TERTIARY FUNCTIONS OF APPLICATION AND NAVIGATION BUTTONS
While you are booting up your system, the Application
Buttons and Navigation buttons can be used for entering
and navigating through the Basic Input-Output System
(BIOS), and for invoking the Advanced Options Menu,
where you can enter different modes (such as Safe
Mode).
The BIOS is a program and a set of parameters that are
stored in ROM, which tests and operates your Tablet PC
from when you turn it on until it loads your installed
operating system from disk. Information from the BIOS
is transferred to the operating system to provide it with
information on the configuration and status of the hard-
ware.
The system is booting up while the Fujitsu logo is
displayed immediately after turning on the system. The
table below indicates how the buttons act while the
system is booting up and while you are in the BIOS.
Table 1-5. Tertiary Functions of Application and Navigation Buttons
Buttons/icons Purpose (when pressed while the system is booting up)
Ctl-Alt-Del
Button
Pressing the Ctl-Alt-Del button while the system is booting up takes you into BIOS setup. This is the
same as if you had tapped [F2] on a keyboard.
EMail Button
Pressing the EMail button while the system is booting up opens the Boot Options menu. This is the
same as if you had tapped [F12] on a keyboard.
Orientation
Button
Pressing the Orientation button while the BIOS setup screen is open causes the selected item (if
applicable) to change to the next item. Pressing this is the same as tapping the spacebar on a
keyboard.
Escape Button
Pressing the Esc button while the BIOS is open acts to escape from the BIOS. This is the same as if
you had tapped [Esc] on a keyboard.
Enter Button
Pressing the Ent button while the BIOS is open acts the same as the [Ent] button on a keyboard.
Function Button
Pressing the Fn button while the system is displaying the operating system boot menu, opens the
Advanced Operating System Options menu. This menu allows you to enter different operating
system modes (such as Safe Mode). Pressing this button is the same as if you had tapped [F8] on a
keyboard.
Pressing the top half of the upper navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open causes the
cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move up. This is the same as if you had tapped Arrow Up on a
keyboard. This feature is also functional in the operating system boot menu.
Pressing the bottom half of the upper navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open causes
the cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move down. This is the same as if you had tapped Arrow Down
on a keyboard. This feature is also functional in the operating system boot menu.
Pressing the top half of the lower navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open causes the
cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move right. This is the same as if you had tapped Arrow Right on a

SECURITY FUNCTIONS OF APPLICATION BUTTONS
Five buttons are used when implementing security functions. Four of the buttons are used to enter the password, and
the fifth is used as an Enter button. Instructions for using the security feature follow the table.
Table 1-6. Security Functions of Application Buttons
SETTING UP THE SECURITY PANEL
When you receive your Tablet PC, the security panel
application is pre-installed without any passwords. The
following sections provide detailed information on your

Enter Button
After entering the button strokes, push this button to
enter the password into the Tablet PC. (Figure 1-6)
PASSWORDS
The user and supervisor password may be set on this
Tablet PC. A supervisor password is typically the same
for all Tablet PC’s and notebooks in a work group, office,
or company to allow for system management. Individual
computers in a group environment should not use a
common password. A password consists of one to five
button strokes plus the enter button. A valid stroke
consists of pushing one or up to four buttons simulta-
neously.
The following are valid button strokes:
■Pushing [4] by itself
■Pushing [2] and [3] at the same time
■Pushing [1], [2], and [4] at the same time
■Pushing [1], [2], [3], and [4] at the same time
The following are valid passwords. The numbers within
braces ({ }) are button strokes using more than one
button.
■{[2]+[3]}, [1], [Enter]
■[4], [enter]
■{[1]+[3]}, {[2]+[3]+[4]}, [1], [4], [2], [Enter]
Setting Passwords
When shipped from the factory, no passwords are set.
You have a choice of having no password or setting a
supervisor and user password. You must set the super-
visor password before the user password.

Using Your Stylistic ST5000
Using the Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC
This chapter covers the fundamental concepts, basic
system operation and use, and system functions of the
Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC. You should familiarize
yourself with this information before you attempt to
operate the system.
SYSTEM STATES
Before you begin using the Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet
PC, review the different system states (or modes) that the
system can use. Being familiar with these states will help
you determine whether it is appropriate to turn on,
resume, suspend, hibernate or shut down the system
when you begin or end a session. System behavior for
each system state is described briefly in the following,
with each system state listed in decreasing order of power
usage:
•On state: The system is running and the display
screen is on.
•Idle state: Some system functions are regulated or
turned off to conserve power. The display screen may
be turned off. The system returns to the On state
when pen activity or other input is detected.
•Suspend-to-RAM mode (S3): System operation is
suspended. Most system functions are turned off to
conserve power. Power to memory is on, maintaining
data in programs that were running before system
operation was suspended. The system does not
respond to the pen or other input when in Suspend-
to-RAM mode. Refer to the “Resuming System
Operation” section later in this chapter for
information on returning the system to the On state.
•Hibernate mode (Save-to-Disk) (S4): System
operation is suspended. All system functions are
turned off to conserve power. Active data in programs
that were running before suspending system
operation is stored on the hard disk drive. The system
does not respond to the pen or other input. Refer to
the “Resuming System Operation” section later in this
chapter for information on returning the system to
the On state.
•Off state: All system functions are turned off to
conserve power. The system does not respond to the
pen or other input. The system boots at the next
system power-on.
Your system may be configured to enter some of these
states automatically after a period of inactivity to
conserve battery power.
When you use the Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC, you
can change the current system state in a number of ways,
depending on the system’s current state. To determine the
current system state, observe the Power icon in the Status
display. Table 2-1 on page 22 gives the different system
states represented by the Power icon and describes how
you can change the system state from the current state.
Prior to using your system, be sure to fully
charge the battery if you plan to run on
battery power. Failure to do so may result
in erratic performance.
The system consumes the same amount of
power whether it is in Hibernate (Save-to-
Disk) mode or the Off state.

Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC User’s Guide – Section Two
Table 2-1 Changing System States
*Information in Table 2-1 on page 22 is supplied to help you understand which system states your system can enter from
the current system state. Refer to the procedures on starting the system, shutting down the system, suspending system
operation, and resuming system operation given later in this chapter.
†Your system may be configured to use either Suspend-to-RAM mode or Hibernate mode.
POWERING UP THE TABLET PC
Follow the procedure below to start the Stylistic ST5000
Series Tablet PC. Before you begin, confirm that the
system is in the Off state. To do so, observe the Status
display. If the Power icon is not visible in the Status
display, the system is in Off state or in Hibernate (Save-
to-Disk) mode and it is safe to perform this procedure. If
the Power icon is visible (either blinking or on continu-
ously), do not perform this procedure. See “System
States” earlier in this chapter for details on modes repre-
sented by the Power icon.
1. Ensure that the battery in your Tablet PC is
sufficiently charged, or connect an external power
source such as the AC adapter or auto adapter to
your Tablet PC.
2. Press the Power On/Suspend/Resume button to start
the system.
After performing initialization, the system starts the
operating system installed on the hard disk drive. Once
the operating system is running, you can use the system.
SHUTTING DOWN THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to shut down and turn off your
system:
1. If system operation has been suspended, resume
system operation. See “Resuming System Opera-
tion” later in this chapter for details.
2. Save your work and close all running programs.
3. Choose Shut Down from the Windows Start menu.
4. Carry out the Shut Down command.
The system is now in the Off state.
SUSPENDING SYSTEM OPERATION
The Tablet PC allows you to suspend the system opera-
tion without closing programs or exiting the operating
system. Use this feature to conserve battery power when
a system shutdown is not practical or when the battery
needs to be changed.

