This flowchart shows how output devices receive data from the computer, decide if it is visual or audio, and then send it to the correct device: monitor for visual data, speaker for audio data, or show an error if unknown.
Step-by-Step Trace - 6 Steps
Step 1: Start and receive data from the computer
Step 2: Check if data is visual or audio
Step 3: Check if data is visual
Step 4: Send data to monitor
