Introduction
Activity Lights
The ArmadaStation MiniStation EX has two activity lights.
MultiBay Light
The MultiBay light is located on the left side of the Armada MiniStation EX and is
visible from both the top and left sides of the Armada MiniStation EX. This light turns
on when information from a removable drive inserted in the MultiBay is accessed.
Battery Charging Light
The battery charging light is located on the right side of the Armada MiniStation EX
and is visible from both the top and right sides of the Armada MiniStation EX. This
light turns on when a battery is charging in the battery charging bay.
MultiBay
The MultiBay is located on the left side of the Armada MiniStation EX. The MultiBay
supports the same MultiBay devices that are supported in the computer MultiBay and
can be used to charge batteries. The Armada MiniStation EX MultiBay supports the
following devices:
CD-ROM drive
Second hard drive
Second battery pack
Diskette drive
Compaq LTE Elite and LTE 5000 hard drives that are configured for use as secondary
drives can be used in the Armada MiniStation EX MultiBay. A hard drive must be
inserted in an Armada 7000 Hard Drive MultiBay Adapter before it can be inserted in a
MultiBay.
The system (computer and Armada MiniStation EX) must be turned off when inserting
or removing a hard drive, diskette drive, or CD-ROM drive from the MultiBay. The
system does not have to be turned off when inserting or removing a battery pack.
Security Lock
The Armada MiniStation EX features a security lock that allows all computer and
Armada MiniStation EX resources (hard drives, diskette drives, and CD-ROM drives)
to be secured to the system (computer and Armada MiniStation EX). When the security
lock is engaged, no drives can be removed from the computer or Armada
MiniStation EX.
NOTE: The Armada MiniStation EX security lock does not secure the computer. A
Kensington lock can be used in the security cable slot to prevent the computer from
being undocked.
