How To Install An FM Transmitter

If you have a digital music library, you likely also own a bevy of portable electronics, such as a digital media player, mobile phone, or GPS device, that can play the music stored on your PC. And although your music player’s headphones are great for listening to music while walking or running, wearing headphones won’t do (and in some states, is illegal) while you’re driving.

Alternatively, burning music to a CD can be substantially time-consuming, and portable or built-in speakers are a poor substitute for the speakers in your car. An FM transmitter gives you an easy way to play music from your digital audio player over your car’s speakers.

Whether you want to listen to music, podcasts, audio books, or the sound from a movie playing on your media player, FM transmitters allow the entire car to enjoy the audio. Additionally, FM transmitters are portable and easy to install, so you can even take it on a road trip in a friend’s vehicle. In this article, we’ll examine what you should look for when purchasing an FM transmitter and walk you through the setup of an FM transmitter in your car.

What Is An FM Transmitter?

Typically, an FM transmitter plugs into the headphone jack of your media player (some models use a proprietary connector and are exclusive to certain player brands or models), and it converts the audio output to an FM radio signal that your car’s radio can pick up. The FM signal is a low power output that has a range of 10 feet, under ideal conditions. Because radio stations in any given area may already be using many FM frequencies, FM transmitters let you select, either by choosing a specific frequency or switching among a preset list, an FM channel that’s free of interference.


Depending on the prevalence of FM signals in your area, strong FM signals may overpower your FM transmitter, so you’ll hear static or other radio stations bleeding over the audio from your media player. If you live in a heavily populated area, the FM transmitter may produce static on nearly every frequency you select. There’s a limited signal range because, by U.S. federal law, the FM transmitters can only transmit at full strength up to 10 feet, and after that, the FM signal must begin to die out. For best results, try the 87.7 to 91.9MHz frequencies.

They are generally free of radio traffic, because they are reserved for nonprofit radio stations. Check out our “Other Options” sidebar to find out another way to hear audio from your digital media player on your car’s speakers.

USB Wireless FM Transmitter (for apple cellphone user)

For proper operation of the USB transmitter you must keep the following in mind. Make sure connect the audio plug to the speaker/earphone output jack on your computer and select the right transmission frequency. Make sure the computer system volume (from CONTROL PANEL) is NOT set too low. It should be set to Med/High level. Make sure you increase the volume level of the media software you are using (e.g. Windows Media Player, iTunes, WinAmp, etc.). Start at MED/HIGH level, volume set too high will cause distortion, but volume set too low will decrease the transmitter's power output. Remember, the transmitter works similar to a pair of speakers so you need to increase the volume level to increase the power output.

Apple Mac OS X users only:
Attention Apple MAC OS X USERS: If NO sound is being transmitted, then follow these instructions below:
Go to >>The Apple Menu
Go to >>System Preferences
Go to >>Hardware >>>>>Sound
Go to >>Output TAB
The audio device should appear in a list as The "USB Audio DAC"
Select >>"USB Audio DAC" from the list
Once selected you should hear an audible system beep from an FM radio set to receive the radio signal from the USB device.
You should now be able to transmit to your FM radio. As with both systems (PC/MAC) the sound will no longer be output to your computer speakers but rather to the FM radio set to receive the transmission. Once you unplug the transmitter from your USB Port, sound will once again be output to your default computer speakers as usual. DO NOT UNPLUG THE FM TRANSMITTER FROM YOUR USB PORT WHILE THE TRANSMITTER IS WORKING. STOP AUDIO APPLICATION FIRST, THEN UNPLUG THE FM TRANSMITTER FROM YOUR USB PORT.

The definitive guide to the Compaq Armada 4100 Family Convenience Base Ethernet connection for Linux

Oke, that title may be a little over the top, but it is what it pretends to be. And rightfully so since I've wasted, err spend a lot of time figuring out how to get it up and running. But first how this came all about.

