Connecting a Port Replicator You can connect a port replicator to the computer while the computer is on or off. Connecting a port replicator while the computer is in a power saving mode (Standby or Hibernate) may result in data loss or a computer malfunction. You can use the AC adapter or battery to power the computer while it is connected to a port replicator. However, your system consumes battery power faster if multiple devices are attached to the port replicator. See Using the Battery for more information. Moving the computer with the port replicator attached could disconnect the AC adapter or power cord, and may cause the computer to lose power or malfunction. To connect a port replicator 1. Close active programs to prevent data loss. 2. Turn off the computer, and disconnect all attached devices. 3. Close the tilt stands on the computer. You can charge the battery by installing it before you connect the port replicator. The battery automatically charges once you connect the AC adapter. 4. Slide open the port replicator connector cover on the bottom of the computer. 5. Align the connector on the bottom of the computer with the port replicator connector, and gently push the computer down until it clicks into place. Connecting an AC Adapter to a Port Replicator 6.
