Installation Recommendations

Conduct a "Bench Test" Gamber-Johnson strongly advises a "bench test" be conducted to verify that all electronic

and software issues are resolved prior to installation:

1. Make sure computer is operational by itself.

2. Insert computer into docking station and verify that the display is operating in the dock.

3. Interconnect entire assembly and verify start-up of all components, including other equipment (printers, modems, scanners, etc.).

Attaching Strain Relief Bracket

A cable Strain Relief Bracket is provided in the hardware bag. This bracket will provide a mounting platform to secure all interface cables. It is recomended that all cables are secured to the Strain Relief Bracket.

1. Lay docking station on its front face to expose rear mounting surface

2. Align the Strain Relief Bracket mounting holes with the two holes in the metal housing on the bottom of the docking station (FIG C).
