitor
and determines whether it is color or monochrome.
You can use the HW Setup to select between Auto-Selected and
Simultaneous displays. Refer to Chapter 7, HW Setup and Passwords.
If you have selected Simultaneous under the Display options of the HW
Setup, both the external monitor and the internal LCD will be active when you turn
on the computer. If Auto-Selected is selected, only the external monitor will
be active.
To change the display settings, press Fn + F5. If you disconnect the monitor before
you turn the computer off, be sure to press Fn + F5 to switch to the internal display.
Refer to Chapter 5, The Keyboard, for details on using hotkeys to change the
display setting.
NOTE: If you set Simultaneous for the computer's display, you
must set the computer's display resolution to the same as that of the
external monitor or other device, such as a projector.
