Connecting a Television to the
Computer
Your computer has an S-video TV-out connector that enables you to
connect the computer to a television. Using a commercially available
S-video cable or composite video cable, you can connect the computer to a
television in one of two ways:

connection combination
appear at the beginning of
each subsection to help
you determine which
method you should use.
• S-video (for a television with an S-video input)
• Composite video (for a television with only a composite video input;
also uses the Dell-supplied composite TV-out adapter cable)
The audio connector on the side of the computer enables you to connect
the computer to your television or audio device, using a commercially
available audio cable.
When you complete the cable connection, see "Enabling the Display
Settings for a Television" on page 47 to ensure that the computer recognizes
and works properly with the television.
