Docking Solution - Asus M8 User Manual

Docking Solution

For long-term use of the Notebook PC or if the Notebook PC is intended to be a desktop replacement
computer, the PortBar provides a convient docking solution. A desktop PS/2 mouse, PS/2 keyboard,
monitor, printer, serial device, and Notebook PC power can all be connected to the PortBar. Like the
PortDock, the PortBar also requires USB devices to be connected to the Notebook PC. When the Note-
book PC is used on a permanent desk, the single docking connector can be easily used to connect or
disconnect all of these desktop peripherals at once. The result is a complete desktop computer with a
space-saving flat panel! When portability is required simply remove the PortBar connector (and other
cables if used) and you're off!
TIP: A second power adapter will be useful so that you do not have to get under your desk to
unplug the power cord each time you transport your Notebook PC. With a second power adapter
kept within the carrying case, you will always have it with you when you take off in a hurry.
