It has a VGA component plug. Similar to what is on the monitor.
I want to use it to watch tv.
My pc monitor is small of course.
For now my wife and I are temporarily sleeping downstairs until she gets well.
Our big tv is upstairs in the bedroom.
We have no tv downstairs.

What's an "Olivia 31" if atv you should be able to use as a tv. If it's a monitor you will need a tuner to get ant stations. More info if you want help

If you go thru the input menus on the tv you will see the input ports that are available. If one says vga or pc, it will should work. Just select that input and hook it all up.

Try it. The TV will either sync to your PC’s video output, or it won’t - no harm done if it doesn’t.
