video and audio data without reducing the quality. HDMI-compatible
external display devices including televisions can be connected via the
HDMI port.
To connect an HDMI-compatible display device, follow the steps as
detailed below:
As the port operation of all HDMI display devices have not been confirmed,
some HDMI display devices may not function properly.

cable.
1. Plug one end of the HDMI cable into the HDMI in port of the HDMI
display device.
2. Plug the other end of the HDMI cable into the HDMI out port on your
computer.
3. Turn the HDMI display device's power on.