to your hard disk.)
2. The Power icon either flashes (Suspend-to-RAM) or
is not displayed (Hibernate) when system operation
is suspended, depending on how your system is
configured. At this point, programs that were
running are stopped, active data is saved, and the
system enters one of two different low-power states,
or suspend modes, as explained in the following
paragraphs.
3. Observe the Power icon in the Status display to deter-
mine which suspend mode your system is using.
■Power icon is blinking: Suspend-to-RAM mode.
In this mode, active data is saved by maintaining power
to RAM while most other system components are
powered off. The Battery Gauge icon in the Status
display indicates the battery charge level.
■Power icon is not displayed: Hibernate (Save-to-Disk)
mode.
In this mode, active data is stored on the hard disk
drive and power usage is reduced to the same level used
in the Off state. When the system is in Hibernate mode,
the Battery Gauge icon is not visible in the Status
display. In this mode, there is no danger of losing data
if battery power is lost.
If you have successfully performed this procedure,
system operation is now suspended. Refer to
“Resuming System Operation” later in this chapter to
resume system operation. Also, note the following with
regard to suspending system operation:
■You can remove the battery while the system is in
Suspend-to-RAM or Hibernate modes in order to
install a charged battery. To prevent losing unsaved
data, wait until system operation has suspended before
you remove the battery. Note that after you remove the
battery, you have approximately five minutes to replace
it with a new battery or to plug in a power supply
before the bridge battery is depleted.
■Your system may be configured to suspend operation
automatically after a period of inactivity.
■Your system may be configured to enter Hibernate
mode automatically after a period of time in Suspend-
to-RAM mode.
■The system uses a small amount of battery power when
in Suspend-to-RAM mode. Eventually, the battery will
become fully discharged.
■If the battery charge drops to a Low-Battery Warning
level while the system is running, the system will beep
periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation,
shut down the system, or attach an external power
source, such as the AC adapter, to the Tablet PC.
■If the battery charge drops to a Critically Low level
while the system is running, the system is forced into a
Suspend-to-RAM or Hibernate mode. If this occurs,
you must either install a charged battery, or connect an
external power source such as the AC adapter before
you can resume system operation. (If the charge drops
to a Critically Low level while the system is in Suspend-
to-RAM mode, the system stays in that mode until
power is restored or totally dissipated.)
■Suspending system operation interrupts data commu-
nications; therefore, some programs may block the
system from suspending to prevent an interruption.
■The suspend action of the Suspend/Resume button
may be disabled to prevent accidental interruption. If
this is the case, pressing the Suspend/Resume button
will not suspend system operation as described here.
(In this case, suspend mode can only be achieved using
the system software). Contact your local help desk or
reseller if your system configuration is not suitable.
■If your system is equipped with a PC Card that allows
you to connect to a wired or wireless network, you may
be logged off the network after a period of inactivity
while system operation is suspended. Contact your
network administrator or help desk, or call Fujitsu
Service and Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-
5487) for details on your network log-off parameters.
If you are replacing the battery, wait until
system operation is suspended and the
power icon is flashing before you remove
the battery. Failure to do so could result in
loss of your unsaved data. (Note that if the
Resume On LAN function is enabled in the
BIOS setup, you should not remove the
battery unless the system is shut down.
When Resume ON LAN is enabled, the
bridge battery is disabled in order to
optimize battery life.) If you will not be using the system for an
extended period, shut down the system
rather than using Suspend-to-RAM mode.

RESUMING SYSTEM OPERATION
To resume operation from either Suspend-to-RAM or
Hibernate modes, press the Suspend/Resume button.
■From Suspend-to-RAM mode
Status lights indicate that the system state is changing.
It may take up to a minute before the system returns to
the On state and system operation resumes. Note that
the display turns on shortly before the pen becomes
active due to the power-up sequences observed by the
system.
■From Hibernate (Save-to-Disk) mode
Active data is read from the hard disk drive, and the
system returns to the On state after a short time.
Use the system as you normally would once system oper-
ation resumes.
All programs resume at the point where execution
stopped when system operation was suspended.
ADJUSTING THE DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS
There are four ways to adjust your display’s brightness:
■Click the Tablet icon in the system tray at the bottom
right of the screen. (When the cursor is on top of the
icon, a message stating “Change tablet and pen set-
tings” is displayed.) When the Tablet and Pen Settings
window appears, select the Display tab, and move the
Screen Brightness slider to change the brightness.
■Click Start -> Control Panel -> Tablet and Pen Set-
tings. Select the Display tab, and move the Screen
Brightness slider to change the brightness.
■Click the Fujitsu Menu icon in the system tray at the
bottom right of the screen. (When the cursor is on top
of the icon, a message stating “Fujitsu Menu...” is dis-
played.) Select Tablet and Pen Settings and select the
Display tab. Move the Screen Brightness slider to
change the brightness.
■Press the Fn key twice to invoke the Fujitsu menu and
select Tablet and Pen Settings.
USING THE PEN
You can use the Stylistic ST5000 Series pen to generate
and create electronic “ink”, to select items, and to navi-
gate 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 2-1. Stylistic ST5000 Series Pen
The screen reacts when the pen tip is approximately 1/8
inch (3-5mm) from the screen. The pen has three
switches: a tip switch and a barrel button toggle switch
with switches at both ends. When activated, the tip
switch corresponds to the left mouse button, and the
front toggle (closest to the pen tip) barrel button switch,
when used in combination with the tip switch, corre-
sponds to the right mouse button. The rear toggle of the
barrel button switch acts as an electronic ink “eraser”
when it is so configured in the Control Panel. Note that
the erasing feature is application-dependent.
Note that power to several system
components must be restored before
system operation resumes. Allow sufficient
time for system operation to resume
before attempting to use the system. If
your system uses Hibernate mode, it will
take longer to resume operation as
compared to using Suspend-to-RAM
mode. Time is needed to read data from
the hard disk drive.
Depending upon whether you are running
your system on battery or AC power, the
default screen brightness settings will be
different. The screen brightness default for
running on battery is lower than that on
AC power in order to optimize battery life.
The Stylistic ST5000 pen is a sophisticated,
high-quality electronic instrument that can
be damaged if used improperly. Treat the
pen as you would any precision device.
The following list contains guidelines for
proper pen handling:
• 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
and for attaching a pen tether.
• 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. To avoid damage, the pen
should be stored in the pen holder
when not in use.

