Advanced Mini-Dock 250410U power supply and compatibility questions.

I just purchased a new T400 2764-CTO which has the discrete video.  I replaced a three year old T43 with a screen that failed.  Lenovoi told me my two port replicators for the T43 would work on the T400.  That proved to be an error.  So now I am in the market for a T400 port replicator.  I am looking at the Lenovo Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock 250410U.  I have purchased two power supplies and so do not need another power supply.  I don't trust Lenovo for an accurate answer.
My questions: Can I purchase an Advanced Mini Dock without the power supply?  And secondly, will this Mini-dock work with the T400 2764-CTO.  (I am running Vista Business as my sole OS.)
Thanks for any help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

yes, 250410U is the correct part number for the advanced mini dock compatible with the T400.
it is sold with an a/c adapter and unfortunately cannot be purchased separately.   you could, however, resell the adapter if you don't want it.   forum.thinkpads.com has a free marketplace if you're interested.

  • Mini dock without power supply

    Hi, guys,
       I'm looking for a second Lenovo Mini Dock Plus 433830U Docking Station, but I don't want to spend $230. Is the dock available without the power supply? If so, where?
                                                             Thanks,  ZZ

    Hi Zipzap:
    I don't have one for sale, but I do have a couple of suggestions for you:
    1) Just enter the part number into a Google search box, the result returned by Google will be a 'product search' listing prices at various vendors.  Lowest price I saw when I did this a few moments ago was $178 (complete, with power supply!) at, of all places, Sears.
    2) Try eBay - it's a great place to find stuff like this.  Again, just enter the part number.
    If you happen to find one at a nice price that is located in Canada, let me know... I need to get a second one.

  • 2504 Advanced Mini-dock and Thinkpad T61

    I have a 2504 Advanced mini-dock in the office and it works fine.
    I've bought another 2504 FRU 41W6563 for home. It only seems to part work though. When you put the machine in the dock the power supply is detected from the mini-dock, but nothing else seems to work, especially the USB ports, even if I shutdown Windows, and reboot.
    With the switch in the unlocked position, there is no green light, when you switch it to locked, the red light comes on.
    I'm confused if this is the right mini-dock - Can anyone help or suggest anything?
    My Thinkpad is a T61, 7659-A71

    Hi
    I don't have a solution, but a similar problem. I wish there was some real documentation for this piece of hardware.
    I am using the advanced mini-dock with my new T61 (14.1" with the integrated graphics card) and it's all hit-and-miss.
    Undocking the laptop seems to provide no problems, but getting it to dock really is hit and miss. More often than not it doesn't seem to work.
    The display setting won't switch, and I can't get to the display manager or if I can it shows only the default setting as the choice. Most of the time the display on my T61 is blank too.
    I have it set up so that it's supposed to switch to the external DVI monitor at 1280x1024. When it works it work beautifully, but the fact that it doesn't makes me use the docking station less often
    that I would
    Are there some do's and don'ts or a FAQ regaring the use of the docking station? The only instructions that came with it was one sheet of drawings. I looked on the lenovo site for more instructions but didn't find any.
    What is the purpose of the power switch on the dock? I can't tell when it's on or off (or if it even does something). Ie when the T61 isn't docked, I don't see anything if I push the power button on the dock.
    I really like the idea of the docking station, I just wish it would work better for me.
    Does the system have to be up and running if it's docked? Do I have to be logged in? Can I have a wireless USB mouse attached to the T61 when I dock it?
    Is there a problem with the display manager software that make the automatic mode switching problematic?
    EB
    PS: New one, the cabled USB mouse isn't working when attached to the docking station, but works when directly attached to the T61. This has worked in the past. The external keyboard is working fine though ... odd

  • Advanced Mini Dock Plus - Design Issues

    I have purchased the Thinkpad Advanced Mini Dock Plus for my T410 but have a couple of concerns that I wonder if people have experience with:
    - The Vent design appears to be most illogical - the CPU Vent is on the left back/side of the T410.  When in the dock, this is where the solid locating corner is with the power switch.  The clearance is around 5mm on the left intake, although I see the fan does vent through a grill in the dock at the rear.  My fan always runs faster when docked - is there a thermal/airflow issue here?
    - When docked, the laptop leans at around 20 degrees from the horizontal.  Hard drives are actually only within specification when operated at <5 degrees from one of the 3 planes.  I have concerns this design will cause premature drive failure.
    Has anyone used a dock extensively and have feedback with these two items?

