to charge batteries. MultiBay I will accept Compaq LTE Elite hard drives.

1.7.7 PC Card Slots

Each expansion base has two Type III PC Card slots that function similarly to the PC card slots on the computer. Each PC Card slot on the expansion base supports one Type I, one Type II, or one Type III PC Card. The only serviceable part of the PC card slots are the slot doors. The rails and connectors are incorporated into the main board.

1.7.8 Computer Docking Mechanism

The computer docking mechanism has a lever that protrudes from the right side of either expansion base and serves to aid in seating the computer when it is pushed toward the rear of the expansion base. The lever releases the computer from the expansion base when it is pushed toward the front of the expansion base.

1.7.9 ISA Expansion Board

The MultiBay ISA Expansion Base provides one slot for an 8- or 16-bit, full-length industry-standard (ISA) expansion board.

The following provisions must be considered when choosing the type of ISA expansion board to be installed in the expansion base:

o The enhanced video performance of the Compaq LTE 5000 Family of Personal

Computers drives an external monitor at resolutions up to 1024 x 768 x 256 colors and at selectable refresh rates up to 72 Hz, making the use of ISA graphics controller boards unnecessary. If an ISA graphics controller card is installed, the system will not operate. Graphics controller boards are not supported.

o If a National NE2000 or compatible network ISA board is installed, the built-in ethernet connectors in the expansion base are disabled. To re-enable the built-in ethernet network feature, the NE2000 or compatible network ISA expansion board must be removed.

Two Network Interface Cards (NICs) can be enabled at one time as long as both are not NE2000 or compatible.

NOTE: NICs that have a default address of 300h require setup configuration changes because the built-in ethernet uses the 300h address.

o Some Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) ISA boards cannot be installed

as they require connection to the "feature connector" of the graphics controller. This feature connector is not provided on the MultiBay ISA Expansion Base. MPEG ISA boards with a standard video port (external monitor connector) that do not require connection to the feature connector on the graphics controller should function satisfactorily.