Using Your Stylistic ST5000
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 - 5mm) 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, tap twice on the object
quickly.
•To move, or “drag”, an object on the screen, place the
pen tip directly over the object, then as you hold the
pen tip against the screen, move the pen.
CALIBRATING THE PEN
For information about calibrating your pen, refer to the
literature that came with the operating system.
INSTALLING A PEN TETHER
To prevent dropping or losing your pen, you should
attach it to your system using the pen tether that is
included with the system.
To attach the pen tether to your Tablet PC, perform the
following steps:
1. Attach the end of the pen tether with the smaller loop
to your pen. Do do so, push the end of the tether
through the hole in the pen, then thread the opposite
end of the tether through the loop. (See Figure 2-2.)
Figure 2-2. Installing a Pen Tether
2. Attach the end of the pen tether with the larger loop
to the attachment point on your pen tablet. To do so,
insert the end of the pen tether through the attach-
ment point, then feed the pen through the large loop
in the tether.
REPLACING THE PEN TIP
With 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 2-3. Tip Removal Tool
To remove the tip, position the tip in the gap between the
two ends of the tool. 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.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
The Stylistic ST5000 Series battery can be charged while
it is installed in the Tablet PC.
To do s o :
1. Connect a DC power source, such as the AC adapter,
to the DC input connector on the Tablet PC. The DC
Input icon appears in the Status display. If the battery
• Ensure that a screen protector is installed
on the Tablet PC screen before you use
the pen. The warranty does not cover a
scratched screen.
•Use only the pen provided with your
Tablet PC. Do not use substitutes that
were not designed for the Stylistic
ST5000 Series Tablet PC.

charge is below 90%, the battery begins charging
and the Charging icon appears in the Status display.
If the battery charge is 90% or higher when you
connect DC power, the battery will not charge,
preventing battery overcharging.
2. Look at the Battery Gauge icon in the Status display
to determine the percent of charge in the battery. See
“Status Display” in Chapter 1 of this manual for a
description of the Battery Gauge icon.
As long as DC power remains connected to the Tablet PC,
the charging process continues until the battery charge
reaches 100%.
Also note the following with respect to charging the
battery:
• You can use the system, suspend system operation, or
shut down and turn off the system without
interrupting the charging process; however, using the
system while the battery is charging will cause the
battery to charge at a slower rate.
• As noted in the procedure above, the system will not
begin charging the battery if the battery charge level
is 90% or higher when the system is initially
connected to external DC power. (This prevents the
battery from being overcharged.)
• The battery uses Lithium ion battery cells which have
no “memory effect.” You do not need to discharge
the battery before you begin charging.
REMOVING AND INSTALLING THE BATTERY
The battery can be removed from the Tablet PC and
swapped with a charged battery. The battery can then be
charged in an external charger if one is available. To
remove the battery from the Tablet PC:
1. Choose one of the following:
• If a charged battery is available, you can suspend
system operation. A built-in “bridge” battery will
maintain the system in Suspend-to-RAM mode for
about 5 minutes while the battery is removed; this
allows time for replacement with a charged battery.
• If a charged battery is not available, save your work
and close all running programs, then shut down
the system or Hibernate (Save-to-Disk).
• Plug in an external DC power source.
2. Slide the battery release latch in the direction
indicated. (See Figure 2-4 on page 26 for location).
3. Pull the battery away from the system, as shown in
the illustration and remove the battery from the
Tablet PC.
If you are using an external battery charger, refer to the
instructions provided with the battery charger.
To install the battery:
1. Orient the battery with the slides in the empty
battery tray. Slide the battery into the tray and press
it firmly until it is seated. When it is properly seated,
the battery release latch should return to position
and lock the battery.
Figure 2-4. Removing the Battery
Once the battery is installed, you can resume system
operation or start and use your system normally.
TIPS FOR CONSERVING BATTERY POWER
You can extend the charge life of your battery by
conserving battery power. (Your results may vary
depending on your application and how the system is
configured.) Here are some suggestions to help you
conserve battery power:
• Use an external power source such as the AC adapter
whenever the system is docked.
• Suspend system operation if you know that you
won’t be using the system for a while.
• Shut down the system if you won’t be using the
system for an extended period of time.
• Switch the wireless LAN switch Off when wireless
LAN functionality in not needed (applicable only for
systems with optional wireless LAN).
• Use power management (available on the desktop) to
help you conserve power automatically.
• Reduce the brightness of the LCD.
• Battery life is dependent upon the operating system,
power settings, and applications in use.
Under Federal, state, or local law, it may
be illegal to dispose of batteries by putting
them in the trash. Be sure to dispose of
batteries in accordance with local
government regulations.

Using Your Stylistic ST5000
Operation of the Bridge Battery
When installed in the Tablet PC, the battery provides
power to some system components—even when the
system is in the Off state. When the battery is removed,
power is supplied to these components by a “bridge”
battery that is built into the Tablet PC.
The bridge battery is not designed for long-term opera-
tion. To maintain the bridge battery properly, observe the
following measures:
• To prevent draining the bridge battery, always store
the system with a charged battery installed.
• If the bridge battery becomes drained, it takes
approximately 8 hours for it to be fully recharged.
• The bridge battery charges when the AC Adapter is
connected and the system is in On or Off states or
Suspend mode. It charges from the battery only when
the system is in the On state.
MODEM CONNECTION
The Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC is designed to
accept a standard RJ-11 telephone plug. Connect the plug
to the modem jack located on the left-hand side of the
Tablet PC (See Figure 1-5 on page 6 for location). The tele-
phone plug can be inserted whether or not the Tablet PC
has power applied.
If you need assistance configuring the Stylistic ST5000
Series Tablet PC modem or LAN, contact your local help
desk or reseller.
MEMORY STICK/SD CARD SLOT
Your Tablet PC supports Memory Stick and SD flash
memory cards on which you can store and transfer data
to and from a variety of digital devices. These cards use
flash memory architecture, which means they don’t need
a power source to retain data.
Memory Stick is a flash memory technology developed by
Sony Electronics. Memory Stick allows you to record,
transfer and share digital content, such as digital pictures,
movies, music, voice, and computer data and applica-
tions.
Secure Digital (SD) Cards are very similar to Memory
Sticks, but they are shorter. Like the Memory Stick, SD
Cards allow portable storage among a variety of devices,
such as cell phones, GPS systems, digital cameras, and
PDAs. SD Cards transfer data quickly, with low battery
consumption. Like the memory stick, it uses flash
memory architecture.
Figure 2-5. Memory Stick and Secure Digital Card
Inserting Memory Stick/SD Cards
Memory Sticks and SD Cards are inserted in the Memory
Stick/SD Card slot (Figure 1-4). To insert a Memory Stick
or SD Card, follow these steps:
1. See your Memory Stick or SD Card manual for
instructions on the insertion of your card. Some
cards may require that your system is off while
inserting them.
2. Make sure there is no card currently in the slot. If
there is, see Removing a Memory Stick/SD Card.
3. Insert your card into the slot with the product label
facing up.
4. Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in
the connector.
• The bridge battery function is disabled if
Wake On LAN is enabled in the BIOS.
• The system arrives with the bridge
battery in a discharged state. Be sure to
charge it sufficiently before relying upon
it to support the system in the event of
battery removal.
The internal 56 Kbps LAN/modem module
installed in the Stylistic ST5000 Series
Tablet PC has actual maximum transfer
rates of 53 Kbps (receive), 33.6 Kbps
(send), and 14.4 Kbps (fax). Download
rates are limited to 53 Kbps in the United
States due to FCC restrictions.
Note that MagicGate functions are not
supported by this slot.
■Inserting or removing a Memory Stick
or SD Card during your system’s shut-
down or bootup process may damage
the card and/or your computer.
■Do not insert a card into a slot if there is
water or any other substance on the card
as you may permanently damage the
card, your Tablet PC, or both.

