ThinkPad 365 Port Replicator
Installing the Port Replicator (Option B)
The Port Replicator's Desktop Base adds an extra level of ease and
comfort to your computing. It provides a firm platform on which to
work, a palmrest for easier typing, and a cable cover to keep all of
your peripheral cables neat and free from dust.
To install the ThinkPad onto the Port Replicator or Desktop Base,
follow these steps:
1
Slide the palmrest out (away from the Port Replicator), as
shown on the next page (

).
2
Press the Port Replicator down onto the Desktop Base, making
sure that the tabs on the Base line up correctly with the slots in
the bottom of the Replicator (

).
3
Place the ThinkPad on the Desktop Base, making sure the
guide pins on the Port Replicator line up with the
corresponding holes in the ThinkPad (

).
Locate the two notches on either side of the Desktop Base,
just in front of the palmrest, and grip the base by these
notches as you press the ThinkPad into place with your
thumbs.
4
Finally, push the palmrest back into place (
