Targus Universal Notebook Docking Station with Video

Troubleshooting

Device Not Working

• Make sure that the device is fully inserted into the

correct port on the docking station.

• Plug the device into a different port on the docking

station. If it still doesn’t work, test the device by
connecting it directly to your computer.

• Verify that you ran the Setup or Install program for the

device.

• Make sure that the device appears in Device Manager.

For more information refer to “Verifying Devices are
Installed” on page 16.

• Disconnect all devices from the docking station and

reconnect them, one at a time. Check that each device
works before plugging in the next one.

• Each USB port is equipped with over-current

protection. Should a USB device draw more current
than the USB port can supply, the port will shut down.
To re-enable the port, unplug the device and go to

Device Manager

 or to the message in the system tray

and choose the 

Reset

 option. You can then plug the

device back into the USB port. If a shut down reoccurs,
check the power requirements of the device.

Verifying Devices are Installed

You can view the devices installed on the docking station
from the Device Manager window in System Properties.
