in the "Technical Data" chapter in the EasyGuide.
You can use a key combination to switch back and forth between the external monitor and
the notebook?s LCD screen. More information about the device-speci

Connecting an external monitor to the notebook

►
Connect the data cable of the external monitor directly to the VGA port
or the DVI port of the notebook.

First switch on the monitor and then the notebook.
When the notebook is connected to a Port Replicator, the operating system creates
a hardware pro

indicates the last screen that was used for output. This pro
fi
le is loaded whenever
the notebook is connected to a Port Replicator of the same type.
