Havis ® DS-PAN-100 Series Docking Station Installation Computer Set-Up Guide
After installing your DS-PAN-100 Series Dock, it is strongly suggested that you make the following computer system operating parameter
changes on your computer to ensure the highest performance from your mobile computing system. These changes will ensure trouble-free
recognition of the USB hub during session start-up, and prevent loss of connection between computer and USB powered devices.
(Procedure 1.1/1.2) Updating the BIOS setting:
During "Power-Up" or "Re-Boot" with a CF30 Toughbook docked in a DS-PAN-100 Series Dock, it is possible that intermittently the Ethernet
device will not load up in the Device Manager. To prevent the user from experiencing this, it is necessary to disable legacy USB support.
This is a feature for a USB powered Keyboard or Mouse in the event of an operating system loss. The Panasonic CF30 Laptop provides an
integrated keyboard and mouse touch-pad, so this feature is not necessary in most mobile
computing solutions.
