Using your Joybook
33
Using the HDMI output socket
HDMI supports uncompressed video data transmission
between compatible devices. With the HDMI output socket on
your Joybook, you can connect a separate audio or video device
that has an HDMI interface, such as an HDMI-capable display
device, projector, A/V receiver, or any compatible device.
To make the connection, you need to purchase an HDMI cable
separately, available in most electronics stores.
To connect an audio or video device that has an HDMI interface
to the HDMI output socket on your Joybook:
1. Plug one end of an HDMI cable to the HDMI output socket
on your Joybook.
2. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI input
socket on your audio or video device.
Also refer to the documentation that came with your device
for instructions.
3. If you connect your Joybook to an HDMI-capable LCD TV
or projector, the image will be displayed on your Joybook and
the connected device simultaneously.
To switch the image between your Joybook and the
connected device, press the <Fn> + <F3> hotkey
combination.
If the HDMI input socket on your connected device does not
support audio input, additional cabling is required. For
example, you can output the sound by connecting an audio
cable to the audio input socket on your device and the audio
output socket on your Joybook.
