Connecting a laptop to the TV
Decide whether you want to use HDMI or VGA to connect. Not sure? See the bottom of this page.Â
Plug the TV cart power into the wall.
Locate the provided HDMI cable. It is hanging either on the back of the cart or underneath the equipment tray.
Make sure your device is on and sending video.
Locate the TV remote and turn it on.
On the TV remote, press the SOURCE button and select "HDMI 3".