Care and Maintenance
This chapter gives you pointers on how to care for and
maintain your Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC.
CARING FOR YOUR TABLET PC
Please note the following information regarding proper
treatment of your Tablet PC:
■Your Tablet PC is a durable but sensitive electronic device.
Treat it with respect and care.
■Make a habit of transporting the system in a suitable car-
rying case.
■Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Always
follow installation and operation instructions closely.
■If you accidentally spill liquid on your Tablet PC:
1. Turn it off.
2. Position it so that the liquid can run out.
3. Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed.
4. If your Tablet PC will not boot up after it has dried
out, call your support representative.
■Do not use your Tablet PC in a wet environment (near a
bathtub, swimming pool).
■Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are
approved for your system.
■Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other environmental
hazards.
■Do not expose your Tablet PC to direct sunlight for long
periods of time as excessive temperatures may damage
your system.
■Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer.
■Do not carry your system in a bag or briefcase while it is
running; doing so could result in overheating or hard disk
drive problems.
■If you are carrying your system in a briefcase, or any other
carrying case, make sure that there are no objects in the
case pressing on the display.
■Do not drop your Tablet PC or touch the screen with any
sharp objects.
PROTECTING THE DISPLAY SCREEN
The Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC is designed to
provide you with years of service. Using a screen
protector will help ensure the screen remains as clear as
possible. When installed, the screen protector becomes a
durable, replaceable writing surface that protects the
display screen from abrasion.
To obtain additional screen protectors, use Fujitsu part
number FPCSP08AP (6-pack) when ordering. Additional
information about installation is included with the
screen protectors.
To install a new screen protector on your Tablet PC:
1. If a screen protector is already installed on the display
screen, remove it before installing the new screen
protector.
The screen protector is held onto the display screen
surface by a thin strip of adhesive around the edges. A
notch in one corner of the screen protector allows
you to slide your fingernail under the screen
protector for easy removal.
2. Clean the display by wiping the screen gently using a
soft cotton cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol.
Ensure that all residue has been removed from the
screen before applying a new screen protector.
Remove the protective coating from the adhesive side
of the screen protector first, as shown in Figure 3-1.
.
Figure 3-1. Removing the Protective Sheet
3. Apply the screen protector to the display screen
surface. When doing so, orient the screen protector
with the adhesive side of the screen protector facing
the display screen and the notched corner of the
screen protector oriented as shown in Figure 3-2.
During normal use of the Tablet PC, small
particles from the environment can become
embedded in the pen tip and scratch the
screen. To prevent scratching the screen,
ensure that a screen protector is installed
before using your Tablet PC. The warranty
does not cover a scratched screen.
■The Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC is
not waterproof. Do not pour liquids on
the system or wash it with a heavily
soaked cloth.
■Do not place items on the top of the dis-
play, or damage may occur.

Figure 3-2. Installing the screen protector
4. Apply pressure to the screen protector with your
finger using a continuous wiping motion along the
edges. The adhesive sets completely within 48 hours.
To ensure a good seal between the screen protector
and the display, do not lift the screen protector from
the display once it has been applied.
5. Remove the protective plastic cover from the face of
the screen protector, as shown in Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3. Removing the protective cover
6. Clean any residue left behind by the protective
coating from the exposed surface of the screen
protector by wiping gently with a soft cotton cloth
dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Wipe the screen
protector with a soft dry cloth to remove any low-
tack adhesive; this will help prevent the pen tip from
squeaking.
STORING THE TABLET PC
Store the Stylistic ST5000 Series Tablet PC in the Off
state with a fully charged battery installed. You can store
the Tablet PC in the Off state for about 30 days with a
fully charged battery installed. After this period, the
battery should be recharged or replaced with a charged
battery.
If you intend to store the Tablet PC for a longer period of
time, the small battery that maintains system time may
need to be replaced. Replacement of the clock battery
should only be performed by authorized technicians.
AVOIDING OVERHEATING
The Tablet PC monitors its internal temperature. As the
internal temperature approaches the tolerable limits of
heat-sensitive components, system functions are auto-
matically limited or turned off to prevent damage.
To protect your notebook from damage and to optimize
performance, keep all air all vents unobstructed,clean,
and clear of debris. This may require periodic cleaning,
depending upon the system environment.
Do not operate the notebook in areas where the air vents
can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or on soft
surfaces like a bed or cushion.
CLEANING THE DISPLAY SCREEN
To clean the Tablet PC display screen, wipe the screen
surface gently using a soft cotton cloth slightly damp-
ened with water or isopropyl alcohol.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Solutions to some common problems are described in
the following sections. If you are experiencing a problem
with your Tablet PC that you cannot solve by taking the
actions described, contact your local help desk or
reseller, or call Fujitsu Service and Support at 1-800-
8Fujitsu (1-800-838-5487) for further assistance.
System Will Not Resume Operation
If the system will not resume operation after system
operation has been suspended, check the following:
• The battery may either be defective, or discharged to
a critically low level. When the battery reaches a
critically low level, the system is forced into Suspend-
to-RAM mode to avoid a total system power failure.
To correct this problem, either connect an external
power supply (such as the AC adapter), or install a
charged battery in the Tablet PC.
• The system may be at the critical thermal limit. To
avoid damage to heat-sensitive components, the
system enters Suspend-to-RAM mode when it gets
too hot. System operation cannot be resumed until
the Tablet PC cools off to a tolerable temperature.
Move the Tablet PC to a cooler location.
Do not expose your Tablet PC to direct

Care and Maintenance
Display Screen Blank or Difficult to Read
If the display screen on your Tablet PC appears blank or
is unreadable, confirm that the system is running (the
Power icon is displayed continuously on the Status
display), and check the following:
• The system brightness may be set too low, causing the
screen to appear too dark. To change system
brightness, press the Fn button twice to open the
Fujitsu menu. Brightness can be adjusted from the
menu.
• The video timeout may have expired. Tap on the
display screen to reactivate the display. Note that this
is a normal, power-saving feature.
Cursor Is Not Tracking Pen
If the cursor on the screen appears to be misaligned with
the pen or is not accurately tracking the pen, calibrate the
pen. See “Calibrating the Pen” on page 25 for more infor-
mation.
Infrared Data Transfer Is Not Working
If you are experiencing problems transferring data over
the system’s infrared interface, note the following:
• Can the IrDA port on the Tablet PC “see” the IrDA
port on the other device? A direct line-of-sight path
must exist between the IrDA port on the Tablet PC
and the IrDA port on the other device.
• The distance between the two devices must not be
more than 3 feet.
• The viewing angle from the IrDA port on the Tablet
PC must not be more than 15 degrees from a center
line between the IrDA port on the Tablet PC and the
IrDA port on the other device.
• The device with which you are trying to communicate
must be compliant with the IrDA Standard Revision
1.1 (or 1.0).
• It may be necessary for both computers to be using
the same network connection protocols.
Tablet PC is Not Responding to the Pen
If the Tablet PC does not respond to the pen, connect an
external keyboard to the system to see if it responds to
keyboard commands. If the system doesn’t respond to a
keyboard, the application or system may have crashed,
and it may be necessary to reboot the system. If the
system responds to a keyboard but not to a pen, contact
your local help desk or reseller, or call Fujitsu Service and
Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-5487) for further
assistance.
Speaker/Headphone Volume Too Low
If the audio volume on your Tablet PC speaker or
external headphones is too low, check the following:
• Ensure the speaker (or headphone output if using
headphones) is enabled. To do so, open the Control
Panel and double-click on the Sounds and Audio
Devices icon. Select the proper tab, and increase the
volume using the slider bar. (If you aren’t getting any
sound, uncheck the Mute box if it is checked.)
• Press the Fn button twice to open the Fujitsu menu.
Volume can be adjusted from the menu.
• Ensure the mute box in the system volume control
(accessible from the system tray) is not set.
• Ensure any volume control in your audio software is
set to an audible level.
Configuring Peripheral Interfaces
Certain peripheral devices can be disabled during the
BIOS Setup. If the peripheral interface you want to use
does not appear to be working with your peripheral
device, ensure that it is enabled in the BIOS. Contact
your local help desk or reseller, or call Fujitsu Service and
Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-5487) if you need
assistance using BIOS Setup.
RESTORING THE PRE-INSTALLED SOFTWARE
The Drivers and Applications Restore (DAR) DVD
contains sets of device drivers and Fujitsu utilities (in
specific directories) that are unique to your computer
configuration for use as documented below.
Re-Installing Individual Drivers and Applications
The Drivers and Applications CD can be used to
selectively re-install drivers and/or applications that may

