Tips for docking station support on ThinkPad models 570 and 570E:
On ThinkPad 570 series, Port Replicator with Advanced EtherJet can be attached only
through the UltraBase. This section explains how to attach or detach the system to/from
the port replicator.
UltraBase itself is not recognized as the docking station or the port replicator by
Windows Me. Even if you attach the UltraBase, Windows Me does not create the
hardware profile for the docking or show the “Eject PC” option in the Start menu. Since
the UltraBase is just a cable extension for the UltraslimBay, attaching or detaching the
UltraBase is more like attaching or detaching the UltraslimBay device. For more
information on how to attach/detach the UltraBase, refer to the “Hot and Warm swapping
support for supported ThinkPad models” section of this document.
On the ThinkPad 570 series, Windows Me offers docking support and configuration in
two ways:
1.
If you want to undock the computer from the IBM Advanced Port Replicator and
UltraBase, press the eject-request button located on the front of he UltraBase
unit. When window message appears “System can be removed from UltraBase
safely” or the status indicator (green LED) near the eject-request button is turned
off, physically detach the system-unit from the UltraBase by the eject levers on
side of the UltraBase.
2.
If you want to undock the computer from the IBM Advanced Port Replicator but
still have the computer attached to the UltraBase, you must press the eject request
marked with a “1” located on the port replicator or by clicking the “Eject PC”
option in the Start menu of the Windows Me. By doing this, only the IBM