    Hi warder!
    The T410 uses Series 3 docks. Per the tabook, any of these are compatible:
    ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3 433710U
    ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 433810U
    ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 (Mobile WS) 433820U
    The ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus for Mobile Workstations Series 3 433820U is compatible with the T410 but optimized for the W510.
    The Advanced Mini Dock 250410U is the T400 dock, and not compatible with the T410.
    Which do you have?
    I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • Problem with T61 and DVI External Monitor (via Advanced Mini-Dock)

    Ever since I upgraded to Vista SP1 on my ThinkPad T61 (with an Intel integrated 965 series graphics card), I've been having problems when I try to use an external monitor via the DVI port in my Advanced Mini-dock.  I'm curious if other people have experienced this problem.
    The problems surfaces when I first boot up, or sometimes after my ThinkPad has been running for awhile (particularly when I do something graphics related, such as right-clicking to open display properties).  The picture starts to flicker (or disappear and reappear, like the screen does when changing graphics resolutions).  I also hear the "ba-bum" sound that you hear when disconnecting a piece of hardware, followed by the "bum-ba" reconnection sound - these two sounds happen repeatedly (sometimes as fast as once per second).  If I don't do anything, sometimes I'll get a bluescreen.
    Not long ago, I found a fix of sorts: to stop the flickering/reconnecting, I just open Task Manager and stop the process called "igfxpers" (an Intel driver problem).  The problem always disappears after I do this, although I have to remember to do it every time I reboot or else the problem comes back.  So it's not an ideal fix.
    This problem doesn't happen when I connect an external monitor using the analog VGA port, or when I'm just using the notebook LCD.  It's limited to just the DVI connection.  I've tried two different digital monitors (one LG, the other BenQ) as well as two DVI cables - the problem is still the same.  So it seems like a driver problem of some sort - unfortunately, the Intel drivers haven't been updated since last February.
    I should also note that I've tried reinstalling my OS two or three times, and the problem always comes back.  Has anyone else had this problem, and is a fix on the way?

    Error Message:
    Input signal out of range. Translation:
    You will see this on an otherwise blank screen. Assuming that the data cable is plugged in correctly, the video card is feeding the monitor a signal stream in excess of what the monitor can accommodate. The two main causes for this are that the user has set either the resolution or the vertical frequency rate too high. For example, you might set a new graphics card to display at 1,280 x 1,024, but if the monitor is only capable of 1,024 x 768 resolution, you’ll get a Sync Out of Range error. This is especially common in 14-inch monitors.
    Solution:
    Because you obviously can’t make settings changes from within regular Windows, you’ll need to reboot into Windows Safe Mode. When you restart the system, there is a point during boot up when the system switches from reporting diagnostics and detected components to loading Windows. This point is usually accompanied by a beep and the screen going black. Just before this point, you want to start repeatedly pressing the F8 key. This should bring up a menu of Windows boot options. The one you want to pick is Safe Mode.
    From Safe Mode right-click the Desktop and select Properties. Go to the Settings tab and use the slider to drop your resolution a notch or two. Reboot and let Windows try to go into Normal mode. If this still doesn’t work, go back into Safe Mode and get to the Settings tab of Display Properties. Click the Advanced button, go to the Monitor tab, and check your refresh rate. The lowest advisable rate is usually 60Hz, although this works better for LCDs (liquid-crystal displays) than CRTs (cathode ray tubes). Apply the change and reboot.

  • MDD power supply and fan upgrade kit question.

    Hello, Its been a few years since I posted anything here and I'm getting ready to (possibly) trade in my mirror drive door 1GHZ dual processor machine on one of the current imac-s.
    I'm not real hopeful that putting much work into my current machine is worth it. Here's why:
    1) crazy levels of noise - I wear woodworking hearing protectors when I surf the web. Listening to music on itunes is fine so long as you like a background of low level blow dryer noise!
    2) I'm still running OSX version 10.2.8, I have been too cheap to buy the latest OS. I'm tempted to go out and spend the $119 on 10.5 but I only have the original 256mb of ram installed and since the min requirement of ram is 512, I know I'll need to spend an extra ~50$ on a 512mb PC2700 ram chip. My price tag to do a minimal update is rising...
    3) I would love to neutralize the noise and install the Apple provided MDD power supply and fan retrofit kit that they sent me at no charge several years ago while I was still under warranty. But I never did because the tech at my local (Dayton Ohio) reseller told me that the kit only addressed high noise levels when rebooting in OS9. So I never bothered. Looking on ebay, I see where power supplies for G4's could fetch 75 or 100$ or so.
    In summary, here are my questions.
    1) Has anything come along recently to tame MDD G4 fan noise that is easy to install, cost-effective and most of all, something that actually works to decrease the noise?
    2) To get the quietest, quickest performance with the current OS 10.5 should I cut my losses now and trade (or sell on ebay) my MDD, sell the new power supply and just purchase a new machine with the OS already installed?
    Thanks a bunch in advance for any assistance...
    from Bill.

