properly if both are connected at the same time.
When using an external display, connect the display to the Ext Display connector,
but do not connect a television to the Video Out connector.
If using a television, connect the television to the Video Out connector, but do not
connect any external display to the Ext Display connector.
You can switch screens with
the remote control. For details,
see “About the Remote
Control” (p. 34).
NOTE
Confirm that your display is
compatible with the
frequencies listed to the left.
Using a display that is not
compatible with the left
frequencies may result in
incorrect image output when
images move, and in certain
cases may even damage the
display.
NOTE
You cannot display
information or images with
an external display when a
television is connected to
the Video Out jack. To use
an external display, first
disconnect the television
from the Video Out jack,
then connect the external
display.
