HP 6570 Docking station

[AJ80001]

Hello,

I recently have a docking station for my HP6570B

My note book does not have battery and use it without battery as the docking station does not turn the laptop on and it has no reaction I wonder if I have to use battery alongside with the docking station or there is a problem in the docking station?

furthermore I need to know does docking station charges the battery during the time laptop is connected to it or not?

Regards.

My laptop is HP 6570b probook and the docking station is VB044AV

and they are compatible

The thing is when I connect the docking to my laptop it does not charge the laptop battery and when I remove the laptop battery  and connect the docking to it the docking does not turn on so the laptop

Hello

for sure you have a Power Supply connected to the Docking Station.

how many watts the docking Power supply  is able to provide ?

If I'm not wrong it should be at least 120W in order to provide power to both the Docking and 6570b.

Check if you are using a 120W power supply connected to the Docking station.
