170 Expansion Options Using an external monitor Selecting video cables To connect a device to the video-out port, you need a video cable (not included with your system). For the best video quality, always use a properly shielded cable. HINT: Toshiba recommends using a cable no longer than 20 feet (approximately 6 meters). Using a poor quality cable may result in a dull or fuzzy picture, poor color, ghosting, video noise, or loss of video. Connecting a device to the video-out port 1 Connect one end of the video cable to the external video device. Refer to the documentation provided with the device for the location of its television signal-in jack. 2 Connect the other end of the video cable to the video-out port on the computer. 3 Connect the external device's power cable to a live electrical outlet. 4 Turn on the external video device. 5 Set the display mode by pressing Fn + F5, or by changing the Display Properties settings. For more information, see "Directing the display output when you turn on the computer" on page 171. TECHNICAL NOTE: If you are connecting to a television, you may need to change the display properties. Most televisions use or support an 800 x 600 standard resolution.
