Following are common questions and answers
related to your use of DockMate IV.
Question
Answer
How do I know
the computer
is successfully
docked into
DockMate IV?
There are two areas you can check:
•
Physical Lock. The dock LED, found on the
top of DockMate IV, should be lit, and the
dock lock pops out.
•
Logical Lock. The peripherals connected to
DockMate IV should function normally with
the computer. Press Fn-F2 to enter Setup
and look at the settings in About My
Computer — the peripherals connected to
DockMate IV should register.
If a peripheral is not functioning normally, enter
suspend-to-memory (Fn-Esc), then exit to re-
configure the system.
Does my
docked
computer
support Plug
and Play?
Yes. After connecting the computer to DockMate
IV, the system will detect the add-on hardware
and load the driver automatically under
Windows 95.
After
undocking, my
infrared port
does not
function.
What’s wrong?
When docked, the computer’s infrared port is
automatically disabled to free up resources for
use by other devices.
After undocking, you can re-enable the infrared
port using the BIOS Utility:
1.
Press
Fn-F2
to enter the BIOS Utility.
2.
Press
F8
; then select System Configuration
and press
Enter
.
3.
Press
PgDn
twice to go to page 3.
4.
Set the IrDA (FIR) parameter to
Enabled
and
exit the BIOS Utility.
