Never apply cleaning agents directly to the computer. Use only a soft, lint-free cloth. Never use volatile (petroleum distillates) or scouring cleaning agents.

Wireless LAN

(wireless network - abbreviation = WLAN)

Your notebook may contain a Wireless LAN module (optional). This module allows you to set up a wireless-based network, and to connect with an existing wireless network. It works according to the IEEE802.11a+b+g standard.

WLAN technology allows users to set up wireless connections inside a local area (e.g. in a company or campus building, or in a public building such as an airport). WLANs can be used in temporary offices, in locations where it is not possible to set up extensive cable installations, or to extend an existing LAN so that users in different parts of a building can work at different times.

There are two different ways to operate a WLAN.

In fixed WLANs, wireless stations (devices with radio network cards or external modems) set up connections with wireless access points, which act as bridges between the stations and the existing network backbone. In Peer-to-Peer (ad hoc) WLANs several users can set up a temporary network within a limited area such as a conference room, without using access points, and providing there is no need to use network resources.

In 1997 the IEEE confirmed the standard 802.11 for WLANs; this set a data transfer rate of 1 to 2 Mbit/s (Megabits per second). Under 802.11a+b+g, the new governing standard, the maximum data transfer rate is 54 Mbit/s over a frequency band of 2.4 or 5 GHz (Gigahertz).

Additional safety notes for units with wireless LAN

A wireless LAN component is integrated into your Notebook. For this reason you must make sure that you comply with the following notes on safety:

• Switch off the Notebook when you are in an aircraft or while driving a car.
• If you are in a hospital, an operating room or close to an electronic medical system, switch off the wireless components in the Notebook! The radio waves which are transmitted could disrupt the working of the medical equipment.
• Keep the Notebook at least 20cm away from a heart pacemaker, otherwise there is a risk that the radio waves could disrupt the normal working of the pacemaker.
• The radio waves which are transmitted could give rise to interference noise in hearing aids.
• When its radio components are switched on, do not place the Notebook close to inflammable gases or in an environment which could be at risk of explosion (e.g. paint shop), since the radio waves which are transmitted could set of a fire or an explosion.
• The range of the wireless connection depends on the environmental and other ambient conditions.
• When transferring data over a wireless connection, unauthorized Third Parties can also receive the data.

MAXDATA Computer GmbH is not responsible for disruptions to radio or television reception which are caused by unauthorized alterations to this unit. MAXDATA also accepts no responsibility for the replacement or the exchange of connecting cables and units which were not specified by MAXDATA Computer GmbH.

Installation Procedure

Follow the steps below to connect the Port Replicator to your notebook computer:

1. Align the Port Replicator connector with the matching port on the left side of the computer.
2. Gently push the connector into the port until it is fully seated in place.

Device Ports

The Port Replicator connections are described in this section. They allow you to connect to a wide variety external devices including but not limited to: floppy disk drives, hard disk drives, optical media disk drives, keyboards, USB devices, printers, etc.

IEEE 1394 Port

The IEEE 1394 port allows you to connect an external digital multimedia device such as camcorders, digital cameras, and so on.

To connect an IEEE 1394 interface device:

1. Align the connector with the port opening.
2. Push the connector into the port until it is seated firmly in place.

Your computer will automatically recognize the device as soon as it is attached and install the appropriate drivers for you, if necessary.

External Monitor Port

The external monitor port allows you to connect an external monitor.

To connect an external monitor:

1. Align the connector with the port opening.
2. Push the connector into the port until it is seated firmly in place.
3. Tighten the two connector screws.

Pressing the [FN] + [F3] keys allows you to change how the video is displayed between the notebook and the external monitor. Each time you press the keys, the display focus shifts, starting with the built-in display panel only moving to the external monitor only finally moving to both the built-in display panel and the external monitor.

Parallel Port

The parallel port, or LPT port, allows you to connect parallel devices such as a printer, to your notebook.

To connect a parallel device:

1. Align the connector with the port opening.
2. Push the connector into the port until it is seated firmly in place.
3. Tighten the two connector screws.

Your computer will automatically recognize the device as soon as it is attached and install the appropriate drivers for you, if necessary.

Universal Serial Bus Ports

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports allow you to connect USB devices like external game pads, pointing devices, keyboards and/or speakers.

To connect a USB device:

1. Align the connector with the port opening.
2. Push the connector into the port until it is seated firmly in place.

Due to ongoing changes in USB technology and standards, not all USB devices and/or drivers are guaranteed to work. If you encounter connection problems, check with the device manufacturer for compatibility information.

Internal LAN (RJ-45) Port

The RJ-45 port is used to connect the internal Fast Ethernet (10/100/1000 Base-T/Tx) to a Local Area Network (LAN) in your office or home, or broadband devices such as a cable modem, DSL, or satellite internet. If your notebook has internal LAN capability you will probably need to configure your notebook to work with your particular network. (To properly set up your LAN environment, consult with a networking professional. Please refer to your network administrator for information on your network configuration.)

To connect a LAN cable:

1. Align the connector with the port opening.
2. Push the connector into the port until it is seated firmly in place.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into a LAN outlet.

Headphones socket

You can connect headphones or portable computer loudspeakers to your notebook via the headphones socket. Your audio device must be equipped with a 1/8" (3.5 mm) stereo miniplug for it to work with the Port Replicator.

To connect an external audio source:

1. Align the connector with the port opening.
2. Push the connector into the port until it is seated firmly in place.

Power adapter socket

You can connect the notebook's power adapter here. Power is then supplied to the notebook via the port replicator.

On/off button

When the notebook and port replicator are connected, the on/off button on the port replicator has the same function as the on/off button on the notebook.
