Using your computer in monitor mode
Your computer can work in two modes: computer mode or monitor mode. This section provides instructions
on how to use your computer in monitor mode.
To use your computer in monitor mode, you need to have a second computer. Connect one end of the VGA
cable to the VGA IN connector on the rear of your computer, and the other end to the VGA connector on
the second computer. Use the monitor mode control
on the front of your computer to switch your
computer between computer mode and monitor mode.
The following table shows the functions of each control when your computer works in computer mode
or monitor mode.