RESTORING THE FACTORY IMAGE
The Restore Disc that came with your system contains
two utilities:
■The Recovery utility allows you to restore the original
contents of the C: drive.
■The Hard Disk Data Delete utility on this disc is used
to delete all data on your hard disk and prevent it from
being reused. Do not use the Hard Disk Data Delete
utility unless you are absolutely certain that you want
to erase your entire hard disk, including all partitions.
BOOT Priority Change
Before restoring an image, you must first verify that your
system is set up to boot from the DVD drive. To verify/
change the boot-up priority (rather than booting-up
from the hard drive or an external floppy disk drive),
perform the following steps:
1. Start your system and press the [F2] key when the
Fujitsu logo appears. You will enter the BIOS Setup
Utility.
2. Using the arrow keys, go to the Boot menu.
3. Arrow down to the Boot Device Priority submenu.

at the top of the list, arrow down to the drive in the
list, and press the space bar (or the + key) to move it
to the top of the list. (The system attempts to boot
from the devices in the order in which they are
listed.). Note that the BIOS for some systems will
indicate “CD-ROM Drive”, even when a DVD drive
is connected.
5. If you have an external DVD drive connected,
proceed to the next step; otherwise, proceed to
step 7.
6. If you have an external DVD drive connected:
• Select the Advanced menu in the BIOS window.
• Scroll down to the USB Features submenu and
press the Enter key to open it.
• If Legacy USB Support is disabled, press the space
bar to enable it.

the space bar to enable it.
7. Press [F10], then click on [Yes] to exit the BIOS
Setup Utility and return to the boot process.
After you have changed the boot priority, you can restore
a backup image when you are booting up.
Procedure
1. Turn on the power to your system.
2. Ensure that you have a device that can read DVDs
either installed in your system or attached exter-
nally to it.
3. Insert the Restore Disc into the drive tray.
4. Reboot your system.
5. After the system reboots, follow the instructions
that appear to either restore your system image or
erase all data from your hard disk.
The components listed are color-coded in
terms of their install status. Blue indicates
that the component can be installed. Green
indicates that the component needs to be
installed separately. Grey indicates a
component that is already installed; grey
items can be reinstalled, but prior to
installation you will receive a reminder that
the component is already installed.
The Restore Disc only restores the primary
hard disk drive. If you have an optional
second hard disk drive installed, it will not
be restored using these utilities.
• The use of this disc requires that you have
a device capable of reading DVDs
attached to your system. If you do not
have a built-in DVD player, you will need
to attach an external player. For more
information on available external devices,
visit our Web site at: us.fujitsu.com/
computers.
• This disc can only be used with the system
with which it was purchased.

FCC REGULATORY INFORMATION
Please note the following regulatory information related to the
optional wireless LAN module.
Regulatory Notes and Statements
Wireless LAN, Health and Authorization for use
Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from Wire-
less LAN devices. The energy levels of these emissions, however,
are far much less than the electromagnetic energy emissions
from wireless devices such as mobile phones. Wireless LAN
devices are safe for use by consumers because they operate
within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards
and recommendations. The use of Wireless LAN devices may
be restricted in some situations or environments, such as:
On board an airplane, or
In an explosive environment, or
In situations where the interference risk to other devices or
services is perceived or identified as harmful.
IncasesinwhichthepolicyregardinguseofWirelessLAN
devices in specific environments is not clear (e.g., airports,
hospitals, chemical/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings),
obtain authorization to use these devices prior to operating the
equipment.
Regulatory Information/Disclaimers
Installation and use of this Wireless LAN device must be in
strict accordance with the instructions included in the user
documentation provided with the product. Any changes or
modifications made to this device that are not expressly
approved by the manufacturer may void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment. The manufacturer is not responsible for
any radio or television interference caused by unauthorized
modification of this device, or the substitution or attachment
of connecting cables and equipment other than those specified
by the manufacturer. It is the responsibility of the user to
correct any interference caused by such unauthorized modifica-
tion, substitution or attachment. The manufacturer and its
authorized resellers or distributors will assume no liability for
any damage or violation of government regulations arising
from failure to comply with these guidelines.
This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
For Wireless LAN:
For operation within 5.15~5.25GHz frequency range, it is
restricted to indoor environment, and the antenna of this
device must be integral.
Federal Communications Commission statement
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause interference, and, (2) This device must
accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of this device.
FCC Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installa-
tion. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interfer-
ence will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the distance between the equipment and the
receiver.
3. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different
from the one the receiver is connected to.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.
There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices
are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being
used.WhereashighlevelsofRFcanproducehealtheffects(by
heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce
heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many
studies of low-level RF exposure have not found any biological
effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects
might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by addi-
tional research. The wireless LAN radio device has been tested and
found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)

