Appendix B

Installing Options

This appendix describes how you install optional devices on

your LT-286e. You can install an external monitor, an external

diskette drive, an internal modem, an internal

1MB

memory

card, and an external keyboard. You can also install a

IBM AT-compatible expansion card and a math coprocessor.

Connecting an External Color Monitor

If you plan to use an external monitor with your Equity

LT-286e, follow the instructions below to connect it to the

computer:

1.

Be sure both the computer and monitor (as well as any

other peripheral devices) are turned off.

2. Turn the computer upside down and set the CRT/LCD slide

switch to CRT. This slide switch setting lets the computer

know you will be using a monitor instead of the LCD

screen. (See “Setting the Slide Switches” in Appendix A

for details.)

3. Turn the computer right side up with the front facing you.

4. Place your monitor near the Equity LT-286e.

5. If necessary, connect the monitor cable to the monitor.

(Some monitors come with permanently attached cables.)

6. Lower the interface cover on the right side of the computer.
