The IBM ThinkPad SelectaDock II docking station works with the IBM
ThinkPad SelectaDock Base Model I to provide a complete docking
system for IBM ThinkPad 760E series computers.
Important
1. The SelectaDock II docking station supports only PCI bus
computers. It does not support ISA bus computers, even
though the SelectaDock Base Model I supports both PCI and
ISA bus computers. If you try to dock an unsupported
computer to the SelectaDock system, you will be alerted by the
Attention indicator and a series of beeps. If you try to hot- or
warm-dock an unsupported computer to the SelectaDock
system, the system will shut down automatically.
2. Make sure that you are using the latest system ROM version
in the ThinkPad system. See “Setting Up Your ThinkPad
System” on page 14.

computer
docking station
The
SelectaDock system
4 represents a single stationary unit to
which your computer is attached. In this guide, attaching or detaching
your computer to or from the SelectaDock system is called
undocking
. You dock or undock your computer to the SelectaDock
docking
system.
By installing the SelectaDock system, you greatly increase the
expandability of your computer.
The SelectaDock system's easy-to-use design also enables you to
dock or undock while the computer is powered on (hot docking and
undocking) with operating system support.

or
Another highlight of the SelectaDock system is its strong security
features that protect every removable device in the system, including
the SelectaDock system itself, from theft. You can also use a hard
disk password on the drive installed in the docking station.
The docking station is also equipped with the UltraBay. You can
easily install an UltraBay-compatible CD-ROM drive, a diskette drive,
or up to two hard disk drives into the UltraBay.

Setting Up Your ThinkPad System
Setting Up ROM
When you use your SelectaDock system with your ThinkPad system,
you should make sure you are using the latest system ROM version in
the ThinkPad system. Do the following:
1. Make sure of the following:
Your computer is turned off.
Your computer is undocked.
The battery in your computer is fully charged.
Your computer is connected to ac power through the AC

2. Insert the System Program Service Diskette into the diskette drive
of your computer.
3. Turn on the power.
4. Select “Update System Program.” Information is displayed that
indicates whether your system ROM version is the latest.
If your system ROM version is the latest, you do not need to update
the ROM in your computer. In this case, quit the program.
If your system ROM version is not the latest, follow the instructions on
the screen to update your computer's system ROM.
Notes:
1. If you update the system ROM, make sure not to turn off the
