This manual covers building a complete system by connecting peripherals such as monitors, keyboards, mice, external storage devices (like CD-ROM drives), modems, and printers.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Duo Dock a standalone computer?

No, a Duo Dock itself is not a computer; you need a PowerBook Duo to use it.

What devices can the Duo Dock accommodate?

It can accommodate any Macintosh-compatible monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer, hard disk drive, CD-ROM drive, scanner, or other device.

How do I know if my computer is causing radio interference?

You can determine this by turning the computer system off; if the interference stops, it was probably caused by the computer.
