If you are connecting an Apple or Apple-compatible monitor, locate the adapter that

came with your computer and attach it to one end of the external monitor’s cable.

The monitor adapter is a small plastic and metal device that is the same
granite color as the computer. The part number M0322 is on the adapter.

If you are connecting a VGA or SVGA monitor, skip this step.

Make sure the other end of the monitor’s cable is attached to the monitor. Then attach

the end of the cable with the monitor adapter to the external monitor port (

) on the

back of the PowerBook.

If you are connecting a VGA or SVGA monitor, do not use the adapter.
Connect the monitor cable directly to the external monitor port on the
PowerBook.

Turn on the external monitor.

Press the Power (

π

) key to turn on your computer. (You can press any key if your

PowerBook is in sleep.)

The external monitor is automatically activated. You can use the Control Strip