A little history
The company where I work occasionaly sells old office equipment to its employees for a small amount of money. Sometimes it's tables and chairs, sometimes old lab equipment. You know, tech freaks love that kind of stuff. At the top of the whishlist are old PC's and laptops, which can be put to good use on all kind of home projects. So, on one of these occasions I ended up with a Compaq Armada 4120, including a docking station.
It had Windows 95 installed on it and nothing else. But that was oke with me since I had other plans for it anyway; it was to become my Linux playground. It hardly cost me anything and was in no way needed for my daily computational needs, so I could wreck it without causing a problem. Together with a friend I started out to get things started. First we figured out how to repartition the harddisk, in order to save Win95, add a Linux partition and have some swapspace as well. Unfortunately this Armada came without the CD-ROM craddle, which would have made installing any Linux distribution a lot easier. Either a disk set had to be created or a network install attempted. Of course the latter was a bigger challange so we choose that. A spare PCMCIA Ethernet card was put in the slot, a PCMCIA setup disk created from the intended distribution (we used Redhat 6.1 Cartman at the time) and put in the disk drive. Then we fired her up. Well, as you've probably guessed we loaded Redhat, compiled a custom kernel tailored to the Armada and setup LILO to play around with various settings. Once that kernel was pretty much the way we wanted it, I started exploring the motherload of software and services that were available on the machine. Configuring all this stuff, especially the X server was very educational, so it served its purpose very well.

Of course the Internet proved a valuable source of information on this. These are the pages I used to get most of the stuff working.

It lead me to believe that there is a TI ThunderLAN chip in there. So I started with that driver. I first tried it with the 2.2 kernel I have been using until now, which is modular, so I could load the driver on runtime. 'insmod tlan duplex=2' would load the driver and get things going. Well it didn't. After trying several other drivers to no avail I focused my attention to the 2.4.2 kernel sources. Maybe it contained a better driver which may work on this setup after all. After building a few monolithic kernels I still didn't get the result I was hoping for.

Dell Inspiron E1501 LCD Screen(Resolution: 1280x800 pixels;Aspect ratio: WXGA, Wide screen )


Time to call in the experts. From the driver sources in the kernel I found a mailing list on sourceforge which is dedicated to the TLAN chipset support on Linux, moderated by the driver maintainer Sam Chessman. I had hoped that someone on the list had seen the problem before and could point me to a rapid solution, but no one did. Instead Sam provided very good step by step guidance through the process of determining the cause of the problem.
One thing that stood out was the fact that the Ethernet chip wasn't to be found on the PCI bus. So how was it hooked up to the system? What I had noted in the Win95 driver was that there is a parallel port setting in there. Curious. Then someone mentioned pocket adapters. They were popular for a few years after which PCMCIA and USB adapters took the market by storm. They were dongle style parallel port adapters which create a Ethernet port. D-link and Xircom were the prominent brands. Together with this conversation this lead me to believe that maybe there is no TLAN chip in there after all. After all, it was only an unconfirmed statement. Now with more questions than answers there remained only one thing to do. To open up the docking station...

How to Use a Digital Picture Frame As a PC Monitor

Digital picture frames were created primarily to display photo files. Improvements to the technology allows many digital picture frames to use a direct peripheral connection to perform as a color display monitor for your computer. These picture frames can be used without the need for a dedicated video-card connection and often without the need to download and install additional device drivers. Most digital frames already have the necessary software for secondary display function, giving it plug-and-play operability.

Connect the digital picture frame to a USB port on your PC with a USB cable. Power up the computer and turn the power on for the digital picture frame.

The large connector on one end of the frame's USB cable should go into the USB port of the PC with the mini-connector end connecting to the picture frame.

Allow the PC to detect the picture frame. The Windows XP operating system and above should go through an automatic detection process, applying the necessary drivers. If the drivers are not available in your operating system you will have to supply the drivers yourself, either by downloading them from the picture frame manufacturer's website or by loading the drivers from a CD included with your picture frame. Apply the necessary drivers by running them from the CD or from your hard drive.

Choose the desired settings for your digital picture frame through the display settings. To access the display settings for your new PC display, right-click with the mouse on you operating system desktop. Choose "Display Settings", then click on the listed digital picture frame among the monitor choices.

Choose your preferred display type, either "Mirror" which displays an exact duplicate of your primary display, or "Extended Desktop" which expands your desktop to the new display. Choose the resolution and color depth for the picture frame, and then press "OK" to save the new settings. The display should change to your chosen settings and begin to perform as a secondary PC monitor.

