Connecting and Using External Devices  
Connect external devices to the docking station connectors. Do  
not attach devices to the connectors on the tablet PC. Failure  
to use the docking station connectors may result in degraded  
performance. Be sure all device connections are secure and that  
the device is receiving electrical power.  
Connecting Standard External Devices  
The tablet PC and docking station jacks and connectors support  
standard external devices.  
For information about which jack or connector to use, refer to  
the documentation included with the device.  
For information about installing or loading any software  
required by the device, refer to the device documentation, the  
operating system Help files, or the device manufacturer’s  
Web site.  
To connect a standard external device to the docking station:  
1. Turn off the system (tablet PC docked in the docking station).  
2. If you are connecting a powered device, turn off the device.  
CAUTION: Do not use the ports or jacks on the tablet PC while it is  
docked in the docking station. Use the ports and jacks located on  
the docking station. Failure to use the docking station connectors  
may result in degraded performance. You can use the modem jack

Connecting Monitors  
To connect an external monitor to the system, insert the monitor  
cable into the external monitor connector on the back of the  
docking station.  
Connecting the monitor cable to the tablet PC connector while  
docked to the docking station may cause degraded service.  
VGA devices, such as monitors and projectors, cannot be  
connected to the tablet PC and the docking station at the same  
time. For example, if you have a monitor connected to the  
docking station you cannot connect a projector to the tablet PC  
external monitor connector. You must either undock the tablet PC  
or unplug the monitor from the docking station and connect the  
projector to the docking station.  
If a display device does not display an image while the tablet PC  
is docked, refer on the Documentation Library CD to the  
Software Guide, “Q Menu and Desktop Profile Manager Utility”  
chapter, “Desktop Profile Manager Utility” section.  
Connecting USB Devices  
Universal serial bus (USB) is a hardware interface that can be  
used to connect external devices, such as a USB keyboard,  
mouse, drive, printer, scanner, or hub, to the docking station.  
For the locations of the USB connectors on the docking station,  
refer in this document to the “Getting Started” chapter.

Using the Tablet PC Docking Station and Screen Protector  
A USB device functions in the system in the same way as a  
comparable non-USB device. The USB connectors support  
USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices.  
A USB hub is a connecting device that can be powered or  
unpowered. Powered hubs must be connected to external power.  
Unpowered hubs must be connected either to a USB connector  
on the docking station or to a powered hub. USB hubs can be  
connected to a USB connector on the docking station or to other  
USB devices. Hubs support varying numbers of USB devices and  
are used to increase the number of USB devices in the system.  
Some USB devices may require additional support software,  
which is usually included with the device. For software  
information about a specific device, refer to the documentation  
included with the device.  
Using Communications Devices  
To connect the system to a network, insert the network cable into  
the RJ-45 network jack on the back of the docking station.  
CAUTION: Simultaneous connection of network cables into jacks  
on the tablet PC and docking station will cause degraded network  
access or may cause network access failure.  
Ä
Wired network connectivity and activity are indicated by the  
Local Area Network (LAN) connection lights on the top of the  
tablet PC, even if the network cable is plugged into the docking  
station RJ-45 network jack. Wireless network connectivity and  
activity are indicated by the wireless LAN activity light on the  
front of the tablet PC. Refer on the Documentation Library CD,  
to the Hardware Guide, “External Components” chapter,  
“Top: Pen Holder and LAN Connection Lights” section  
and “Front: Lights” section, for more information.  
To use the tablet PC internal modem while docked, use the
