Note CAUTION Add-On Devices Connecting External Devices To connect a USB device Your computer's universal serial bus (USB) provide a bi-directional serial interface for adding peripheral devices such as game controllers, serial and parallel ports, and scanners on a single bus. • Attach the device's USB cable to one of the computer's USB ports. Windows automatically recognizes the USB device. Some USB devices can be connected to the computer in series-this is called a daisy-chain connection. If you have problems making this connection, contact the device manufacturer and the HP Customer Care Web site (www.hp.com/go/support) for the latest version of the driver for the device. To connect an audio device Your computer includes a built-in microphone (just in front of the blue sleep button) that you can use to record voice, sound, and music. You can also plug in a stereo input source (such as a CD player), an external microphone, external speakers, or headphones. The audio jacks are three-terminal stereo jacks. They are not compatible with twoterminal mono plugs. Connecting a mono plug into the speaker-out jack may damage the computer. • Attach the audio cable to the corresponding audio port on the computer. Note When you plug a device into the external microphone port, the built-in microphone automatically turns off. When you plug a device into the audio out port, the built-in speakers automatically turn off. Reference Guide 85