How to Connect a Touchscreen Monitor

Touchscreen monitors have been a staple of science-fiction movies for decades. Now they are a reality for the average home computer user. The very idea that it is possible to simply touch, tap and slide your finger over the computer screen has made even the most stoic technophobe sit up and pay attention. The average non-geek computer user has to wonder how to install such a monitor and if they could do it without a visit from a computer pro. The answer is that almost anyone can install these monitors in a few minutes.

Make sure you have all the necessary parts. When you unpack your new monitor, make certain that all of the necessary cables were included. If not, be certain to get the cables recommended by the manufacturer of your monitor.

Connect the monitor to the computer. Turn the computer off. There are two scenarios that will be possible when you begin to connect the cables. In the first, they will be connected permanently to the monitor and you will need to plug them into the appropriate port on the computer.

The second is that they are all detached and need to be attached to both the monitor and computer. They will not only be color coded but they will also only fit in their appropriate slots. After all of the cables are attached, plug in the power supply to both the monitor and the electrical source.

Turn on the monitor and computer. After boot up, the monitor may work immediately. Install the included software anyway. It will make the screen work as it was intended. Follow the instructions and any onscreen prompts until installation is complete.

How to Fix a Broken DELL Inspiron Mini 10 Laptop LCD Screen

While it may seem like fixing and replacing a screen is a job left only to professionals, everyday computer users with a couple of tools and some careful measures can purchase a new DELL Inspiron Mini 10 LCD screen, remove the old, and install the new in a relatively short amount of time.

Purchase your new LCD screen. Check with your individual manufacturer for more information and for other considerations such as matte screen versus a glossy option, for example (see Resources below).Examine the perimeter (bezel) of your laptop screen. The majority of DELL Inspiron Mini 10 laptop screens will have screw covers visible here. Take your small knife and carefully pop these screw covers off.

Use your small Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws around the bevels of your LCD screen. The screws will now be visible thanks to the screw covers you removed with your knife. Store these screws in a safe temporary place, as you will need them again. Consider a small plastic bag for storage.Remove the bezel of your screen. With the covers off and the screws removed, the bezel will easily pop off. Put it carefully aside.Lean the LCD screen forward slightly so as to separate it from the back bezel of the computer.

Examine the exposed LCD screen. There will be screws (usually two) on the metal brackets on each side of the DELL Inspiron Mini 10 LCD screen of your computer. Again, use the small Philips screwdriver and remove these screws. Place them in your plastic bag or other safe place for later. Unscrew the bottom screw on each bracket side first, followed by the upper screw.Remove the LCD screen from the back bezel entirely and lay it in a safe place, such as on a soft cloth or a similar material that will not scratch your screen.

Remove the tape holding the video cable to the DELL Inspiron Mini 10 LCD screen. It is usually fastened to the back of the LCD screen via this tape, although some computer models will have clip fasteners on each side of the video cable that must be unclipped.Remove the inverter plug from the inverter, if you must replace the inverter as well as the screen. The inverter is located at the bottom center of the LCD screen once the bezel is removed, and the cable plugs into the side of the inverter.

Take your new DELL Inspiron Mini 10 LCD screen and attach the video cable to it via the tape, as before. Additionally, if a new inverter was required, remove the old inverter, slide the new into its place, and take the unplugged inverter cable and plug it into the side of the new inverter.Take the two sets of screws and reinstall them into the side of the metal brackets of the LCD screen.These screens can also be easily purchased from a number of online vendors, including papatek.com, sunvalleyus.com.

Push the bezel back into place over the top of the new DELL Inspiron Mini 10 LCD screen. Take the final screws that you initially removed from the bezel and screw them back in with your screwdriver.

How to Set Up Eight Monitors on One PC

Whether you are setting up a computer display for a trade show or equipping a training lab, you'll need a KVM Switch if you want to send video signal from

one computer to multiple monitors. The possibilities for controlling other computers (including keyboard, video, and mouse functions or "KVM") from one

central computer are almost endless. KVM switches come in many design configurations and price levels and are available for purchase online.

Determine what functions the KVM switch must perform; different types of KVM switches can accomplish different tasks. If you want to simply send a video

signal from one "control" computer tower to eight stand-alone monitors, for example, an "8-output video" KVM switch will work. The KVM switch will feature

one set of "master inputs" for the control computer, and eight video outputs. These video outputs will accept DB9 type ports. DB9 ports are blue and shaped

like a parallelogram. Purchase the KVM switch that meets your needs and your budget.

