Configuring an External Monitor

Configuring an External Monitor

Although your unit is equipped with a touchscreen, you might want to
connect an external monitor.

You can configure the external monitor in the Windows Control Panel. In
Control Panel, when you select the duplicate displays feature, the
resolution of the external monitor is set to 800 x 600 automatically, which
corresponds to the default resolution of the touchscreen.

Although the maximum resolution of the touchscreen is 800 x 600, you can
select a higher resolution for the external monitor with the extend displays
feature. The smallest resolution that you will then be able to select for the
external monitor is 1024 x 768.

To configure an external monitor:
1.
Connect the external monitor to the Video Out port, located on the left

side of the unit.

2. From the main window, tap the System Settings button.