Before Using the Wireless LAN
The Integrated Wireless LAN is a standard device on
Stylistic ST5110 Tablet PC’s, and an option on Stylistic
ST5110 Tablet PC’s. This manual describes the basic
operating procedures for the wireless LAN (referred to
as the “wireless module” in this manual) and how to set
up a wireless LAN network. Before using the wireless
module, read this manual carefully to ensure correct
operation of the device. Keep this manual in a safe place
for reference while using the wireless module.
Types of Wireless LANs Covered by this Document
This document is applicable to systems containing one
of the following two wireless modules. Most of the
procedures are identical. Sections that differ between the
two devices have been noted in the text:
Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 3945ABG Network
Atheros AR5006EXS Mini-Card Wireless
Characteristics of the Wireless Module
This wireless module is a mini-PCI card attached to a
mini-PCI slot inside the computer.
The main characteristics are as follows:
It operates in the 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical (ISM) RF band; additionally, the Atheros
wireless LAN operates in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
RF bands.
It does not require an FCC license to operate.
It uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), an
RF modulation scheme that is resistant to noise.
This wireless module is Wi-Fi compliant. The wireless
module can communicate at a maximum data rate of
54 Mbps.
The maximum communication range is approxi-
mately 80 feet (25 meters) inside a building. Please
note that the range you achieve may be shorter or
longer than 80 feet, depending on factors such as
obstructions, walls, columns, construction material,
and reflective objects.
The wireless modules support a number of industry-
standard security mechanisms, including WEP, WPA,
TKIP, and 802.1x/EAP (LEAP, TLS, PEAP, MD5).
Wireless LAN Modes Using this Wireless Module
Ad Hoc Mode (See Figure A-1)
“Ad Hoc Mode” refers to a type of wireless network that
involves connecting multiple computers without the use
of an Access Point. Network connectivity between
computers can be established using only wireless LAN
cards in a peer-to-peer fashion.
Ad Hoc networks are an easy and inexpensive method
for establishing network connectivity between multiple
computers.
In Ad Hoc mode, you can use Microsoft Network func-
tions, such as File and Print Sharing to share folders,
printers, or other peripheral devices, and exchange files
with other computers.
To use Ad Hoc Mode, you must set the same SSID and
the same encryption key for all the computers that are
connected. Communication between computers in an
Ad Hoc network will occur provided they are within
each other’s RF coverage area.

Wireless LAN User’s Guide
Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode (See Figure A-2)
Infrastructure mode refers to a wireless network in which
devices communicate with each other by first going
through an Access Point (AP). In infrastructure mode,
wireless devices can communicate with each other or can
communicate with a wired network. Most corporate
wireless LANs operate in infrastructure mode because
they require access to the wired LAN in order to use
services such as file servers or printers.
How to Handle This Wireless Module
The Integrated Wireless LAN device is already installed in
your mobile computer. Under normal circumstances, it
should not be necessary for you to remove or re-install it.
The wireless LAN has been configured to support the
operating system with which your system shipped.
FOR BETTER COMMUNICATIONS
This personal computer may not operate properly due to
the operating environment. It is highly recommended
that you observe the following precautions when using
your wireless LAN module:
■For optimum wireless communications, it recom-
mended that operation of the wireless LAN module
occur within 25 meters of the Access Point. Wireless
range is dependent on a multitude of factors including
number of obstructions, walls, type of construction
material, reflective objects, etc.
■If the computer is unable to communicate properly,
change the channel to be used or the installation loca-
tion. During the use of a microwave oven or other
equipment generating strong high-frequency energy, in
particular, the personal computer may be highly sus-
ceptible to the energy and unable to communicate
properly.
■Broadcast stations or wireless communication equip-
ment that operate in the 2.4GHz or 5GHz RF Fre-
quency band may interfere with the operation of the
wireless LAN module. Increasing of transmit power or
relocating Access Points may be necessary to combat
the effects of the interference.

Wireless LAN Glossary
Access point
A designation of wireless LAN network configurations.
It indicates a form of communication using an Access
Point. For details, refer to “access point connection” on
page 48.
Ad hoc
A designation for wireless LAN network configuration.
It indicates a form of communication limited to those
personal computers which have wireless LAN function.
For details, refer to “Ad hoc connection” on page 48.
Channel
The frequency band of wireless LAN to be used in
communications over wireless LAN or at the access
point.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
A protocol used for automatically fetching communica-
tion parameters such as IP addresses. The side which
assigns IP address is called DHCP server and the side
that is assigned it is called DHCP client.
DNS (Domain Name System)
A function that controls the correspondence of IP
addresses assigned to a computer with the name. Even
for those computers whose IP addresses are unknown, if
their names are known, it is possible to communicate
with them.
IEEE802.11a
One of the wireless LAN standards prescribed by the
802.11 committee in charge of establishing standards of
LAN technology in IEEE (Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers). It allows communications at the
maximum speed of 54 Mbps by using a 5GHz band
which can freely be used without radio communication
license.
IEEE802.11b
One of the wireless LAN standards prescribed by the
802.11 committee in charge of establishing standards of
LAN technology in IEEE (Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers). It allows communications at the
maximum speed of 11Mbps by a band of 2.4 GHz (ISM
band) which can freely be used without radio communi-
cation license.
IP address
An address used by computers for communicating in
TCP/IP environment. IP addresses have global and
private addresses. A global address is a unique address in
the world. A private address is a unique address within a
closed network.
LAN (Local Area Network)
An environment connecting computers within a rela-
tively small range, such as the same floor and building.
MAC address (Media Access Control Address)
A physical address inherent to a network card. For
Ethernet, the top three bytes are controlled/assigned as a
vendor code. The remaining three bytes comprise the
code uniquely (to avoid duplication) controlled by each
vendor. As a result, there is no Ethernet card with the
same physical address in the world. In Ethernet, the
frame transmission/reception is performed based on this
address.
MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit)
The maximum size of data which can be transmitted at
one time in networks including the Internet. In an envi-
ronment whose maximum size of data is too large to
correctly receive data, normal communications can be
restored by setting the size of MTU to a smaller value.
Network authentication
The method of authentication performed by wireless
LAN clients to connect with the access point. There are
two types: open system authentication and shared key
authentication. The type of authentication must be set
to each client and also coincide with the setting of access
point with which to communicate. Network authentica-
tion is sometimes called authentication mode.
Network key
Data that is used for encrypting data in data communi-
cation. The personal computer uses the same network
key both for data encryption and decryption, therefore,
it is necessary to set the same network key as the other
side of communication.
Network name (SSID: Service Set Identifier)
The network name is a unique identifier attached to the
WLAN packet header that acts as a password when the
client attempts to connect to a WLAN. The SSID differ-
entiates one WLAN from another so all WLAN devices
attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the
same SSID. SSID’s are transmitted in cleartext, thus
supplying no security to the WLAN.

Open system authentication
An 802.11 wireless LAN authentication method. Open
System does not exchange any key or other information,
it is a simple request by the mobile station to be authenti-
cated without verifying identity.
PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet)
A method of allowing the authentication protocol
adopted in telephone line connection (PPP) to be used
over an Ethernet.
Protocol
A procedure or rule of delivering data among computers.
Ordered data communication is allowed by making all
conditions required for communication including the
method of data transmission/reception and actions upon
communication errors into procedures.
Shared key authentication
An 802.11 wireless LAN authentication method. When a
client attempts to associate to an access point, the access
point will send a challenge to the client. The client
encrypts the challenge with the network key and sends it
back to the access point. If the access point can decrypt
the challenge, then authentication has succeeded.
SSID (Service Set Identifier)
See “Network name”
Subnet mask
TCP-IP network is controlled by being divided into
multiple smaller networks (subnets). IP address consists
of the subnet address and the address of each computer.
Subnet mask defines how many bits of IP address
comprise the subnet address. The same value shall be set
among computers communicating with each other.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol)
A standard protocol of the Internet.
Wi-Fi
Short for “Wireless Fidelity”. A term meant to be used
generically when referring to any type of 802.11 network,
whether 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, etc.

