Using External Display Devices

Using external display devices such as a monitor, projector, TV, etc allows you to view screen images alternatively or simultaneously on each device. You can also split a screen into two display devices, or view dif- ferent images on each display device. Using external display devices is especially useful when you are giving a presentation or watching a movie through your TV.

Switching Display Devices Using the Shortcut Key

You can watch the screen through either the LCD or an external display device, or you can even watch the screen through both the LCD and an external display device simultaneously.

1.Connect the external display device (e.g. a monitor or a projector) to the corre- sponding port of the system.

To connect a TV, connect the TV to the TV output port of the system.

2.Press the <Fn> + < > key. Provided that an external display device is con- nected, the display option changes in LCD > CRT > LCD+CRT order whenever the

<Fn> + < > key is pressed.

Note Provided that multiple external display devices are connected, the display option

changes in LCD > CRT > LCD+CRT > TV order whenever the <Fn>+< > key is pressed. You cannot view the screen via the LCD, CRT, and TV simultaneously.

In the full screen DOS mode of Windows, <Fn> + < > keys do not work.

If you configure display device to display on both LCD and CRT, and start the sys- tem with DOS, some vertical noises may appear on the screen.

Using Dual View to View Extended Screen

You can expand the screen into two display devices and work conveniently in separate workspaces.

In Dual View mode, you can select the screen resolution and color quality for each display device, as if there were two separate graphics cards.
