Configuring the Macintosh Monitor Mode
Most Macintosh PowerBooks allow you to configure the external
monitor in two ways:
•
Mirror Mode - The external monitor reflects whatever appears
on the PowerBook screen.
•
Dual Monitor Mode - The external monitor increases the size of
the workspace, allowing you to drag windows or applications
from one monitor to another.
Note: Newer PowerBooks such as the 2400s and 3400s do not
support dual monitor mode. When the TView Silver is
connected to these models, it defaults to external
monitor mode, and the PowerBook’s internal screen is
turned off.
When the TView Silver is connected to the PowerBook, and the
PowerBook is initially turned on, it defaults to the dual monitor mode.
To ensure that the PowerBook recognizes the second monitor, select
"Monitors" from the control panel. If two monitors are recognized, you
will see two monitor icons.
