Using the Port Replicator
Understanding the Basics
Understanding the Basics
Docking the OmniBook to the port replicator is just like simultaneously adding
several devices to the OmniBook. Docking does not cause Windows 95 to create a
new hardware profile. Similarly, undocking does not create an undocked profile.
This section shows you how to get your port replicator and OmniBook up and
running quickly, including how to
♦ Dock the OmniBook.
♦ Undock the OmniBook.
♦ Reset the OmniBook while docked.
♦ Attach a security cable.

Using the Port Replicator
CAUTION
Use only an HP F1377A ac adapter (the type shipped with the OmniBook)
do
not use an ac adapter from another product. Using an improper adapter could
damage the OmniBook and will make your warranty invalid.
Understanding the Basics
To dock the OmniBook
1. Plug the power cord into the ac adapter, then into an ac outlet. Plug the ac
adapter into the port replicator.
—
2. Slide the OmniBook's rear port door to the left.
