Synchronizing Cradle Latches - Fujitsu Point 1600 User Manual

Synchronizing Cradle Latches

The port replicator, high-connectivity cradle, high-usage cradle, and wall-mount
cradle (collectively referred to here as the cradle) are available in locking and
non-locking versions. The locking versions are equipped with two "push-latch"
mechanisms (cradle latches) that hold the pen tablet in place when inserted. The
cradle latches (one on each side of the cradle) are activated when you push the pen
tablet into the cradle. When you insert the pen tablet into the cradle and push the pen
tablet down, the cradle latches click into the locked position, holding the pen tablet
into the cradle. When you push the pen tablet down (into the cradle) a second time,
the cradle latches click into the unlocked position, allowing the pen tablet to be
removed from the cradle.
Notes: • The pen tablet can be inserted into and removed from the cradle without
engaging the cradle latches. To do so, ensure that the cradle latches are in the
unlocked position and insert or remove the pen tablet into the cradle without
pushing the pen tablet down. (The weight of the pen tablet is sufficient to make
the connection between the cradle and the pen tablet.)
• The tubular lock can be used to lock the cradle latches in either the locked or
unlocked position. If locking the pen tablet into the cradle is not required, you
can ensure that the cradle latches remain in the unlocked position by setting the
tubular lock in the locked position.
Normally, you should be able to latch or unlatch the pen tablet without any concern,
however, since they operate independently, it is possible for the cradle latches to go
out of synchronization. That is, one latch can be in the locked position while the other
is in the unlocked position. When the cradle latches are out of synchronization, the
pen tablet cannot be inserted into (or removed from) the cradle. The following
discussion explains how to synchronize the cradle latches should they become
unsynchronized.