Turn off the control computer. Place the KVM switch box near the control computer.Plug the hardwired DB9 video plug coming out of the KVM switch into the

corresponding DB9 video plug on your computer tower. Plug your control computer monitor into the KVM "output" switch set aside for the control monitor.

Connect the video monitors to the DB9 output ports on the KVM switch. If the video monitors are located very far away from the control computer and the KVM

switch, you may need to purchase extension cables to span this distance. These extension cables are available at local computer parts shops and online. They

will have one male DB9 end and one female DB9 end. Plug the extension cable into the satellite monitor cable and then connect the other end of the extension

into the KVM switch. If any of the monitors are of the DVI type, purchase an adapter to convert the DVI monitor to DB9.

Boot the control computer and switch on the control computer monitor screen. You will see the desktop boot to the control computer video screen. The signal

to your monitor is coming out of the KVM switch.Turn on the satellite video monitors at their power switches.On the KVM switch box, select any of the

satellite monitors that you want to receive video signal. You can turn off a video feed to any of the satellite monitors by turning off that monitor's

assigned feed button on the KVM box. The image coming from the control computer tower, and seen on the control computer monitor, will display across all

satellite monitors when they are selected "on."

Adjust your video card adapter settings if you would like to attempt to "stretch" the image coming out of the control panel across all satellite monitors in "jumbotron" fashion. Not all video card adapters are capable of this trick, however. Go to Start/ControlPanel/Display/Settings/Monitors to see if your video card allows for "stretching" across more than one desktop field. Creating one large "jumbotron" image using clustered monitor screens often requires use of a special type of video card or KVM switch made for this purpose. These "jumbotron" cards and switches are available online.

How to Adjust a Sony VGN AW180FU Series Computer Monitor Screen

Although most individuals are currently utilizing flat panel displays for their computing needs, CRT monitors like the Sony Trinitron offer some advantages, mostly in response time (how quickly an image displays after being processed by the video card) and in refresh rate (how many times per second the image redraws itself). Unlike flat panel displays, CRTs require a bit of adjustment for optimal image display. This process is fairly simple, but it can be time consuming.These LCD Screens can also be easily purchased from a number of online vendors, including papatek.com, sunvalleyus.com.

Utilize the menu button on the front of the Trinitron Sony Vaio VGN AW180FU Series monitor to adjust the standard monitor screen options, including brightness, contrast, RGB color spectrum, and the geometry of the image (e.g. horizontal and vertical picture size). Scroll through the menus utilizing the EZ-navigator picture toggle to move left and right through the options, selecting the option you need by pressing the EZ-navigator control inward toward the Sony Vaio VGN AW180FU Series screen.

Utilize the picture mode button to cycle through a number of presets for image quality, including standard, professional, and dynamic modes. This will alter the hertz running through the machine to display a softer or
crisper image depending on your preference. Do not be thrown off by the labels -- simply cycle through the options and choose the setting you believe looks best for each use, whether you are watching a movie, browsing the net, or playing a game.

Push the input selector button if you have more than one input source hooked up to the Sony Vaio VGN AW180FU Series monitor (such as another computer or a video game console). This will allow you to cycle through the various inputs on the Sony Vaio VGN AW180FU Series monitor, enabling you to quickly flip between looking for something online and playing the latest console video games.

How to Switch From a Projector Screen to a Computer Screen

Many computer users want to do their computing from a variety of screens and monitors. In addition to using a computer to power home entertainment systems and for television viewing, many want the ability to switch to a projector screen. It is easy to connect multiple viewing sources to a single computer.

The Video Card
Connecting viewing sources to a computer is made possible with a monitor switch box or video card. Many high-performance computers are capable of hosting two viewing sources at the same time. To see if your video card is able to power two monitors, first check to see if there are two video outputs on the back of
your video card or read the video card instruction manual. If your video card is unable to support two monitors, consider either installing a second video card or replacing your existing video card with a model that will support dual monitors.

USB 2.0 to DVI Adapter (QWXGA)()


Replacing or installing a new video card is a fairly simple process. While you should always read the manufacturer's instructions, the basic procedure involves opening up your computer, unscrewing and disconnecting the existing video card, and putting the new video card in its place.

