To disconnect and reconnect the CD-ROM drive

1. If you are using Windows 95, click Start, Eject PC. (This removes the OmniBook
from its "docked" configuration with the CD-ROM drive.)
2. Unplug the SCSI adapter cable from the OmniBook's docking/SCSI connector.
This causes an "undocking event" on the OmniBook.
If you're using Windows for Workgroups, you should then restart your
computer: exit Windows and press
"UNDOCKED" prompt and press ENTER to restart.
3. Turn off the CD-ROM drive. The "on" message disappears from the CD-ROM
display.
4. When reconnecting the CD-ROM drive, make sure the drive is on before you
connect the cable. If you are using Windows for Workgroups, you will need to
restart the computer. (You may see a "DOCKED" message prompting this.)
You can turn off the OmniBook and/or CD-ROM drive (such as to save power if you
are using batteries) without affecting the "docking" configuration of the CD-ROM
drive. If you are using Windows for Workgroups, you might see a "DOCKED"
message when you turn the OmniBook back on, but you actually do not need to
restart the computer (unless you have changed a peripheral connection).
