A DockMate System Installation diskette is provided with
your DockMate. Software on this diskette updates the
TravelMate BIOS software with the latest version that
supports your DockMate. If your TravelMate has a newer
version of BIOS than the one on the diskette, the program
will not change the BIOS on your system.
For your TM5000 Series computer to work correctly with
the DockMate, you must upgrade the BIOS (Basic
Input/Output System) with new firmware (FLASH ROM).
To upgrade the BIOS, complete the following steps:
1. Turn off power to your notebook computer.
2. Ensure the system is undocked.
3. Place the DockMate Installation diskette into drive A.
4. Turn on power to your notebook computer.
5. Follow instructions on the screen.
Note: If your system BIOS is more current than the BIOS
on the diskette, your system BIOS is not updated and you
®
n
are taken to the MS-DOS prompt. If this is the case,
remove the diskette and reboot.
6. When finished, remove the floppy disk and slide the
power switch off then on to boot.
7. During the boot process you will hear a beep.
Immediately press Ctrl-Alt-Esc.
8. If you have previously changed the configuration of TI
Setup for special hardware requirements, note the
settings before continuing to the next step. Reload
them later as required by your hardware.
9. From the Setup menu, press Esc-F5 to load factory
defaults.

Docking the Notebook
Use the following procedure to dock your notebook
computer:
1. Clear an area on your workstation surface to permit
both units to be flat on the table or desktop while
performing the initial docking procedure.
2. Ensure that the rear port covers on the TM5000 are
open.
3. Lift the lever on top of the DockMate so that the guide
pin plate is extended.
4. Carefully match the holes on the underside of the
notebook with the guide pins protruding from the
DockMate and press down on the top lever to dock.

Installing an External PS/2 Option
The DockMate allows you to attach any of the following to
the 6-pin PS/2 connectors on the system:
external keyboard (side port recommended)
❏
external PS/2 mouse (rear port recommended)
❏
external numeric keypad (rear or side port)
❏
To install the external PS/2 option, connect a round PS/2
connector cable to the 6-pin circular connector on the rear
or side of the system.
Serial Port Connections
Your DockMate is equipped with a 9-pin serial port with
16550 UART that can be attached to any external serial
device such as:
external modem
❏
serial printer
❏
any device that uses an RS-232 interface
❏
When using the Serial Port connection on the DockMate,
the Serial Port connector on the notebook is disabled.
Caution: Never connect a parallel device to a serial
port, or a serial device to a parallel port or video port;
this may cause damage to the DockMate. If you are
uncertain as to what type connector the external
device has, refer to the technical manual for the
external device.

2-6 DockMate Installation
DockMate Hardware Installation
Parallel Port Connections
Your DockMate is equipped with one DB25 (25-pin)
bidirectional parallel port (device name LPT1). This port
occupies address 0378h, and is designated as LPT1
(default value). Typically, the notebook computer sends
print data to LPT1 unless the menu is configured otherwise.
When using the Parallel Port connection on the DockMate,
the Parallel Port connector on the notebook is disabled.
Video Connector
To install an external VGA monitor (optional), connect the
VGA cable connector to the 15-pin connector on the rear of
the DockMate. The DockMate supports all external
monitors supported by the TM5000. For further
information, refer to the TravelMate 5000 User’s Guide.
Note: Refer to the TravelMate 5000 User’s Guide and User’s
Reference Guide for information on VGA utilities.
n
AC Connection
Your DockMate must run off of AC power by connecting a
TI AC adapter (TI Part No. 9786094-0003) to the system.
DockMate is designed to be powered by an AC adapter that
is attached to either the connected notebook or to the
DockMate (power transfers through the expansion bus
pins).
Caution: Only a TM5000 AC adapter, TI Part No.
9786094-0003, can be connected to a DockMate.

4-2 Troubleshooting Procedures
Option Installation
Option Installation
If you experience difficulty with a serial device, parallel
device, PS/2 device, or external VGA monitor, disconnect
the DockMate. Connect the peripheral to the notebook. If
it runs properly, you can determine that the anomaly lies
with the DockMate and not with your peripheral or with the
notebook.
Ports
If you are running Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95,
or MS-DOS and an external device (such as a printer) is
failing, check the following:
1. Ensure that the device’s I/O cable is the correct type
for the port and is securely installed.
2. Ensure that the external device is powered up and
properly connected to the DockMate System and that
the external device is properly configured (refer to
Chapter 2, DockMate Hardware Installation).
3. If you are experiencing a failure on the serial port,
check to see that the serial port is correctly configured
to match the settings in the external device (refer to
Chapter 4). If your application software does not
initialize the serial ports, you must use the MS-DOS
MODE command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file (refer to
your online MS-DOS User’s Manual for further
instructions).
Printer
If you are running Windows 95 and are experiencing
problems with printing, complete the following steps:
1. From the Windows Control Panel, select the System
icon.
2. Select the Device Manager.
3. Select the Printer port.
4. Verify that the I/O Range is 378-037A.
