CHAPTER 3: Installation
4A. If you are using a
local Macintosh monitor
with the Portable Pro, plug one
end of the monitor’s video cable into the monitor’s video-input port.
Plug the other end into the DA15 female end of the included Macintosh
monitor-adapter cable (the
short
cable marked “MAC”). Plug the DE15
male end of the monitor-adapter cable into the Portable Pro’s VGA OUT
port (component 3 in Fig. 2-1).
NOTE
For a local Macintosh monitor, the Portable Pro supports
Apple 14-inch
monitors only
. It does
not
support Apple 12-inch or 16-inch monitors.
4B. If you are using a
local VGA monitor
with the Portable Pro, do not use the
monitor-adapter cable mentioned in step 4A; plug the monitor’s video
cable directly into the Portable Pro’s VGA OUT port. (As stated in Step
2, the VGA
↔
MAC switch must be in the VGA position.)
4C. If you
aren’t using a local monitor
with the Portable Pro, you must plug
the included DE15 male dummy terminator into the Portable Pro’s VGA
OUT connector. This terminator emulates an Apple 14-inch monitor
and enables the computer to operate properly.
The rest of the installation procedure (steps 5 through 9) is the same as that
for VGA systems; see pages 15 and 17.
