To Connect a 1394 Device
(Select Models Only)
If your notebook has a 1394 port (also known as firewire), you
can use it to connect devices such as audio and video equipment,
disk drives, printers, and other notebooks.
Attach the device cable to the 1394 port. Windows automatically
recognizes the device.
The 1394 port is a 4-wire port. If you want to connect a device
that has a 6-wire plug, you can purchase a simple adapter if the
device is unpowered, or a hub if the device requires power.
If you have problems making this connection, go to the device
manufacturer Web site for the latest version of the driver for the
device.
To Connect an Infrared Device
(Select Models Only)
Select models include an infrared port. By default, the infrared
port is enabled.
If your model has an infrared port (a small, rectangular lens
located on the front of the notebook), then your notebook has
wireless serial communication capability. That is, your notebook
and other infrared devices, such as printers or other notebooks,
can communicate wirelessly using this port.
