When you turn on the power, the computer will automatically recognize the
monitor and determine whether it is a color or monochrome device. In the

correct monitor, you should consider using the FN + F5 hot key to change
the display settings (if you then disconnect the external monitor before you
turn the computer’s power off, be sure to press FN + F5 hot key again to
switch to the internal display).
