HDMI-In Port
This computer features an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) input port that allows you to display
external sources such as Blu-ray players, DVDs, set top boxes and games consoles etc. on your computer screen.
The computer itself does not need to be powered on to display video and audio from external HDMI input
sources. As long as the computer is plugged-in to a power source using the AC/DC adapter (the HDMI-In port
will not function under battery power), simply plug-in the HDMI cable from the external device to the com-
puter’s HDMI-In port and the computer will act as the display device.
Mode Toggle
Press and hold the mode toggle button to switch between the computer and HDMI input modes. When the
HDMI input source is displayed you can use any HDMI device plugged in to the computer’s HDMI-In port. A
quick press of the button will toggle the display on/off.
When the HDMI cable is plugged-in, and the computer is powered off, the battery/HDMI icon will
be green when you press and hold the mode toggle button . When the HDMI device is playing the icon will
then return to indicate the battery charge status. See Table 1 - 3, on page 1 - 14 for details.
