You can connect an external VGA monitor to this connector.

12 LPT1

Caution

Ensure that you use shielded cables and metal plugs to connect the peripheral units; if this is not done, the approval for operation will be invalid! Screw down the plugs of the interface cables to the PC housing by means of a screwdriver. You thereby improve the electrical shielding.

If expansion modules have been inserted in the PC, there are additional ports. Please refer to the description of the respective module for their purpose.
