Note
Default setting is simultaneous operation of the flat screen display and of an external
monitor. The display unit is optimized for a format of 1024*768 pixels (XGA) or
1400 x 1050 pixels (SXGA+). Modes with lower resolution and text mode are
expanded to this format.
If you connect an external monitor with lower resolution than the display, the resolution
of the display is reduced to the resolution of the external monitor in simultaneous
operation.
You can optimize the external monitor display via BIOS Setup in the Main menu item
Hardware Options ”CRT/LCD selection: CRT only”.
You can use the program Panel “Field PG” to easily switch among the active display
devices.
