3–12 Tablet PC TC1000 Docking Station Reference Guide
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.
Ä
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.
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
tablet PC RJ-11 telephone jack located on the lower side of
the tablet PC.
