Follow the on-screen instructions to set theuser password.USING YOUR LIFEBOOK SECURITY PANELThe security lock feature is in effect both when the system resumes from Off, Standby, or Hibernation state. You always need to push the Security Panel buttons to input the user password. Your system will not begin the boot sequence until you enter your supervisor/user password.From Off State1. Turn on your system.2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass-word and press Enter button.For example, if the password is 22222, first press Button 2 five times and press the Enter button. The Tablet PC will boot to normal operation.From Standby/Hibernation State1. Press your Suspend/Resume button.2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass-word and press Enter button.The Tablet PC should resume normal operation.Incorrect Password EntryIf an invalid supervisor or user password is entered three times in succession, the system will “beep” for about one minute. If a valid password is entered within a minute (while system beeps), the beeping will stop and the Tablet PC will resume normal operation. If no password is entered or an invalid password is entered while the system beeps, the system will return to its previous locked state (standby or off) and the Security Indicator will go off. To reactivate the Tablet PC after a password failure, you must press the Suspend/Resume button, then enter a correct password.PRECAUTIONSOpening and Closing the CoverBy default, closing the cover automatically places your system into Standby mode. (You can change the action the system takes when the cover is closed by opening the Power Options Properties icon in the Control Panel, and selecting the Advanced tab. Make a choice from the drop down menu for “When I close the lid of my portable computer:” and click the [OK] button.) Opening the cover does not automatically place the Tablet PC into normal operation. Instead, you must enter the proper security password after pushing the Suspend/Resume button.■The purpose of supervisor password is to be able to bypass the user password in case the user password is forgotten. The supervisor password alone will not lock the system.■You must set the supervisor and user passwords for the security panel to work.You may change or remove the supervisor or user password by repeating the steps defined above.Remember the user password you specified on the Security Panel Application. If you forget the password you will not be able to use your computer. The supervisor pass-word can override the user password.T Series.book Page 23 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

25Getting to Know Your Tablet PCFigure 2-19. Touchpad pointing deviceTouchpad Pointing DeviceThe Touchpad pointing device built into your Tablet PC is used to control the movement of the cursor to select items on your display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, left and right buttons, and a scroll button. The cursor control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires light pressure with the tip of your finger. The left and right buttons function the same as left and right mouse buttons. The scroll button allows you to navigate through pages quickly without using the scroll bars. The actual functionality of the buttons may vary depending on the application that is being used. (Figure 2-19)CLICKINGClicking means pushing and releasing a button. To left-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the left button once, and then immediately release it. To right-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the right button once, and then immedi-ately release it. (Figure 2-20)Figure 2-20. ClickingDOUBLE-CLICKINGDouble-clicking means pushing and releasing the left button twice in rapid succession. This procedure does not function with the right button. To double-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, pressand release the left button twice. (Figure 2-21)Figure 2-21. Double-clickingLeft ButtonRight ButtonScroll ButtonCursor ControlNEW GRAPHIC■If the interval between clicks is too long, the double-click will not be executed.■Parameters for the Touchpad can be adjusted from the Mouse dialog box located in the Windows Control Panel.T Series.book Page 25 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

29Getting to Know Your Tablet PCVolume ControlYour Fujitsu Tablet PC has multiple volume controls which interact with each other. CONTROLLING THE VOLUMEThe volume can be controlled in several different ways:■Volume can be set from within the Volume Control on the Taskbar.■Volume can be controlled with the [F8] and [F9] func-tions keys. Pressing [F8] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will decrease the volume of your Tablet PC. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your Tablet PC.■Volume can be controlled by many volume controls that are set within individual applications.■Certain external audio devices you might connect to your system may have hardware volume controls.■Each source discussed above puts an upper limit on the volume level that must then be followed by the other sources. We recommend that you experiment with the various volume controls to discover the optimal sound level.Any software that contains audio files will also contain a volume control of its own. If you install an external audio device that has an independent volume control, the hardware volume control and the software volume control will interact with each other. It should be noted that if you set your software volume to Off, you will override the external volume control setting. There are twenty-six levels through which the function keys cycle.

