Attaching the Composite TV-Out Adapter

Cable

Your computer has a TV-out S-video connector for connecting a television to the
computer. To connect a television, perform the following steps:

1.

Save and close any open files, exit any open application programs, and shut down
the computer.

2.

If the television has an S-video cable, plug the cable directly into the computer
at the TV-out S-video connector. If the television has only a composite cable
connector, connect the composite TV-out adapter cable that came with your
computer to the TV-out S-video connector on the computer (see Figure 2-5),
and then connect the other end of the adapter cable to the television's
composite cable.

Figure 2-5. Using the Composite TV-Out Adapter Cable

NOTE: If your television did not come with a composite video cable, you can
purchase one from from a local electronics store.

3.

Turn on the computer.

4.

Press <Fn><F7> to toggle between the television and the display. To enable
simultaneous display on the television and the display, refer to “Changing Display
Properties” in the system Help for instructions.
