HP OmniBook 6000 - Docking and Undocking the Computer

In this document:

To connect to a docking product

A docking product provides your computer with external connections that you can leave in place whenever you remove the computer from your desk. Instead of disconnecting and reconnecting peripheral devices, you can simply undock and dock the computer.
For more information about using docking products, see the User's Guide that shipped with your dock.

Installing a docking tray

Your dock requires a tray that accommodates your specific computer model. Install this tray prior to connecting the computer to the dock. If you do not have a tray labeled for the HP OmniBook 6000, you will need to purchase HP accessory F2012A.

  1. Slide the rear of the tray into the dock as shown on the dock label.
  2. Push down firmly on both sides of the tray until it snaps into place.

    Step 2: Push down firmly on both sides of the tray.

To remove a tray from the dock, pull the latch (at the center front of the dock) towards you until the tray pops free.

Docking the computer

The computer can be on, suspended, or off when docking.

  1. Connect power to the dock - the type of connection depends on the dock. See the manual that came with the dock.
  2. Place the computer on the dock platform, with the rear of the computer facing the dock's docking connector. Make sure the computer's PC Card eject buttons are in.

    Step 2: Place the computer on the dock platform.

  1. Position your fingers on the platform grips as shown below. Use your thumbs to push the computer into the dock until the computer slides into place.

    Step 3: Use your thumbs to push the computer into the dock.

Undocking the computer

  1. Press the undock button on the front of the dock and wait for the undock light to blink. Then position your thumb as shown and pull the release lever forward.

    Step 1: Pull the release lever forward.

  1. Remove the computer from the dock.
