Using the S-Video-out jack

The 7-pin S-Video-out jack connects the computer to an optional S-Video device such as a television,
VCR, camcorder, overhead projector, or video capture card.

The computer can support one S-Video device connected to the S-Video-out jack, while simultaneously
supporting an image on the computer display or on any other supported external display.

NOTE

To transmit video signals through the S-Video-out jack, you need an S-Video cable,

available from most electronics retailers. If you are combining audio and video functions, such
as playing a DVD movie on your computer and displaying it on your television, you also need a
standard audio cable connected to the headphone jack, available from most electronics retailers.

To connect a video device to the S-Video-out jack:

1.

Plug one end of the S-Video cable into the S-Video-out jack on the computer.

2.

Connect the other end of the cable to the video device, as instructed in the documentation included
with the device.

3.

Press the

keys to switch the image between display devices connected to the computer.
