Quitting SCSI disk mode
1 Shut down the computer your PowerBook is connected to.
2 Press the Power (
P
) key once to get the Shut Down dialog box.
3 Click Shut Down to turn the PowerBook off.
4 Turn off any other SCSI devices in the chain.
5 Disconnect the PowerBook from the adapter cable.
If you plan to connect your PowerBook regularly to the same computer, you
can leave the adapter cable attached to the SCSI chain or the other computer.
IMPORTANT
Do not leave the adapter cable attached to the PowerBook. If you
do, the computer will behave as though it is still in SCSI disk mode when you
try to restart.
6 If necessary, disconnect the adapter cable from the other computer or its SCSI chain.
Your equipment is now ready for normal use. If you disconnected the adapter
cable from the other computer or SCSI chain, make sure that the SCSI chain
is properly terminated.
Connecting an external monitor
An external monitor connected to your computer can function as an extension
of your PowerBook’s built-in screen—that is, you can drag objects from one
screen to another and do your work on either one. Or you can show the same
image on both screens.
Your PowerBook has a video port to which you can connect most Apple
monitors. To connect an external monitor, you need the PowerBook video
adapter cable, which is available from your Apple-authorized dealer. Contact
your Apple-authorized dealer to purchase a video adapter cable, and for
information on which monitors are compatible with your PowerBook.
Your PowerBook also supports most VGA and SVGA monitors. To connect a
VGA or SVGA monitor, you need an additional adapter cable, which should
come from the same source as the monitor.
