Docking Ethernet

Docking Ethernet enables or disables the internal ethernet controller in the a Dell Latitude C/Port Family
Advanced Port Replicator (C/Port APR) or C/Dock Family Expansion Station. A change to this option takes
effect when you reboot.

Docking IRQ

Docking IRQ tells the computer which IRQ to assign to the docking station or replicator during the boot
sequence. If this option is set to Optimized, the docking station or replicator is assigned a dedicated IRQ
during the boot sequence. Select IRQ 11 if a peripheral device requires the use of the dedicated IRQ.

Docking Status

Docking Status shows whether the computer is attached to a Dell Latitude C/Port Family APR or C/Dock
Family Expansion Station. No user-selectable settings are available for this option.

External Hot Key

External Hot Key lets you use the key on the external keyboard the same way you use the
key on the computer's built-in keyboard. Set this option to Scroll Lock (the default) if you are using an
external keyboard. Set this option to Not Installed to disable this function on the external keyboard.
