To use a docking product

For Pavilion models, docking is supported with only the F1451 port replicator.
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 don't have a tray labeled for the
Omnibook 6000 or Pavilion series, you'll need to purchase HP accessory F2012A.
1. Slide the rear of the tray into the dock as shown on the dock label.