The Monitor Switch
If you are unable or not interested in installing a new video card into your machine, you can also support two video displays through the use of a monitor switch. A monitor switch is a set top box that will allow you to switch between monitors externally from you computer.

Making the Connections
Whether connecting to a dual monitor video card or monitor switch, hooking up your projector and computer screen is simple. Most modern projectors have a VGA or SVGA port. This is the standard connection used for PC monitors. If you are working in a Macintosh-based platform, you will need either a projector that supports DVI, which is rare, or a VGA to DVI adapter cable, which is much more common.

To connect your dual displays to a video card, connect the monitor cables directly into the card, using the appropriate adapters. To connect two displays through a monitor switch, connect the computer to the monitor switch using the supplied cable, then connect each screen to the ports in the back of the switch.

Configuring the Computer
Modern operating systems are fully capable of working with two screens. First you will need to browse to either your system preferences or computer properties. From there, you can usually choose to display in dual-screen mode, where each screen is different, or in mirror mode, where the two screens are the same.

Finally, you often will need to calibrate your screens to work with your computer. Fortunately, many operating systems come with presets that make this process very simple. For your computer screen and projector, select its resolution with the appropriate device on (if connected properly the computer should
be able to pick up if there is a monitor connected), and the computer usually can do the rest.

Now whenever you want to switch between displays, either turn the selected display on or flip the knob on your monitor switch.

How to Connect Two DVI LCD SCREENS/Monitors to One PC

Having two monitors connected to your computer gives you expanded options for more productive desktop computing. For example, a web developer can have programming code on one screen and an Internet browser in another to test that code.

This can create a smoother "work flow" that reduces the time it takes to complete tasks and reduce errors. There are several ways to connect multiple monitors to your PC. The items mentioned below address multiple connection solutions.

Check your connections. Ideally, your video card has two DVI ports. If it has only one port, you will not get two separate displays. You can install a "splitter" on the signal cable, but this will only show the same image on both monitors.

If you have one DVI port and one VGA port on the back of your computer, you can obtain a small adapter that will convert the VGA port to DVI. A monitor connected to the VGA port will not have a digital signal, but this should not have a substantial effect on image quality. If you only have a DVI cable and a VGA cable, you can buy an adapter that will convert a DVI port to a VGA port.

Verify that you have the proper cables. Make sure you are not using a DVI-A cable, which is an analog cable that may not be compatible with the DVI port on the back of your monitor. DVI-D and DVI-I are fine.

And lastly, if your monitor has a resolution larger than 1920 x 1200 pixels , that monitor will need a "dual-link" DVI cable, sometimes known as DVI-DL. The page linked below in the References section contains diagrams for identifying the different varieties of DVI cables. If you are connecting a laptop to an external monitor, it may have a "mini DVI" port that needs an adapter to connect to a DVI cable.

Connect your monitors. The best way to do this is to have one monitor already attached, rather than connecting them both at the same time. Otherwise, you may encounter display corruption that will make the problem difficult to troubleshoot.

Check the settings of your newly connected monitors. In Windows, right-click on the desktop, select "Personalize" from the pop-up menu, and click on

"Display Settings." Here you can adjust the settings of both monitors. You can select them from the drop-down menu in the middle of the window, or by clicking on their icons just above that menu.

In Mac OS X, click on the Apple icon in the upper-left corner of the screen,select "System Preferences," click on "Displays," and select the "Display" tab.

You may need to click the "Detect Displays" button to get both monitors to appear in this menu. You may need to disable Expose and Spaces before attaching the second monitor.

How to Hook Up Your PC to Your TV Using a VGA Cord

The line that exists to separate televisions and computer monitors has blurred more and more as technology advances. Many newer TVs can now serve as standard televisions as well as computer monitors. With this new merging of functionality, you can now watch movies that are on your computer's hard drive on your TV.

Step 1Locate the VGA Port on your TV. Most newer model televisions have one on the rear of the TV. It will be trapezoidal and blue with the exact same number of pin holes as there are pins on your VGA cable.

Step 2Plug in one end of the VGA cable into the VGA port on the back of your computer. Make sure that all of the pins are lined up correctly, and never force the connection.

Step 3Plug in the other end of the cable into the VGA port on the back of the TV. Again, never force a connection.

Step 4Power on the computer and the TV.