If the IP address is already assigned to the computer in
the network, ask the network administrator to check the
IP address to be set for the computer.
If no access point is found in the network:
An IP address is expressed with four values in the range
between 1 and 255.
Set the each computer as follows: The value in paren-
theses is a subnet mask.
<Example>
Computer A: 192.168.100.2 (255.255.255.0)
Computer B: 192.168.100.3 (255.255.255.0)
Computer C: 192.168.100.4 (255.255.255.0)
:
:
Computer X: 192.168.100.254 (255.255.255.0)
IP addressing is much more complicated
than can be briefly explained in this
document. You are advised to consult with
your network administrator for additional
information.
A DHCP server is a server that
automatically assigns IP addresses to
computers or other devices in the network.
There is no DHCP server for the AdHoc
network.

Fingerprint Sensor Device
INTRODUCING THE
FINGERPRINT SENSOR DEVICE
Your system may have a fingerprint sensor device on the
side of the display opposite the function buttons. The
device is a standard feature on 12.1” models; it is not
available on 10.4” models. (See Figure 1-2 on page 3 for
location)
Figure B-1 Fingerprint sensor
With a fingerprint sensor, you can avoid having to enter
a username and password every time you want to:
■Log onto Windows
■Recover from suspend mode
■Cancel a password-protected screen saver
■Log into homepages that require a username and pass-
word
After you have “enrolled” - or registered - your finger-
print, you can simply swipe your fingertip over the
sensor for the system to recognize you.
The fingerprint sensor uses Softex OmniPass which
provides password management capabilities to
Microsoft Windows operating systems. OmniPass
enables you to use a "master password" for all Windows,
applications, and on-line passwords.
OmniPass requires users to authenticate themselves
using the fingerprint sensor before granting access to the
Windows desktop. This device results in a secure
authentication system for restricting access to your
computer, applications, web sites, and other password-
protected resources.
OmniPass presents a convenient graphical user inter-
face, through which you can securely manage pass-
words, users, and multiple identities for each user.
GETTING STARTED
This section guides you through the preparation of your
system for the OmniPass fingerprint recognition
application. You will be led through the OmniPass
installation process. You will also be led through the
procedure of enrolling your first user into OmniPass.
INSTALLING OMNIPASS
If OmniPass has already been installed on your system,
skip this section and go directly to “User Enrollment” on
page 68. You can determine whether OmniPass has
already been installed by checking to see if the following
are present:
■The presence of the gold key-shaped OmniPass icon in
the system tray at the bottom right of the screen.
■The presence of the Softex program group in the
Programs group of the Start menu
System Requirements
The OmniPass application requires space on your hard
drive; it also requires specific Operating Systems (OS’s).
The minimum requirements are as follows:
■Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Profes-
sional or Windows 2000 operating system
■At least 35 MB available hard disk space
Installing the OmniPass Application
If OmniPass is already installed on your system, go to
“User Enrollment” on page 68. Otherwise continue with
this section on software installation.
To install OmniPass on your system you must:
1. Insert the installation media for the OmniPass
application into the appropriate drive. If you are
installing from CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, you must
find and launch the OmniPass installation program
(setup.exe) from the media.
2. Follow the directions provided in the OmniPass
installation program. Specify a location to which
you would like OmniPass installed.It is recom-
mended that you NOT install OmniPass in the root
directory (e.g. C:\).
3. Once OmniPass has completed installation you will
be prompted to restart you system. Once your
system has rebooted you will be able to use
OmniPass. If you choose not to restart immediately
after installation, OmniPass will not be available for
use until the next reboot.
The installation program automatically places an icon
(Softex OmniPass) in the Windows Control Panel as
well as a golden key shaped icon in the taskbar.
For installation, OmniPass requires that the
user installing OmniPass have
administrative privileges to the system. If
your current user does not have
administrative privileges, log out and then
log in as an administrator before
proceeding with OmniPass installation.

Verifying Information about OmniPass
After you have completed installing OmniPass and
restarted your system, you may wish to check the version
of OmniPass on your system.
To check the version information of OmniPass:
1. From the Windows Desktop, double-click the key-
shaped OmniPass icon in the taskbar (usually
located in the lower right corner of the screen),
or,
Click the Start button, select Settings, and click
Control Panel (if you are using Windows XP you
will see the Control Panel directly in the Start menu;
click it, then click Switch to Classic View). Double-
click Softex OmniPass in the Control Panel, and the
OmniPass Control Center will appear. If it does not
appear, then the program is not properly installed,
or,
Click the Start button, select Programs, and from
the submenu select the Softex program group, from
that submenu click OmniPass Control Center.
2. Select the About tab at the top of the OmniPass
Control Panel. The About tab window appears with
version information about OmniPass.
Uninstalling OmniPass
To remove the OmniPass application from your system:
1. Click Start on the Windows taskbar. Select Settings,
and then Control Panel.
2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
3. Select OmniPass, and then click Change/Remove.
4. Follow the directions to uninstall the OmniPass
application.
5. Once OmniPass has finished uninstalling, reboot
your system when prompted.
USER ENROLLMENT
Before you can use any OmniPass features you must first
enroll a user into OmniPass.
Master Password Concept
Computer resources are often protected with passwords.
Whether you are logging into your computer, accessing
your email, e-banking, paying bills online, or accessing
network resources, you often have to supply credentials
to gain access. This can result in dozens of sets of creden-
tials that you have to remember.
During OmniPass user enrollment a "master password”
is created for the enrolled user. This master password
“replaces” all other passwords for sites you register with
OmniPass.
Example: A user, John, installs OmniPass on his system
(his home computer) and enrolls an OmniPass user with
username “John_01” and password “freq14”. He then
goes to his webmail site to log onto his account. He
inputs his webmail credentials as usual (username
“John_02” and password “tablet”), but instead of
clicking [Submit], he directs OmniPass to Remember
Password. Now whenever he returns to that site,
OmniPass will prompt him to supply access credentials.
John enters his OmniPass user credentials (“John_01”
and “freq14”) in the OmniPass authentication prompt,
and he is allowed into his webmail account. He can do
this with as many web sites or password protected
resources he likes, and he will gain access to all those
sites with his OmniPass user credentials (“John_01” and
“freq14”). This is assuming he is accessing those sites
with the system onto which he enrolled his OmniPass
user. OmniPass does not actually change the credentials
of the password protected resource. If John were to go to
an Internet cafe to access his webmail, he would need to
enter his original webmail credentials (“John_02” and
“tablet”) to gain access. If he attempts his OmniPass user
credentials on a system other than where he enrolled
that OmniPass user, he will not gain access.
Basic Enrollment
The Enrollment Wizard will guide you through the
process of enrolling a user. Unless you specified other-
wise, after OmniPass installation the Enrollment Wizard
will launch on Windows login. If you do not see the
Enrollment Wizard, you can bring it up by clicking Start
on the Windows taskbar; select Programs; select Softex;
click OmniPass Enrollment Wizard.
1. Click Enroll to proceed to username and password
verification. By default, the OmniPass Enrollment
Wizard enters the credentials of the currently logged
in Windows user.
2. Enter the password you use to log in to Windows.
This will become the “master password” for this
For uninstallation, OmniPass requires that
the user uninstalling OmniPass have
administrative privileges to the system. If
your current user does not have
administrative privileges, log out and then
log in as an administrator before
proceeding with OmniPass uninstallation.
The basic enrollment procedure assumes
you have no hardware authentication
devices or alternate storage locations that
you wish to integrate with OmniPass. If
you desire such functionality, consult the
appropriate sections after reviewing this
section.

