External Display
Precautions
When the application running is not shown on the display, refer to the
following items.
(Under the condition the application is in the external display (external
display [2]), or after the application is closed in the external display, there
are cases the application will not be shown in the display when executed
the next time if the position of the extended display is changed or the
Dualview is closed.)
When there is no display after the position of the extended display is
changed:
The application running is being displayed at the position of the ex-
tended display before the change. Return the position of the extended
display to the condition before the change. Move the application to the
internal LCD (internal LCD [1]), and then correct the position of the
extended display.
When there is no display when the Dualview is disabled:
The application running is being displayed in the extended display (ex-
ternal display [2]). Set the Dualview again, move the application from
the external display (external display [2]) to the internal LCD (internal
LCD [1]) and then disable the Dualview.
When the Dualview is used, set [Never] for [Plugged in] and [Running on
batteries] for [Turn off monitor] in [Control Panel] - [Performance and Main-
tenance] - [Power Options] - [Power Schemes].
If this setting is not made, there are cases the display will not be shown
properly.
To prevent images from being burned onto the external display, manually
shut off the power to the external display when the display does not have
to be used.
When the display domain for the Dualview is changed, there are cases
the wallpaper and icons become displaced.
Wallpaper: Change the setting for the wallpaper.
Icons: Run the command to automatically realign the icons. (Auto Ar-
range)
When an animated pointer is used for the mouse pointer (e.g., when chang-
ing the theme in [Appearance and Themes] of [Control Panel]), an error
may occur when resuming from the standby or hibernation mode. In such
cases, change the mouse pointer to the standard pointer with the follow-
ing procedure.
1
In [Control Panel], select [Printers and Other Hardware] - [Mouse].
2
Select [Pointers].
3
Select [Windows Default (system scheme)] in [Scheme], then select
[OK].
When an external display not compatible with VESA DPMS is used, there
are cases the display of the external display will be adversely affected
when the LCD panel is closed. In such cases, turn the power of the exter-
nal display OFF.
