Display Devices
Besides the built-in LCD, you can also use an external monitor
(CRT) connected to the External Monitor (CRT) port as your display
device.
Attaching a Monitor (CRT)
If you prefer to use a monitor (CRT), connect it to the External Mon-
itor (CRT) port on the rear panel (See Chapter 1:“Rear View” on
page 1 - 16).

Vertical Refresh Rate
The vertical refresh rate
of your CRT is impor-
tant. If it is too low and/
or you’re using fluores-
cent lighting, the screen
will appear to flicker. To
reduce flickering on a
CRT, use faster refresh
rates (we recommend a
refresh rate of 72Hz or
more). But first check
your monitor’s docu-
mentation to make sure
it can support the rates
listed by the video driv-
er. The default refresh
rate for VGA monitors
(without drivers) is
60Hz.
