HP has too many 'UltraSlim Docking Stations.

I have a G1 EliteBook Folio 1040 on command.
I want to buy a HP docking station.

Record: same as D9Y32UT (two displayports)

Compatibility: same as D9Y32UT

Summary: the above four products, one (B9C87AA) is supposed to be compatible with the EliteBook Folio 1040 G1.

(B) to the title of the webpage "HP EliteBook Folio G1 Notebook PC (F2R72UT)"

Click on the tab "Accessories, supplies & Services.
Click on 'docking station and port replicator.

It is important to realize that the Web page of G1 EliteBook Folio 1040 points to ALL the following as "approved" Accessories for this computer.

1 UltraSlim HP docking station
B9C87AA, $199

Record: does NOT say how displayports there.

Compatibility:
The page Web of E.B. Folio 1040 G1 says it's compatible.
Inclusion on the list 'Supplies and accessories' says it's compatible.

2 HP 2013 UltraSlim Docking Station
D9Y32UT, $159

Record: does NOT say how displayports there.

Compatibility:
The page Web of E.B. Folio 1040 G1 says it's compatible.
But the list under "Supplies & accessories" does NOT say that it is compatible.

3. UltraSlim HP docking station
B9C87UT, $149

Compatibility:

But the list under "Supplies & accessories" does NOT say that it is compatible.

You are looking for under the heading supplies & accessories, it shows four products and says it is compatible.

Examining the E.B. Folio 1040 G1 list of approved accessories, it shows that three products but said that all are compatible.

Then there is the important question the products indicated as 'approved' do not show displayports how much they have.

You could take the cautious approach and say you want to buy the product that is on BOTH lists - B9C87AA - even if 1) there are apparently only a single displayport and 2) it is the highest price of the four products.  Is this not a great combination, less for more!

But if you really, really want to be absolutely sure that you get the good docking station for your laptop computer of two thousand dollars, maybe grit you your teeth and do it anyway.

When you go to the B9C87AA Web page
http://h30094.www3.HP.com/product/SKU/10459812/mfg_partno/B9C87AA#ABA >
It seems to be good news.  It is on sale!

There is a link, "SmartBuy is available!

Click on this link and

...  WAIT FOR IT!  ...

It takes you to _a DIFFERENT product_, the B9C87UT!

What makes a mess of HP it!

Years ago the army had an acronym that describes the situation like this: * UBAR.

Then what would you do for a docking station for your G1 EliteBook Folio 1040?

Caramel, thanks for the link to the maintenance manual.  I downloaded it.

ssjdeng, thanks for the info.  I ordered the D9Y32UT.

  • HP Ultraslim docking station: connection HP ultraslim docking station with 2 external monitors

    Hi, I plan to donate a station host and two monitors to my husband so that he may set up a job at home for its HP Elitebook 840. I would be very grateful if someone can tell me if the HP Ultraslim to home station is compatible with monitors that I have chosen, the dell U2414H. its specifications are 2 connectors HDMI MHL, 1 mini dp 1 dp 1. 2 a, 1 dp MST, 4 USB 3.0 downstream ports and 1 upstream.

    Could someone tell me if I can put in place two of them with the docking station HP Ultraslim, what is the compatibility and what extra cables or adapters, I will need to make them compatible.

    Thanks a ton.

    Do you know what version of the HP Ultraslim Docking station you have?    There are a few specific changes with regard to the 2013 generation from the dock where the docking station has 2 DisplayPorts x instead of an earlier version that had a display port and a VGA.

    If you have the later generation of 2013 docking station and 2 x DisplayPorts, these monitors should be fine.  And you should of course two displayport cables to use with monitors (screens could come with them, but very sure they do).

    The 2013 model looks like this (2 ports to the right of the network socket):

    http://ECX.images-Amazon.com/images/I/61ZSGNoW0sL._SL1500_.jpg

    Whereas the old model looks like this (one DisplayPort, next to the network socket):

    http://content.hwigroup.NET/images/products_xl/172474/HP-UltraSlim-docking-station.jpg

    If the monitors do not come with cables, I highly recommend Monoprice.com as your source for people or ALL wiring.   The link below is for 3 feet of long cables, but according to available to his office, you can cable of 6 to 10 feet.  Below is an example:

    http://www.MonoPrice.com/product?P_ID=13359

    WARNING: I have seen several users posts on the forums here and outside hp directly complain that there are a number of questions using 2 monitors x DisplayPort, even with the 2013 version of the dock.  There is firmware available for the dock updates that help.    I wanted to just throw that out there because he's hit ' n Miss as to whether they work with multiple monitors, and because these screens have no VGA option, you cannot workaround to use VGA and DisplayPort (instead of 2 x DisplayPort) to make it work.

  • HP Elitebook 840 G1, G2, G3: Showing empty HP 2013 Ultraslim Docking station

    * It seems to connect has a new dock in a configuration that we already know works fixed whatever issue the dock. After connection to a working configuration, we can move to some other computer/editing we need to, and it continues to work. Not a real solution irritable, but it seems to work.

    When you try to use an adapter Displayport to VGA or DVI DisplayPort cable / to connect a HP 2013 Ultraslim Docking station to an external monitor, the screen comes up with no signal and goes to sleep. Connection with a VGA cable, it works very well. We have been able to reproduce this problem with several new, fresh out of the box docking station. The problem occurs on all monitors that connect us, even those who work with the other Docks to see.

