Other Options
Extra Battery Pack
Keeping an extra, fully charged battery pack (TI Part No. 2566962-0001) on hand can
extend the time you can operate your computer on its internal battery. Install and remove
the battery pack as described in Chapter 3.
LapLink File Transfer Utility
You can order the LapLink File Transfer Utility Kit (TI Part No. 2567016-000 1),
consisting of a special cable and the LapLink File Transfer Utility User's Manual to
enable you to connect your TravelMate 3000 to another compatible computer. The
necessary LapLink software is already installed on the hard disk at the factory.
Printers
Texas Instruments makes a variety of laser and impact printers you can use with your
TravelMate 3000. And you can connect almost any parallel printer to the 25-pin parallel
port or a serial printer to the nine-pin RS-232C serial port. Both ports are located on the
left side panel of the TravelMate 3000 case.
To use a serial printer, load the Setup Program as described in Chapter 4 and set the
Standard Comm category to match your serial printer. Then connect the printer to the
serial port on the left side panel of the TravelMate 3000 case.
Mouse
You can connect a PS/2-compatible mouse to the mouse port on the left side panel. Be
sure to add a mouse device driver line to your CONFIG.SYS file, or include a TSR
(terminate and stay resident) mouse program (such as MOUSE.COM) in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. See the documentation furnished with your mouse for details.
