Preparing the BIOS for the ExpressCard
Before installing the ExpressCard Docking station, it is very important
that you make sure that your system BIOS has the latest BIOS update
available. A number of system vendors have released updates that fix
many issues related to the ExpressCard Slot.
Please visit the Targus website for a list of known notebooks that
requires BIOS update in order to operate correctly with the Express-
Card docking system. http://www.targus.com

About the ExpressCard Connector Card
The ExpressCard dock comes with a cable and 34mm card to connect
to an ExpressCard slot in your notebook. The cable is removable from
the card. The card can be left in your system when not in use.
The 34mm card has a small switch located in the circular area in the
drawing below.
This switch is used to determine how the dock is recognized in the
system at boot up stage. Certain notebooks will detect the dock and not
work properly during a pre-boot mode (ie. trying to boot up on the
external VGA device, not the internal VGA of the Notebook). This switch
needs to be set only once, and most model notebooks will not have an
issue.
This issue was observed in notebooks that use Phoenix BIOS (e.g.
Fujitsu, some models of Sony and Toshiba). If you experience an issue
with this, please switch it to the “On” for Pre-boot mode. The default
position is “Off”.
Systems requiring pre-boot function (Switch set to “On” position):
1. Toshiba Satellite A100
2. Fujitsu E8020
3. Fujitsu S7021
When connecting the cable to the ExpressCard, Please make sure the cable tip is
properly and completely inserted into the cable port on the ExpressCard. Make
sure the tip is connected in the correct direction and do not force the connection
or it might break the device.

The spacer simply snaps on to the existing ExpressCard and is
inserted with the card connector into a 54mm ExpressCard slot.
A spacer is available for the ExpressCard to ensure the proper fitting of
the 34mm ExpressCard into a 54mm slot. This spacer has no function-
ality other than to prevent any movement of the card once it is inserted
into the 54mm slot. The spacer is not needed if you have a 34mm slot
on your notebook. (See the diagram below as to the two different slots
that are currently shipping in today's notebooks)
Using the Spacer Connector
Carefully align the spacer with the ExpressCard and join the two
pieces together by locking the clip in place.
Please make sure that the clip is firmly secured and no gap is in
between the two items. As shown in the diagrams above.
