Using the docking station

Turning the computer on and off

When you connect a computer to the docking station, you can turn the computer on and off using either
the computer power button or the docking station power button.

When you turn on the computer using either button, the computer power light on the docking station is
turned on.

Connecting an optional security cable

NOTE:

The security cable is designed to act as a deterrent, but it may not prevent the computer from

being mishandled or stolen.

The docking station has two security cable slots. One slot is used for a cable that can secure either the
docking station alone or the docking station and a docked computer. The other slot is used for a cable
that only secures the docking station.

To connect an optional security cable to secure only the docking station or the docking station and a
docked computer:

1.

Loop the security cable around a secured object.

2.

Insert the security cable connector (1) into the security cable port at the back of the docking station.

3.

Insert the key into the lock slot on the right side of the docking station (2).
