Assembling the High-Connectivity Cradle

The following list outlines the process of assembling the high-connectivity cradle. Detailed procedures are given later in this section.

•Install the portable port expander in the cradle module.

To do so, follow the procedure given in “Assembling the Port Replicator” on page 2-3 before performing the following procedures. Do not, however, attach the feet or wire catch to the cradle module.

•Attach the cradle module to the cradle base.

•Install the AC adapter in the cradle base. (AC adapter sold separately or with pen tablet.)

The following hardware, supplied with connectivity peripheral components, is used in this assembly. (Note that other hardware is supplied that is not used in this assembly.)

•Knob, spacer, nylon washer, star lock washer, screw, and cover -to cover head of screw (included with cradle base)

•Two tube keys for use with the tubular lock (included with the locking version of the cradle module)

•Two screws to attach portable port expander to cradle module (included with portable port expander) To attach the cradle module to the cradle base,

1.Attach the portable port expander to the cradle module using the two screws provided with the portable port expander as shown in Figure 2-10. To do so, remove the latch and spacer from the portable port expander. See “Removing the Latch and Spacer” earlier in this chapter for details.

2.Insert the cradle module into the cradle base, as shown in Figure 2-10. Note that this may be a snug fit. The cradle base is equipped with metal brackets, one at each end where the screws fasten the cradle module. A felt pad is glued onto each bracket. Ensure that the felt pads remain in position (between the cradle module and the bracket) as you insert the cradle module.

3.Line up the screw holes in the side of the cradle module with those in the cradle base.

4.Determine which side the adjustment knob will be installed on. The knob can be installed on either the right or left side of the cradle module to accommodate right-handed or left-handed users.

5.Install the #10 screw, lock washer, and nylon washer on one side (opposite the side where the knob will be installed) to fasten the cradle module to the cradle base. (Do not fully tighten the screw at this time.) Ensure that the nylon washer is installed closest to the cradle base as shown in Figure 2-10.

6.Install the knob and spacer on the desired side of the cradle. (Do not tighten the knob in this step.)

7.Tighten the screw (that you installed in step 5) to 1/2 turn past finger tight and install the cover over the head of the screw as shown in Figure 2-10. To do so, remove the protective backing and apply the adhesive side of the cover toward the cradle.