    Bill,
    Carl has some pretty good points that I'd agree with - trying the replacement PSU and fans should quiet it down somewhat and replacing the stock main fan with a newer, quieter unit will also help. But I'm going to disagree with him on running Leopard on the G4's with a few reservations.
    As you might notice from my profile, I'm running Leopard on my dual-867 MDD and find the performance acceptable; perhaps a little slower than Tiger in some respects but it does run well enough within the limitations of the G4's capabilities. The reservation I have about recommending Leopard on a G4 is the graphics card - without Core Image support (which you won't have unless you upgrade the video card) Leopard is going to tax the CPU more and may bog down in some tasks like Quick Look and Cover Flow.
    In the end, whether to continue upgrading the G4 is a matter of use and economics. Tiger would be a fine upgrade with minimal cost and squeeze a few more years out of your G4 if you're not requiring software that needs an Intel CPU (like certain iLife '08 apps).

  • T60, Advanced Mini-Dock: Wireless connection fails after undock

    I have a Thinkpad T60 that I use at work, normally docked in a Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock, but occasionally undock (to bring to a meeting, etc.).  Normally, the wireless works fine -- I can connect to the wireless network at work, to my home wireless network, and to public access points (e.g. at a coffee shop) with no trouble.  In the past, at work, when I undocked the machine, the ThinkVantage Access Connections application would automatically switch me from my wired LAN connection to the office's wireless LAN, and everything would work great.
    However, about a month ago, I started experiencing a problem where after I undock, ThinkVantage Access Connections doesn't automatically connect me to the office wireless network.  If I manually try to get ThinkVantage Access Connections to connect to the wireless network (by left-clicking on the ThinkVantage Access Connections in the system tray and selecting [my work network name] | Connect from the context menu that appears), it fails; the connection attempt fails on the "Applying Wireless Settings" step (the very first step).
    From this failed state, if I leave the computer undocked and reboot it, the wireless will work ok following the reboot.  (The "Applying Wiress Settings" step seems to take an abnormally long time in this case, but it does eventually succeed.)
    I'm running Windows XP SP2, and ThinkVantage Access Connections 4.52 (the current latest version).  The wireless card is the "Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG"; it is running driver version 11.05.0.APIc (the current latest version).
    This problem *may* have started happening immediately after I installed a round of updates through the ThinkVantage System Update application (I'm not 100% sure).  I can see via System Update's Install History window that both Access Connections 4.52 and the 11.05.0.APIc wireless card driver were installed on 5/16/2008.
    One other data point: Yesterday, after undocking my machine, the "Access Connections Main Service" crashed (I got the typical Windows XP "[application] has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience" dialog.)  I manually restarted Access Connections via its Start menu entry (Start | Programs | ThinkVantage | Access Connections), and after that, I *was* able to successfully connect to the wireless network without rebooting.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for a better solution than rebooting after each undock, or possibly, manually killing and restarting the ThinkVantage Access Connections process after each undock?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Reverting to ThinkVantage Access Connections 4.42 solved this problem for me.  (As noted above, I was previously running 4.52.)  My laptop now once again automatically and successfully connects to the local wireless network following an undock.
    I do get an error dialog now on an undock or redock.  Dialog caption: "netsh.exe - Unable to Locate Component".  Dialog text: "This application has failed to start because framedyn.dll was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem."
    However, the error dialog seems to be "harmless" in that at least my network connections are now working like they should, and it's easy enough to click the OK button to dismiss the dialog. 

  • T400 + Advanced Mini Dock + Windows 7 -- Problems

    Hi,
    I have some problems with the named combination. When I put my t400 in the docking station sometimes or better most of the time the dock is not recognized or it seems to be not recognized. The external DVI TFT does not turn on. The same problem with the attached USB hub. Sometimes it is recognized and my mouse + keyboard works, sometimes not. Switcheable graphics is always in high performance mode.
    I have no clue what the problem is. Would be please if somebody could help.
    thanks alot!

    I am having a similar problem with my T400 and Advanced Mini Dock.  My T400 has integrated graphic, by the way.  I've found that if I plug my computer into the dock while it is running, it does not detect the external DVI monitor.  But if I boot while docked, it does detect and use the external monitor.  It is very strange.

