Using security features

The Duo Dock has a key-operated mechanical lock to prevent

theft of a docked PowerBook Duo. You can also lock PowerBooks

out of the dock—for example, to protect information on the

dock’s hard disk or to limit access to a network.

You can lock the dock when the PowerBook is inside or outside

the dock.

You can lock the PowerBook inside the dock when the

PowerBook is on or off.

To lock or unlock the dock, turn the key as shown in the

illustration.

Each Duo Dock comes with two keys. If you lose both of them,

you can:

m Contact the lock vendor for a replacement set of keys. Write to

Fort Lock Corporation, 3000 N. River Road, River Grove, IL

60171, USA, or call 708-456-1100 (in Illinois). Be prepared to

supply the code number printed on the tag that came with

the keys.

m Have a locksmith make a replacement set of keys.

m Have your Apple-authorized service provider replace the

entire lock assembly. The new assembly comes with two new

keys.

All these procedures may be expensive and time-consuming. It’s a

good idea to take precautions not to lose the keys.

The Duo Dock also has a security slot in the back panel to which

you can connect an optional locking cable, to prevent theft of the

dock. See an Apple-authorized dealer for more information.
