Appendix B
Portable and Laptop Activation Chart
Many laptop computers do not automatically turn on their external
video port when a projector is connected. Activation commands for
some laptop computers are listed in the following table. (If your
computer is not listed or the given command does not work, refer to
the computer’s documentation for the appropriate command.) On
many laptops, the activation function key is labeled with an icon, for
example or the text CRT/LCD.
Note: Usually, pressing the key commands once activates the
external video port, pressing it again activates both the
external and internal ports, and pressing it a third time
activates the internal port. Refer to your computer
documentation for details on your specific model.