27Getting to Know Your Tablet PCPen and Active DigitizerUSING THE PENYou can use the LifeBook T Series Tablet PC pen to generate and create electronic “ink”, to select items, and to navigate through programs on the Tablet PC. Programs that support handwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen with the pen. You can also use the pen as a drawing tool.Figure 2-24. LifeBook T Series PenThe screen reacts when the pen tip is approximately 1/8 inch (3-5 mm) from the screen. The pen has three switches: a tip switch and a barrel button toggle switch with switches at both ends. By default, the tip switch corresponds to the left mouse button, and the front toggle (closest to the pen tip) barrel button switch corre-sponds to the right mouse button (when used in combi-nation with the tip switch). The rear toggle of the barrel button switch acts as an electronic ink "eraser".The functions of the rear toggle and the tip click pres-sure can be changed by clicking [Start] -> Control Panel, and double-clicking the Fujitsu Pen Settings icon. To change the rear toggle function, select the drop-down list to select a new function, then click [Apply]. If you don’t want the rear toggle to have any function, select Ignore from the list. Adjusting the click pressure determines how much pres-sure must be put on the pen tip in order for the screen to react. The softer it is set, less pressure is required; the harder it is set, more pressure is required. To change the click pressure, use the slider bar to make the click pres-sure harder or softer, then click [Apply]. Here are some hints that may help you use the pen more effectively:• To activate the tip switch, tap or hold the pen tip against the screen.• To activate the barrel button switch, press and hold the end of the button you wish to use (front toggle is the right mouse button switch; the rear toggle acts as an electronic “eraser”).• To move the cursor, hold the pen tip within 1/8 inch (3 - 5 mm) from the screen and move the pen.• To start a program, double-tap the pen tip (tap the pen tip twice rapidly) on the program icon as you would double-click a mouse.•To select an object, tap the pen tip on the object once. •To double-click an object, quickly tap the object twice.CALIBRATING THE PENIn order to ensure accurate tracking between the pen and cursor, you must run the Touch Screen Calibration Utility before you use the active digitizer for the first time, or after you change the display resolution.To run the calibration utility:1. Go to Start -> Control Panel and double-click on the Tablet and Pen Settings icon. 2. Click Calibrate.3. Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfort-able angle.You are advised to use a screen protector on your system display to minimize the chance of its being scratched. Screen protectors are available from the Fujitsu Web site at us.fujitsu.com/computers. The LifeBook T Series Tablet PC pen is a high-quality electronic instrument that can be damaged if used improperly. Treat the pen as you would any precision device. Observe the following guidelines:• Do not gesture with the pen, use it as a pointer, or tap it on surfaces other than the Tablet PC screen.• Do not try to turn the thumb grip on the pen; it is designed for inserting and removing the pen from the pen holder.• Never store the pen with the tip bearing the weight of the pen (e.g., sitting tip down in a pencil cup). Storing the pen tip down could distort the internal mechanism over a period of time (especially in higher temperatures), causing the tip to act as if it is always depressed. The pen should be stored in the pen holder when not in use.Tip SwitchBarrel SwitchUse only the pen provided with your Tablet PC. Do not use substitutes that were not designed for the LifeBook T Series Tablet PC.T Series.book Page 27 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

Repeat step 4 in the four corners, then click OK.REPLACING THE PEN TIPWith use, the pen tip may become worn or may pick up foreign particles that can scratch the screen. A damaged or worn tip may not move freely, causing unpredictable results when using the pen. If your pen exhibits these problems, you should replace the pen tip. To do so, use the pen tip removal tool included with your pen.Figure 2-25. Tip Removal ToolTo remove the tip, position the tip in the gap between the two ends of the tool (Figure 2-25). Pinch the tool together so the tip is firmly clasped, then pull it from the barrel. If the tip is worn or damaged, discard it.To replace the tip, retrieve one of the new tips that accompanied your pen. Insert the flat end of the tip into the barrel and push it in firmly until it is seated.If you need more tips, they can be ordered from the Fujitsu Web site at: us.fujitsu.com/computers.USING THE ACTIVE DIGITIZERThe integrated active digitizer allows you to use the included pen as a pointing device. You can use the pen to click, double-click, drag items and icons, or to draw like a pen or pencil in applications that support this behavior, such as drawing or painting programs. See the documentation that came with your application for details. (Figure 2-26)Figure 2-26.

36LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section ThreePower ManagementYour LifeBook T Series Tablet PC has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features are automatic and need no user intervention, such as those for the internal modem. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your oper-ating conditions, such as those for the display bright-ness. Internal power management for your Tablet PC may be controlled from settings made in your operating system, pre-bundled power management application, or from settings made in BIOS setup utility.Besides the options available for conserving battery power, there are also some things that you can do to prevent your Tablet PC battery from running down as quickly. For example, you can create an appropriate power saving profile, put your Tablet PC into Standby mode when it is not performing an operation, and you can limit the use of high power devices. As with all mobile, battery powered computers, there is a trade-off between performance and power savings.Table 3-1. System Power StatesSUSPEND/RESUME BUTTONWhen your Tablet PC is active, the Suspend/Resume button can be used to manually put your Tablet PC into Standby mode. Push the Suspend/Resume button when your Tablet PC is active, but not actively accessing anything, and immediately release the button. You will hear two short beeps and your system will enter Standby mode. (See figure 2-6 on page 14 for location).If your Tablet PC is suspended, pushing the Suspend/Resume button will return your Tablet PC to active operation. You can tell whether or not your system is in Standby mode by looking at the Power indicator. See “Power Indicator” on page 15. If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your Tablet PC is fully operational. If the indicator is both visible and flashing, your Tablet PC is in Standby mode. If the indicator is not visible at all, the power is off or your Tablet PC is in Hibernate mode (See Hibernate Mode)STANDBY MODEStandby mode in Windows saves the contents of your Tablet PC’s system memory during periods of inactivity by maintaining power to critical parts. This mode will turn off the CPU, the display, the hard drive, and all of the other internal components except those necessary to maintain system memory and allow for restarting. Your Tablet PC can be put in Standby mode by:■Pressing the Suspend/Resume button when your system is turned on.■Selecting Standby from the Windows Shut Down menu.■Timing out from lack of activity.■Allowing the battery to reach the Dead BatteryWarning condition.■Closing the system cover.Your Tablet PC’s system memory typically stores the file(s) on which you are working, open application(s) information, and any other data required to support the operation(s) in progress. When you resume operation Power Mode System Activity Events causing system to enter mode stateFully On Mode System is running. CPU, system bus, and all other interfaces operate at full speed.■From Standby mode: System operation resumed (Suspend/Resume button pressed, resume on modem ring, resume on time).■From Hibernation mode: Suspend/Resume button pressed.■From Off mode: Suspend/Resume button pressed.Standby Mode(Suspend-to-RAM)Resume system logic remains powered and RAM remains powered to maintain active data.

37Getting Startedfrom Standby mode, your Tablet PC will return to the point where it left off. To resume operation, you must use the Suspend/Resume button to resume operation, and there must be an adequate power source available, or your Tablet PC will not resume.HIBERNATE MODEThe Hibernate mode saves the contents of yourTablet PC’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the Suspend/Resume mode. Your Tablet PC is pre-configured to perform this function. The Hibernate mode can also be configured through the system BIOS to run in other ways depending on what you need to accomplish. See “BIOS Setup Utility” on page 34.Using Hibernate ModeHibernate default setting is enabled for Windows XP. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these easy steps:1. From the Start menu, select Settings, and then select Control Panel -> Power Options.2. Select Hibernation, and then select the box to enable or disable this feature.To use Hibernate mode with your system:1. Click on the Start button, click Shut Down.2. Select Hibernate option from the “What do you want the computer to do” list.DISPLAY TIMEOUT The Video Timeout is one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the display if there is no keyboard or pointer activity for the user selected timeout period. Any keyboard or pointer activity will cause the display to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows Power Management.HARD DISK TIMEOUTThe Hard Disk Timeout is another one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the hard drive if there is no hard drive activity for the user selected timeout period. Any attempt to access the hard drive will cause it to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows.WINDOWS POWER MANAGEMENT The Power Options icon located in the Windows Control Panel allows you to configure some of the power management settings. For example, you can use the Power Options to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you are running the Tablet PC on battery power or one of the adapters. RESTARTING THE SYSTEMIf your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure. 1. Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.2. Select the Restart option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.3. Click OK. Your Tablet PC will shut down and reboot.If you are running your Tablet PC on battery power, be aware that the battery continues to discharge while your Tablet PC is in Standby mode, though not as fast as when fully operational. ■Standby or Hibernate modes should not be used with certain PC Cards. Check your PC Card documentation for more information.■Disabling the Suspend/Resume button prevents it from being used to put your Tablet PC in Standby or Hibernate mode. The resume function of the button cannot be disabled.■If your Tablet PC is actively accessing information when you enter Standby or Hibernate mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Standby mode or the memory is transferred to the hard drive during Hibernate mode.■When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Save-to-Disk mode cannot return to the exact state prior to suspension, because all peripheral devices will be re-initialized when the system restarts.■The main advantage of using Hibernate mode is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is very impor-tant if you will be leaving your Tablet PC in a suspended state for a prolonged period of time. The drawback of using Hibernate mode is that it lengthens the power down and power up sequences and resets peripheral devices.T Series.book Page 37 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

