Using external display devices

Directing the display output when you turn on the computer

Once you have connected an external display device, you can choose to use the internal display only, the external device only, or both simultaneously. The quickest way to change the display output settings is to use the display hot key (Fn + F5):

1Press Fn and F5 simultaneously.

2While holding down Fn, press F5 repeatedly until the setting you want takes effect. Briefly pause each time you press the F5 key to allow time for the display to change.

This hot key cycles through the settings in the following order:Built-in display onlyBuilt-in display and external monitor simultaneouslyExternal monitor onlyBuilt-in display and TV (available on certain models)TV only (available on certain models)(Sample Image) Display options window3Release the Fn key.
