To resolve operating problems

If a serial or parallel device, external display, or floppy drive doesn't work
Make sure the OmniBook is fully inserting in the docking system. Connection
should be snug.
If the green light on the docking system isn't on, check power to the docking
system, then try undocking and docking again.
If a parallel device will not work correctly, its bus speed might be too slow for
the OmniBook. You can decrease the OmniBook's bus speed to 33 MHz by
holding down the key and pressing the minus key. (To restore the normal
FN
speed, press and the plus key simultaneously.)
