Adding an external monitor to Chromebook - Spin 13

Ferry67

For work at home I use an Acer Chromebook Spin 13.

Fulltime, and it's a nightmare with such a small screen.

Can I add an external monitor to a Chromebook Spin 13?

I have an old iMac 21,5" late 2009 model. Maybe use that as a monitor?

Is that possible? If so, which connections do I need?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Ferry67,

Connect your Chromebook to a monitor

1. At the bottom right, select the time.
2. Select Settings .
3. In the "Device" section, select Displays.
4. Select Mirror Built-in Display. This option will appear when your monitor is connected.

Which Spin 13 model do you have? It should be something like CP713-xxx-xxxx. Different models have different features but I believe all of them have either a HDMI port or a USB-C port with DP alt mode supported.
