External Keyboard, Keypad, or Mouse: Dell Latitude CP and CPi
You can attach a PS/2-compatible mouse,
external 101- or 102-key keyboard, or external numeric keypad to
the computer's keyboard/keypad/mouse connector. This connector is
a 6-hole, miniature DIN connector.
 |
NOTE: If the computer
is in suspend mode or suspend-to-disk mode when an
external keyboard or numeric keypad is attached, the
device is recognized immediately by the computer when it
resumes normal operation. If you attach a mouse, programs
that were already running may need to be restarted in
order to recognize it. |
When you attach a PS/2 mouse to the computer,
the touch pad is automatically disabled when the computer
reboots. If you disconnect the mouse, the touch pad resumes
operation in standard PS/2 mode, which means that many of the
configuration features are disabled. When attaching a numeric
keypad or keyboard to the computer, the embedded numeric keypad
is automatically disabled. The internal keyboard and an external
keyboard can be used at the same time.
If you are using a PS/2 mouse that is not made by Microsoft
and the mouse does not work properly, reboot the computer. If the
mouse still does not work, install the drivers from the diskette
that came with the mouse and reboot the computer.
You can also connect an external keyboard, keypad, or mouse to
the C/Port APR or the C/Dock Expansion Station.
