5-2 Adding Expansion Devices
This chapter provides information for adding a variety of industry-standard expansion
devices to your NEC Versa notebook. Included in this chapter are procedures for
adding:
USB devices (diskette drive, CD-ROM drive, CD-R/RW drive)
a memory module
PC Cards
CF Cards
a secondary battery
a monitor
IEEE 1394 devices
audio options (microphone, headphones, stereo speakers).
USB Devices
The NEC Versa notebook comes with three USB ports which increase your
connectivity choices. Each USB port allows you to connect up to 127 USB equipped
peripheral devices to your notebook. These peripherals can include a diskette drive,
CD-ROM drive, CD-R/RW drive, digital camera, scanner, printer, modem, mouse,
keyboard, telephone, or game device.
You can add multiple USB devices to the notebook in several ways:
add three devices, one to each USB port
add multiple devices to each USB port by daisy-chaining each device to the next
device (each device must have a USB port)
add multiple devices to each port through an optional multiple USB port hub.
To connect an external USB device to your notebook, plug the USB device into one of
the USB ports. See Chapter 1 to locate USB ports on your system.
Some USB devices might require power connections and/or driver installation. If you
have an NEC USB diskette drive, CD-ROM drive, or CD-R/RW drive, see the
following sections in this chapter for installation information. For other USB devices,
see the documentation that comes with the device.
Note
You can continue to use the system keyboard and VersaGlide touchpad while
an external USB keyboard or USB mouse is connected.
You can disable the VersaGlide while an external mouse is connected (see “Advanced
Menu” in Chapter 3.) The Internal Mouse parameter in the Advanced BIOS Setup menu
lets you enable or disable the VersaGlide touchpad.