41User-Installable FeaturesLithium ion BatteryYour LifeBook T Series Tablet PC has a Lithium ion battery that provides power for operating your Tablet PC when no external power source is available. The battery is durable and long lasting, but should not be exposed to extreme temperatures, high voltages, chemi-cals or other hazards.The Lithium ion battery operating time may become shorter if it is used under the following conditions:■When used at temperatures lower than 41° F (5° C) or higher than 95° F (35° C). Extreme temperatures not only reduce charging efficiency, but can also cause battery deterioration. The Charging icon on the Status Indicator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range. See “Battery Charging Indicator” on page 16.■When using a high current device such as a modem, CD-ROM drive, or hard drive, using the AC adapter will conserve your battery life.RECHARGING THE BATTERYIf you want to know the condition of the Lithium ion battery, check the Battery Level indicator located on the Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.The Lithium ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter or Auto/Airline adapter. To recharge the battery make sure the battery that needs to be charged is installed in your Tablet PC and connect the AC or Auto/Airline adapter.There is no memory effect on the Lithium ion battery, therefore you do not need to discharge the battery completely before recharging. The charge times will be longer if your Tablet PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your Tablet PC into Standby mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. See “Power Management” on page 36.Low Battery StateWhen the battery is running low, your Tablet PC will beep every 15 seconds and the Battery Level indicator will flash. If you do not respond to the low battery alarm, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens there will be a multiple beep alarm and the Battery Level indicator will show a dead battery. Your Tablet PC will then go into Standby mode to try and protect your data for as long as possible. There is no guarantee that your data will not be lost once the Tablet PC reaches this point.■Do not leave a faulty battery in your Tablet PC. It may damage your AC adapter, optional Auto/Airline adapter, another battery or your Tablet PC itself. It may also prevent operation of your Tablet PC by draining all available cur-rent into the bad battery.■Under federal, state, or local law it may be illegal to dispose of batteries by putting them in the trash. Please take care of our environment and dispose of batteries properly. Check with your local government authority for details regarding recycling or disposing of old batteries. If you cannot find this infor-mation elsewhere, contact your support representative at 1-800-8Fujitsu.Actual battery life will vary based on screen brightness, applications, features, power management settings, battery condition and other customer preferences.CD-ROM drive or hard drive usage may also have a significant impact on battery life. The battery charging capacity is reduced as the battery ages. If your battery is running low quickly, you should replace it with a new one.Make sure that the Battery Charging indicator and the percentage charge is shown inside the Battery Level icon on the Status Indicator Panel.Using heavy current devices such as a modem or frequent CD-ROM and PCMCIA powered external device accesses may prevent charging completely.■You may not be able to hear the alarm if the volume control is set too low or is turned off by the hardware or software. However, you will be able to see the Battery Level indicator flash. Once the low battery alarm occurs you must save all your data and put your Tablet PC into Standby mode until you can provide a new power source. You should provide a charged battery or AC or Auto/Airline Adapter as soon as possible. ■When you are in Standby mode there must always be at least one power source active. If you remove all power sources while your Tablet PC is in Standby mode, any data that has not been saved to the hard drive will be lost.T Series.book Page 41 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM
42LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section FourDead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indi-cator just like the normal Standby mode. Once your Tablet PC goes into Dead Battery Suspend mode youwill be unable to resume operation until you providea source of power either from an adapter, or a charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will need to press the Suspend/Resume button to resume operation. In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data can be maintained for some time, but if a power source is not provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data that was not stored. Once you provide power, you can continue to use your Tablet PC while an adapter is charging the battery.Shorted BatteriesThe Status Indicator panel uses a symbol inside the battery outline of the Battery Level indicator to display the operating level available in that battery. (See figure on page 15) If this display shows a Shorted Battery, it means that the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it does not damage any other parts of your Tablet PC.REPLACING THE BATTERY Your LifeBook T Series Tablet PC comes with one battery pack; you might want to consider purchasing a spare. By keeping a spare battery fully charged, you can immediately swap with one that is not charged. There are two ways to swap batteries: cold-swapping and warm-swapping. Cold-swapping means swapping batteries when the system has been powered down; warm-swapping is performed when the system is in Standby mode. Cold-swapping batteriesTo cold-swap batteries in your battery compartment, follow these easy steps: (Figure 4-1)1. Have a charged battery ready to install.2. Shut down your tablet and disconnect the AC adapter.3. Press the battery release latches to open the compartment.4. Remove the battery from the compartment.5. Slide the new battery into the compartment.6. Close the compartment and the battery release latches will click into place.7. Plug in the AC adapter and turn the power on. Figure 4-1.
