Touchpad Pointing Device
Certain E8000 LifeBook notebooks are
equipped with an optional “Quick Point”
button for moving the cursor. For more
information about Quick Point, see
“Optional Quick Point Feature” on
page 16.
The Touchpad pointing device comes built into your
Fujitsu LifeBook notebook. It is used to control the
movement of the pointer to select items on your display
panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, a
left and right button, and a scrolling 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 mouse buttons. The actual
functionality of the buttons may vary depending on the
application that is being used. The scrolling button
allows you to navigate quickly through pages, without
having to use the scroll bars. (Figure 2-11)
An external mouse can be connected to
either the USB port on your LifeBook notebook or the USB or PS/2 ports on the
optional port replicator, and used simultaneously with the Touchpad. However, if
you boot the system with an external
mouse connected the Touchpad will be
disabled or enabled depending on the
specifications in your BIOS settings. (See
CLICKING
Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To leftclick, 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 mouse cursor to the item you
wish to select, press the right button once, and then
immediately release it. You also have the option to
perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on the
Touchpad once. (Figure 2-12)
Figure 2-12 Clicking
DOUBLE-CLICKING
Double-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, press
the left button twice, and then immediately release it.
You also have the option to perform the double-click
operation by tapping lightly on the Touchpad twice.

Figure 2-14 Dragging
The optional Quick Point device consists of a cursor
control button at the lower center of the keyboard. It is
roughly the same size and shape as a pencil eraser. The
cursor control works the same way a mouse ball does,
and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires
light pressure to move; the more pressure you use, the
faster the cursor will move.
When used with the Quick Point button, the middle
Touchpad button allows you to scroll up and down a
screen.

Reinstalling the Security/Application Panel
To reinstall supervisor or user security application, you
will need your Drivers and Applications CD. The
Utilities/Security Application Panel folder contains two
separate folders: Supervisor and User. The setup files for
supervisor and user security applications are contained
in those folders.
1. Go to the Utilities/Security Application Pane/
Supervisor folder on the CD and double-click the
setups.exe file. The Installing Security Panel Application window will appear. Follow the instructions
on the screen.
2. Go to the Utilities/Security Application Panel/User
folder on the CD and double-click the setup.exe file.
The Installing Security Panel Application window
will appear. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Supervisor and user passwords can be set via Windows
software using the FJSECS.exe and FJSECU.exe files,
respectively. FJSECU.exe for the user password cannot
run without first setting a supervisor password. You
need to run FJSECS.exe first to set the supervisor password. Follow instructions under Setting Passwords on
page 20.
