sound will be recorded.
■If you connect a monaural (single-channel) microphone,
left-channel sound will record on both channels.
■If you connect a dynamic microphone, the recommended
sensitivity may not be achieved.
✎When an external microphone is connected to the tablet PC, the
tablet PC internal microphone is disabled.
Using the Audio-Out (Headphone) Jack
ÅWARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, adjust the volume
before putting on headphones or a headset.
ÄCAUTION: To prevent possible damage to an external device, do not
plug a single sound channel (monaural) connector into the headphone
jack.

The tablet PC can support one S-Video device connected to the
S-Video out jack while simultaneously supporting an image on
the tablet PC display and on any other supported external display.
The S-Video connection usually provides an image of higher
quality than a composite-video connection provides.
To transmit video signals through the S-Video out jack, you need
an S-Video cable, available from most electronics retailers. If you
are combining audio and video functions, such as playing a movie
from a DVD in an optional MultiBay drive to a television, you
also need a standard audio cable, available from most electronics
retailers.
Using the S-Video Out Jack
To connect a video device to the S-Video out jack:
1. Plug either end of the S-Video cable into the S-Video out jack
on the tablet PC.

networks in corporate offices, your home, and public places.
Wireless networks include wireless local area networks
(WLANs) or “hotspots.” Hotspots are wireless access points
available in public places, such as airports, restaurants, coffee
shops, hotels, and universities.
■A Bluetooth wireless notebook can connect to other
Bluetooth wireless-enabled devices using a wireless personal

Wireless Local Area Network (Select
Models Only)
With the 802.11 wireless device, you can access a wireless local
area network (WLAN), which is composed of other computers
and accessories linked by a wireless router or a wireless access
point.
■A large scale WLAN, such as a corporate WLAN or public
WLAN hotspot, typically use wireless access points, that can
handle a large number of computers and accessories and can
separate critical network functions.
■A home or small office WLAN typically uses a wireless
router, which enables several wireless and wired computers to
share an Internet connection, a printer, and files without
additional pieces of hardware or software. Wireless access
point and wireless router are often used interchangeably.
Notebooks with 802.11 WLAN devices may support one or more
of three IEEE physical layer standards:
■802.11a
■802.11b
■802.11g
There are three popular implementations of WLAN adapters:
■802.11b only
■802.11b/g
■802.11a/b/g
802.11b, the first popular WLAN standard, supports data rates of
up to 11 Mbps and operates at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. 802.11g,
which came later, also operates at 2.4 GHz but supports data rates
of up to 54 Mbps. An 802.11g WLAN device is backward
compatible with 802.11b devices, so they can operate on the same
network. 802.11a supports data rates of up to 54 Mbps but
operates at a frequency of 5 GHz. 802.11a is not compatible with

■An optional broadband modem (either DSL or cable) and
high-speed Internet service purchased from an Internet
service provider (ISP) 1.
■An optional wireless router (purchased separately) 2.
■Your wireless notebook 3.
As this network grows, additional wireless and wired computers
can be connected to the network to access the Internet.
✎If you need technical assistance to install your WLAN, contact
the router manufacturer or your ISP.

are installed and that the 802.11 wireless device is correctly
configured.
✎If you are using an integrated 802.11 wireless device, all
required drivers are installed and the adapter is
preconfigured and ready for use.
■If you are using an integrated 802.11 wireless device, verify
that the 802.11 wireless device is turned on. When the 802.11
wireless device is turned on, the wireless light is turned on. If
the wireless light is off, turn on the 802.11 wireless device.
Refer to the “Turning On, Turning Off, Enabling and
Disabling the 802.11 Wireless and Bluetooth Devices”
section.
■For your home WLAN, verify that your router is correctly
configured. For instructions, refer to your router
documentation.
✎Functional range for subsequent WLAN connections vary,
depending on your notebook WLAN implementation, router
manufacturer, and interference from varying types of walls and
other electronic devices.
For more information about using a WLAN connection:
■Refer to information from your ISP and the documentation
included with your wireless router and other WLAN
equipment.
■Access the information and Web site links provided at
Start > Help and Support.
■Refer to the documentation included with your notebook. The
Troubleshooting guide on the Notebook Documentation CD

Using Wireless Security Features
When you set up your own WLAN or access an existing WLAN,
always ensure that security features are protecting the WLAN. If
you do not enable security on your WLAN, an unauthorized
wireless user can access your notebook data and use your Internet
connection without your knowledge.
The most common security levels are Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA)-Personal and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). In
addition to enabling WPA-Personal or WEP security encryption
on the router, you may want to use one or more of the following
security measures:
■Change the default network name (SSID) and password.
■Use a firewall.
■Set security on your Web browser.
■Enable MAC address filtering on the router.
For more information about WLAN security, refer to the HP Web
site at http://www.hp.com/go/wireless for details.
Installing Wireless Software (Optional)
Microsoft Windows XP supports WLAN configuration with the
Zero Client Configuration feature. HP provides a separate WLAN
configuration utility that must be installed if you plan to use
Cisco Compatible Extensions. Cisco Compatible Extensions
enable wireless devices to use Cicso-based WLANs.

(peer-to-peer) network. Provides a mechanism that enables a
Bluetooth device to access a remote network through a
network access point. The network access points can be
traditional LAN data access points or group ad-hoc networks
that represent a set of devices that are attached only to one
another.
■Dial-up networking—Connects Bluetooth devices to the
Internet.
