Video Out to Monitor

Switching: If you have multiple audio/video inputs on your monitor, you can use your monitor as an audio/ video switch. You will probably not be able to use a remote control as a switch.

Connectors: For a monitor, choose one of the following Video Out connectors and cables:

■ VGA ■ DVI

Equipment: The monitor and some cables may not be included with the HP Digital Entertainment Center. See the documentation that came with your monitor.

Configuration: You can adjust the monitor display, after initial power up, using the Media Center software. See “Initial Configuration” on page 121.

Procedure: Connect a monitor video cable from the HP Digital Entertainment Center back panel Video Out directly to the monitor Video In.
