Configuring the Computer for Docking and Undocking
To use the computer with the SelectaDock system, you need to
specially configure the computer and the docking station:
When you first set up the computer and the docking station, dock
the computer in cold mode.
Assigning the computer resources to the devices attached to the
SelectaDock system by using the ThinkPad Features Program
installed in the computer. You must do this procedure whenever
the computer is docked to the SelectaDock system to avoid
resource conflict problem.
Installing necessary device drivers for devices attached to the
SelectaDock system into the operating system you are using.
The assignment of resources and the installation of device
drivers are always required when you add new hardware or you
specify a new software setting in the SelectaDock system.
If you are using IBM DOS or Microsoft Windows 3.1, and if you
want to make hot and warm docking possible, the following setup
is needed.
Activating the Docking Control program on the computer for
enabling hot or warm docking and undocking.
Detailed instructions on these setups are described in “Hot or Warm
Docking and Undocking” on page 28.
