screwdriver.

5. If necessary, plug the monitor’s power cable first into the

power inlet on the monitor. (Some monitors come with
permanently attached power cables.) Then plug the power
cable into an electrical outlet.

6. Turn off DIP switch 4 above the keyboard to let the

computer know you will be using a monitor instead of the
LCD screen. (See “Setting the DIP Switches” in Chapter 1.)

When you are ready to use the computer, turn on the

monitor and any other peripherals, and then turn on the

computer. Text will be displayed on the monitor screen instead

of the computer screen.

If you need to replace the electroluminescent element in the

backlit screen, follow the instructions below. The procedure has

many steps, but they are not difficult. Still, you must be very

careful not to damage any components on or inside the screen.

If you have any reservations about doing this yourself, ask your

dealer to install it for you.

1. Turn off all peripherals and the computer before you begin.

2. Use a flat blade screwdriver to remove the plastic tops of

the brightness and contrast switches.
