To use a TV set as monitor
You can connect your computer to a television set and then use it as a display. On some
notebook PC models, the computer’s LCD display continues to be active when you use a
TV set.
To connect a TV set
1.
Connect a video cable (75 Ohm, with compatible RCA plugs) from the TV set to the
TV output port on the rear of the computer or the port replicator. (You don’t need to
turn the computer off.)
2.
Connect an audio cable from the computer’s headphone audio jack (using a 3.5mm or
1/8” stereo plug) to the left and right audio jacks (using two RCA plugs) on the TV
set.
3.
Connect the TV set to a power source and turn it on.