    It seems to be the topology of Displayport Intel is picking up on the screen and making it so that the displayport cannot be enabled without connect 3 screens.

    The old version of the Ultraslim Docking station that had 1 displayport seems to work very well, it's just the most recent version 2013 which has 2 displayports who has this problem.

    Does anyone know if there is a newer firmware or where I can disable/stop the topology Displayport to pick it up a monitor and try to do 3 screens? If this isn't the case, we will probably have to go back to USB adapters and those who are no funny.

    Thank you

  • ZR2740w HP and HP Folio 9470 m / UltraSlim, Docking Station

    I have the following problem and hope someone in the forum as an idea / suggestion.

    When I connected screen via a cable port with the docking station display and I have my laptop connected, I get no signal and the screen keeps black. This is independent of the operating system - I have used Windows 7, Windows 8.

    When my laptop is connected, but I fix the cable directly to the laptop display port, it works without any problem.

    I also realized that with the other poster 23 "or 24" with the docking station installation works without problem.

    So it must be a cominbination between UltraSlim Docking Station and the ZR2740w screen.

    Any advise what should be judged?

    Update: After the call to HP support I have and being bounced between various clueless offshore tech support representatives, I finally landed on workstation support based in the United States.  Justin looked at the problem and identified as a known issue and replace my monitor cable with one that says that HP will work.   In addition, in the meantime, there is a solution that I understood.  If you do not use the display port on the docking ultraslim but pug the cable directly into the computer, it works fine.  There are some associated fact with what you have to plug each time dock you and unplug whenever you disconnect (and of course the cable always falls behind the desk while you do this), but it's okay as a solution while I'm waiting for the new cable to arrive.  Will update this post after that happens and report if it works.

  • Windows Movie Maker error importation 'may not be imported. "An interface has too many methods to fire from.

    I'm doing a movie using Windows Movie Maker and hobby clips that I converted to VHS using Roxio Easy VHS tapes to DVD converter.  When I try to import the file into the Movie Maker, I get a message saying 'could not be imported. "An interface has too many methods to fire from.  What should I do?

    This happens usually when your source files are

    be to convert video files to WMV format
    before you import into Movie Maker.

    There are many converters available on the net... some

    The following freeware converter is just one example:

  • Windows Movie Maker error - interface has too many methods to fire events from

    What it means?

    Hi Joe Frick,

    1. You receive a similar error message when you import .avi files in Windows movie maker?
    2. Are you able to import other types of files in Windows movie maker?
    3. Did you the latest changes on the computer?

    I suggest that you try to import other files in Windows movie maker avi video and also check if you import another file format in Windows movie maker.

  • How to I run a chain of command that has too many escape characters and others

    Hello

    I know that this is not a forum of PowerShell, but maybe this will eventually help someone else!

    I need to run the command following, just that one single line:

    curl - vvvv - XPUT - negotiate u: - insecurity - XPUT g h ' "Content-Type: application/json" "d '{\"hosttype\":\"server\', \"address\': [\"127. "

    "" "" "" "" [" 0.0.1\"], \"parents\": [], \"tag\ ': [\"demo\'], \"umiworker\": \"gent\", \"notes\": \"this is a test\ ', \"url\ ':------"http://www.tomtom.com------"} " https://someservert/v1/host/test "

    However, no matter how many times I put a variable for it, it still does not work.

    Can someone help me wrap this thing and run it in PS?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I had found this triple citing worked, but not for the media. Therefore, I used the Convertto-JSON with quotes to give me the correct output. I does only once because I use the string over and over again using variables instead of some mandatory parameters. NOTE: one line, runs the command that results from what is needed.

    « $json = "" "content-Type: application/json" "d" "{'" hosttype' ': '' server' ', '' address' ': ["' 127.0.0.1'"], "' parents'": [], '' tag' ': "' demo'"], '' umiworker' ': '' gent' ', '' notes' ': "' this is a test'", "' url'": ""http://www.tomtom.com"" ""} https://someservert/v1/host/test' | "» ConvertTo-JSON

    $json contains the following:

    "[" "\"\"Content-Type: application/json\"------"\"\"{\"\"hosttype\"\":\"\"server\"\",\"\"address\"\ d ': [\"\"127.0.0.1\"\" "], \"\"parents\"\ ": [], \"\"tag\"\ ': \"\"demo\"\ ']------,

    "{\"umiworker\"\ ': \"\"gent\"\ ', \"\"notes\"\ ': \"\"this is a test\"------", \"\"url\"\ ":------"------"http://www.tomtom.com------"------"} https://someservert/v1/host/test"

    Then I put the parameters of command/set. I realize, I could use the $json variable here, maybe, but for me there is no need.

    "$cmd = @".

    "[' curl.exe - XPUT - H" \"\"Content-Type: application/json\ "------" \"\"{\"\"hosttype\"\":\"\"server\"\",\"\"address\"\ d ': [\"\"127.0.0.1\"\ ""], \"\"parents\"\": [], \"\"tag\"\ ': \"\"demo\"\ ']------,

    "{\"umiworker\"\ ': \"\"gent\"\ ', \"\"notes\"\ ': \"\"this is a test\"------", \"\"url\"\ ":------"------"http://www.tomtom.com------"------"} https://someservert/v1/host/test"
