Attaching an External Monitor
Attaching an External Monitor
This section provides information about using the computer LCD and
an external monitor (CRT).
It also provides considerations when
using DOS applications.
The LCD of your computer uses thin-film transistor (
TFT
) technology.
The LCD displays output with XGA (1024x768) or SXGA
(1280x1024) resolution video mode and 16M colors.
If you are attaching an external monitor (CRT) that supports a
resolution higher than VGA mode, you can achieve a maximum of
1600x1200 video resolution.
To attach an external monitor, do the following:
1
Power off the computer.
2
Connect the external monitor to the external-monitor
connector (
) at the rear of the computer; then connect
the monitor to an electrical outlet.
3
Power on the monitor and the computer.

See “ThinkPad Configuration Program” on page
26.
