Connecting an External Keyboard or Mouse

You can use your GoBook II computer with an optional external keyboard, numeric keypad, or IBM

PS/2 compatible mouse. These devices are "hot swap" capable, which means you do not have to power

down the GoBook II to connect them to the PS/2 connection located on the back of the unit.

Display Basics

XGA vs. SVGA Display

Your GoBook II computer has either an XGA (standard) or SVGA (optional) display.

XGA Display: The XGA display is a transmissive color display designed to minimize glare and

maximize transmitted light from the backlight so it has excellent readability in indirect light. The XGA

display is the most popular display because it is easy to read indoors and in vehicles.

SVGA Display: The optional SVGA display is a transflective color display designed for frequent

outdoor use with superior readability in direct sunlight. It also includes a backlight to improve visibility

in low light conditions such as shade, in a vehicle or indoors.

Connecting to an External Monitor

The GoBook II has a 15-Pin VGA monitor port to connect your computer to an external monitor.

Using the VGA monitor port for dual display

You may use an external monitor simultaneously with your GoBook II’s LCD. You may also disable

the GoBook II's LCD and use the external monitor exclusively.

1. Locate the 15-pin VGA monitor port on the back of the unit behind the IO door. Then connect the

video signal cable from the external monitor to the monitor port.

2. Connect the monito

’s

ower cable to a

ower outlet and turn on the monitor.
