Connecting an External Monitor (Optional)

If you want the benefits of a larger display screen with higher

resolution, you can connect an external CRT monitor to your

computer through the optional docking station.

Follow this procedure to connect an external monitor:

1. Make sure the computer is not turned on.

2. Plug the monitor’s D-type signal connector to the docking station’s

VGA port.

3. Plug one end of the monitor’s power cord into the power socket on

the monitor and the other end to an electrical outlet.

4. To use the monitor, turn on the monitor before turning on the

computer.

5. The monitor should respond by default. If not, you can switch the

display to the monitor or to both (simultaneous displays) by pressing

Fn+

F9

. In Windows, you can also change the display through the

settings in Display Properties.

6. You can change display settings through your operating system. See

your operating system documentation or online help for specific

information.

CAUTION: Do not disconnect the external monitor while the computer is in Standby mode
or Suspend mode. If no external monitor is connected when the computer resumes, the

LCD remains blank and the output is not displayed.
