Connecting to the port replicator
Important The notebook may detect additional devices and add
drivers after being attached to the port replicator. This
process must be completed for components to work
correctly. Follow any on-screen instructions, if necessary.
Important The port replicator’s power button controls both the
notebook and the port replicator only after the port
replicator is connected to AC power.
Important The notebook’s monitor port is disabled when the port
replicator is connected to the notebook. If you want to use
an external monitor, plug it into the monitor port on the port
replicator.
Important The notebook’s Ethernet jack is disabled when the port
replicator is connected to the notebook. If you want to
connect to a cable or DSL modem or to an Ethernet
network, plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet jack on
the port replicator.
Important If you are using a USB or parallel port printer connected
to the port replicator, you must select Virtual printer port
for USB during the Windows printer installation. Windows
will not be able to detect your printer if you make a different
selection.
Important This port replicator does not support Fast IR.