  • Thinkpad Mini-dock 250410U: DVI Port

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a Belkin SOHO KVM switch with DVI and USB connectivity.   However, the DVI ports / cables are DVI-I and the port on my Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock appears to be DVI-D.  I tried using a DVI-I to VGA adapter to and plug it into the VGA port but with no success. Any other ideas or suggestions?  
    Thanks!

    I played around it with it some more and I didn't have the laptop pushed far enough into the dock. It seems there are two points at which the laptop clicks while pressing it into the dock. I had already updated the BIOS and now the display extends in Intel GPU mode and with the Radeon. Thanks for your help.

  • Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock (2504) - Ethernet issues

    Good evening:
    I'm having issues with my Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock's ethernet port. I've narrowed down to an issue with the docks port by:
    Updated driver to the latest on the Lenovo website and still experienced same issues.
    Changed the cable connecting the dock to the hub. Still had the same symptoms--worked for some time but then it wouldn't work. I'd disable and re-enbaled the device and sometimes that would do the trick. But it would fail in a few hours.
    Connected the cable directly to the DSL modem instead of the hub and no change in behavior.
    Finally, kept my Thinkpad T61 undocked for 2 weeks and used the side ethernet port on the laptop itself instead. That did not experience the same symptoms.
    I am not sure how to proceed. I had issues with my Thnkpad before and Lenovo support really hit me hard in the pocket. Granted, they did a great job fixing it and the turnaround time was VERY impressive but I do not have the money for another out of warranty repair.
    Has anyone experienced similar issues? Or anybody have any suggestions on what else to try?
    Thank you in advance!

    I have the same problem, I think.  Ethernet will not connect through the 2504 Mini-Dock.  Works fine if Thinkpad is not connected to the Mini-Dock and ethernet is connected to Thinkpad.  Kind of ruins the point of having a 2504 Mini-Dock.
    I guess this is not typical Lenovo quality, because it already lasted over 2 years before it stopped working.  That's pretty much a Lenovo longevity record for me.
    Any advice would be welcome, there are refurbished units showing on ebay for ~$25.

  • ThinkPad Advanced Mini-Dock -- Both outputs as VGA

    All,
    I'm now trying a ThinkPad Advanced Mini-Dock.  This dock has one VGA out and one DVI out.
    (www.lenovo.com/support/advancedminidock) 
    Don't know what the DVI flavor is.
    What adapter can I buy to convert this DVI out to VGA?  Tried some & they don't fit (extra pins on DVI adapters I've tried.)
    I wan't to connect two VGA monitors.
    Thank you,
    Marc

    Are you sure I can connect a DVI-A cable? 
    the connector on the dock is actually a dual-link DVI-I connector.   it can carry both a digital-only (DVI-D) signal and analog-only (DVI-A) signal.   the DVI-I socket is the most universal DVI socket.   the only place you'll see a DVI-D socket is on the backs of 30" displays pushing 2560x1600 pixels since dual-link DVI-D is the only way to drive this high of resolution.
    to answer your question... yes, i'm absolutely positive you can connect a DVI-A to VGA cable or DVI-A to VGA connector.   technically, those adapters shouldn't be labeled as DVI-I to VGA since they carry no digital connection.   they're only labeled as such because their pin configurations are meant to plug into DVI-I sockets.
    DVI is an unnecessarily confusing specification.   if the above still seems unclear then simply look for a DVI to VGA cable or adapter and forget the -A or -I suffixes.   the cable/adapter will work as long as you get the correct plug gender at each end.
    if you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

  • LEOPARD, BATTERIES, POWER SUPPLY and other power issues

    Hello ALL!
    Happy New Year!
    In fact I feel a bit scary last two days. Never had this kind of feeling since LB replaced :-D My scare related to the topics i've read here about batteries and leopard. Later below i will write my questions specific.
    I just summarise my problem:
    1. With battery installed unplug from mains leads to instant shutdown like it is some desktop.
    2. The battery now does not have LED indication at all even in system it comes up as 100 charged and System Profiler reads information from battery.
    3. When In unplug the laptop from mains first time, the battery did not give any indication of level of charge before i plug it in mains, after that it started charging and system indicator was trying to calculate remaining time till the end of charge endless...
    4. This battery was working fine since 3 years without significant reduction in capacity. Before yesterday it was enough power to watch 2-2.5 hours DVD.
    5. Battery seem to be dead. Mind that it was no slow reduction in capacity (keeping charge)
    6. I was making calibration with some regularity.
    7. While sleep mode with leopard seems battery drains faster even for me seems general operation after upgrade became longer.
    So my questions are:
    1. Is my battery really dead and needs replacement?
    2. If yes, what are the symptoms of normal dying of battery?
    3. Regarding all the posts which incline to Leopard as main cause of dying batteries should I run to buy a new one ....
    4.... or it is hardware problem which lays in DC in board (heard also about battery board) which was discussed here but nobody directly gave indication that it was real cause of the problem?
    5. Is it possible that even the battery will be brand new when i plug it in laptop it will die if it something related to hardware?
    Thank you very much even for some smallest but helpful suggestion.
    Ivan
    PS: I am not in USA and not in any closest distance to Apple Store genius, most of my friends now on MB or MBP or iMac so even have nobody to try battery on exchange or even power adapter.

