High-Connectivity Cradle; Inserting The Pen Tablet - Fujitsu Point 1600 User Manual

High-Connectivity Cradle

The high-connectivity cradle is a desk-mountable peripheral that connects the pen
tablet to a variety of other computer devices. The high-connectivity cradle should
already be connected to the other devices and, optionally, secured to a desktop. This
section describes the insertion and removal of the pen tablet to and from the
high-connectivity cradle.
For a description of peripheral connectors on the high-connectivity cradle, see Table
2-2. Note that the high-connectivity cradle and the port replicator provide the same
connectors. For information about connecting devices, refer to the Connectivity
Peripherals Installation Guide: Point 510/Point 1600.

Inserting the Pen Tablet

To insert the pen tablet into the high-connectivity cradle,
1. Suspend or shut down and turn off the pen tablet.
Note that driver software for the peripheral device you intend to use with the
pen tablet system may need to be initialized upon starting the system. If this is
the case, you may need to shut down the system rather than suspend system
operation. Contact your local help desk or reseller for details on using specific
peripheral devices with your system.
2. Turn off any devices connected to the high-connectivity cradle.
3. If using a locking-style high-connectivity cradle, ensure that the cradle latches
inside the cradle are in the unlocked position. (See "Synchronizing Cradle
Latches" at the end of this chapter for a description of how the cradle latches in
the high-connectivity cradle work.)
4. Choose one of the following only if you have a locking version of the
high-connectivity cradle. If you have a non-locking version, skip this step.
• If you intend to lock the pen tablet into the high-connectivity cradle, ensure
that the tubular lock is in the unlocked position. See "Locking and Unlocking
the High-Connectivity Cradle" later in this chapter.
• If you do not intend to lock the pen tablet into the high-connectivity cradle,
you can set the tubular lock in the locked position if desired. This ensures that
the cradle latches stay in the unlocked position when you insert the pen
tablet into the cradle.
