Connecting two VAIO notebooks
You can copy, edit or delete files on another VAIO computer to your computer with an optional i.LINK™
cable. If the second computer has the Windows
®
XP operating system, you just need the i.LINK™ cable. If
the second computer has a different operating system (for example, Windows
®
2000), you need a software
application such as Smart Connect. You can also print a document on a printer connected to another VAIO
computer.
If the notebook is connected to the optional docking station, proceed as follows to exchange data with
another computer using an i.LINK™ cable (optional):
1 Disconnect your notebook from the docking station.
2 Disconnect all cables from the docking station.
3 Set the i.LINK™ network switch on the bottom of the docking station to the position marked by a dot
(to the right) by means of a thin pen tip.