    You didn't answer Illaass question, the newer minis have an internal power supply and should be connected directly to your mains, older ones have an external "brick". Since you mention the internal power supply, I guess your mini is one of the former, 120-240 V mains connected directly to the computer. If so, it should not be a problem using the tv power cord, if you actually have one of the older minis I don't see how you could connect the tv power cord, the contacts are really different.
    So, if you have a new mini without power brick between the mains outlet and your computer, there should be no problem using any other mains cord, provided the contacts are the same. These power cords are massmanufactured by several manufacturers according to intnational standards and freely exchangeable.

  • NX6800GT-T2D256E, Power supply and 6-pin connector

    My NX6800GT-T2D256E came with a power adapter: 2x 4-pin Molex to a 6-pin connector that goes into the VGA-Card.
    I've noticed that I have an identical 6-pin connector directly on my power supply (a Cieftec GPS-400AA-101A)
    According to the power supply's manual, it is a PCI power connector, seemingly for powering PCI-express VGA cards.
    Of course I want to use that connector, as it seems to be the ideal way of powering the card, but first I compared the pin configuration to make sure it is the same thing - and found a slight difference.
    On the Adapter supplied with the card, 1 of the pins is empty (not connected) while on the connector from my power supply it is connected to +12V
    Basically the pin configuration looks like this:
     1 4
     2 5
     3 6
    On the adapter supplied with the card they are:
    1:  +12V
    2:  NOT CONNECTED
    3:  +12V
    4:  Ground
    5:  Ground
    6:  Ground
    On the power supply they are:
    1:  +12V
    2:  +12V
    3:  +12V
    4:  Ground
    5:  Ground
    6:  Ground
    Can I safely use the connector from my power supply or could the additional +12V damage my VGA card?

    Your PC has a standard ATX power supply and physical sizes will vary slightly.  You might want to measure the dimensions of your power supply.  Normally the standard ATX PSU will measure 5.9" by 5.5" by 3.4".  You don't want to get too far away from the dimensions of your PSU since the HP mini-tower cabinets are very tight inside.  I prefer the modular model PSUs to help with excess cabling issues.  www.newegg.com has many good brands.  Not all PSUs are created equal.  Look at the warranty period, amperage on the 12+ volt bus, specification level, i7 support, efficiency rating etc..
    OCZ, Enermax, Corsair and Rosewill are all good brands as is Thermaltake.

  • How do I use LabVIEW to control and vary the voltage on my Agilent Power Supply and simultaneously record temp from 1 DMM and voltage from another DMM?

    I am using an Agilent Power Supply  to apply a voltage to a
    thermistor to heat an Al chassis.  I want to use LabVIEW to tell
    the power supply to apply 5V for 10 minutes, then step to 7V for 10
    minutes, etc.  I am completely new to LabVIEW, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
    In addition to that, I want to place a type J thermocouple onto the Al
    surface and use a Keithley 2000 DMM to monitor the temperature (it has
    a built in conversion from V to Temp for type J).  I will also be
    using another Kelthley 2000 DMM to record the output voltage of a new
    uncalibrated thermocouple.  I would like to collect the output
    voltage for this uncalibrated thermocouple and the temperature reading
    from the type J simultaneously.  How should I go about doing this
    in LabVIEW?  I will be using version 6.1.  The power supply
    and DMMs will be connected to a PC using GPIB.
    Again any suggestions would be greatly appreciated- I have no idea
    where to begin on such a project.  I have taught myself how to
    make a basic VI- converting temp in oC to oF, but  that is as far
    as my knowledge goes.

    What you want to do should be fairly straightward and a good way to learn labview. 
    First off, if you haven't already, I would download the drivers for the Keithley and Agilent instruments.  I found the keithley drivers at the link below.  You will need to find the labview drivers for the Agilent PS at their website.  Drivers are the VI's you will use in your program to control the insturments.

    If you open Labview and go to the help menu and click on Labview bookshelf there is alot of information on getting you started coding labview.   This should get you started, if you have anymore questions just ask in this same thread and I am sure you will get all the help you need.