OmniPass user. In most cases, the Domain: value will
be your Windows computer name. In a corporate
environment, or when accessing corporate resources,
the Domain: may not be your Windows computer
name. Click [Next] to continue.
3. In this step OmniPass captures your fingerprint.
Refer to “Enrolling a Fingerprint” on page 69 for
additional information.
4. Next, choose how OmniPass notifies you of various
events. We recommend you keep Taskbar Tips on
Beginner mode taskbar tips and Audio Tips on at
least Prompt with system beeps only until you get
accustomed to how OmniPass operates. Click [Next]
to proceed with user enrollment. You will then see a
Congratulations screen indicating your completion
of user enrollment.
5. Click [Done] to exit the OmniPass Enrollment
Wizard. You will be asked if you’d like to log in to
OmniPass with your newly enrolled user; click [Yes].
Enrolling a Fingerprint
Enrolling a fingerprint will increase the security of your
system and streamline the authentication procedure.
You enroll fingerprints in the OmniPass Control Center.
With an OmniPass user logged in, double-click the
system tray OmniPass icon. Select the User Settings tab
and click Enrollment under the User Settings area. Click
Enroll Authentication Device and authenticate at the
authentication prompt to start device enrollment.
1. During initial user enrollment, you will be prompted
to select the finger you wish to enroll. Fingers that
have already been enrolled will be marked by a green
check. The finger you select to enroll at this time will
be marked by a red arrow. OmniPass allows you to
re-enroll a finger. If you choose a finger that has
already been enrolled and continue enrollment,
OmniPass will enroll the fingerprint, overwriting the
old fingerprint. Select a finger to enroll and click
[Next].
2. It is now time for OmniPass to capture your selected
fingerprint. It may take a several capture attempts
before OmniPass acquires your fingerprint. Should
OmniPass fail to acquire your fingerprint, or if the
capture screen times out, click [Back] to restart the
fingerprint enrollment process.
Your system has a “swipe” fingerprint sensor. A swipe
sensor is small and resembles a skinny elongated rect-
angle. To capture a fingerprint, gently swipe or pull
your fingertip over the sensor (starting at the second
knuckle) in the direction of the arrow. Swiping too
fast or too slow will result in a failed capture. The
Choose Finger screen has a [Practice] button; click it
to practice capturing your fingerprint. When you are
comfortable with how your fingerprint is captured,
proceed to enroll a finger.
3. Once OmniPass has successfully acquired the finger-
print, the Verify Fingerprint screen will automati-
cally appear. To verify your enrolled fingerprint, place
your fingertip on the sensor and hold it there as if
you were having a fingerprint captured. Successful
fingerprint verification will show a green fingerprint
in the capture window and the text Ve r i f i c a t i o n
Successful under the capture window.
USING OMNIPASS
You are now ready to begin using OmniPass. Used regu-
larly, OmniPass will streamline your authentication
procedures.
Password Replacement
You will often use the password replacement function.
When you go to a restricted access website (e.g., your
bank, your web-based email, online auction or payment
sites), you are always prompted to enter your login
credentials. OmniPass can detect these prompts and you
can teach OmniPass your login credentials. The next time
you go to that website, you can authenticate with your
fingerprint to gain access.
OmniPass Authentication Toolbar
After installing OmniPass and restarting, you will notice
a dialog you have not seen before at Windows Logon.
This is the OmniPass Authentication Toolbar, and it is
displayed whenever the OmniPass authentication system
is invoked. The OmniPass authentication system may be
invoked frequently: during Windows Logon, during
OmniPass Logon, when unlocking your workstation,
when resuming from standby or hibernate, when
unlocking a password-enabled screensaver, during pass-
word replacement for remembered site or application
logins, and more. When you see this toolbar, OmniPass is
prompting you to authenticate.
The Logon Authentication window indicates what
OmniPass-restricted function you are attempting. The
icons in the lower left (fingerprint and key) show what
authentication methods are available to you. Selected
authentication methods are highlighted while unselected
methods are not. When you click the icon for an unse-
lected authentication method, the authentication prompt
associated with that method is displayed.
When prompted to authenticate, you must supply the
appropriate credentials: an enrolled finger for the finger-
print capture window or your master password for the
master password prompt (the key icon).
Remembering a Password
OmniPass can remember any application, GUI, or pass-
word protected resource that has a password prompt.

Using the following procedure, you can store a set of
credentials into OmniPass. These credentials will then be
linked to your “master password” or fingerprint.
Go to a site that requires a login (username and pass-
word), but do not log in yet. At the site login prompt,
enter your username and password in the prompted
fields, but do not enter the site (do not hit [Enter],
[Submit], [OK], or Login). Right-click the OmniPass
system tray icon and select Remember Password from
the submenu. The Windows arrow cursor will change to
a golden key OmniPass cursor. Click this OmniPass
cursor in the login prompt area, but do not click the
[Login] or [Submit] button.
Associating a Friendly Name
After clicking the OmniPass key cursor near the login
prompt, OmniPass will prompt you to enter a “friendly
name” for this site. You should enter something that
reminds you of the website, the company, or the service
you are logging into. In its secure database, OmniPass
associates this friendly name with this website.
Additional Settings for Remembering a Site
When OmniPass prompts you to enter a “friendly name”
you also have the opportunity to set how OmniPass
authenticates you to this site. There are three effective
settings for how OmniPass handles a remembered site.
The default setting is Automatically click the “OK” or
“Submit” button for this password protected site once
the user is authenticated. With this setting, each time
you navigate to this site OmniPass will prompt you for
your master password or fingerprint authentication
device. Once you have authenticated with OmniPass,
you will automatically be logged into the site.
Less secure is the option to Automatically enter this
password protected site when it is activated. Do not
prompt for authentication. Check the upper box to get
this setting, and each time you navigate to this site
OmniPass will log you into the site without prompting
you to authenticate.
If you uncheck both boxes in Settings for this Password
Site, OmniPass will prompt you for your master pass-
word or fingerprint authentication device. Once you
have authenticated with OmniPass your credentials will
be filled in to the site login prompt, but you will have to
click the website [OK], [Submit], or [Login] button to
gain access to the site.
Click Finish to complete the remember password proce-
dure. The site location, the credentials to access the site,
and the OmniPass authentication settings for the site are
now stored in the OmniPass secure database. The
OmniPass authentication settings (Settings for this Pass-
word Site) can always be changed in Vault Management.
Logging in to a Remembered Site
Whether or not OmniPass prompts you to authenticate
when you return to a remembered site is determined by
Settings for this Password Site and can be changed in
Vault Management.
The following cases are applicable to using OmniPass to
login to: Windows, remembered web sites, and all other
password protected resources.
With Master Password
Once you return to a site you have remembered with
OmniPass, you may be presented with a master pass-
word prompt. Enter your master password and you will
be allowed into the site.
Logging into Windows with a Fingerprint Device
When logging into Windows with a fingerprint device,
the fingerprint capture window will now appear next to
the Windows Login screen. Place your enrolled fingertip
on the sensor to authenticate. You will be simultaneously
logged into Windows and OmniPass. The capture
window will also appear if you have used Ctrl-Alt-Del to
lock a system, and the fingerprint device can be used to
log back in as stated above.
In Windows XP, your login options must be set either for
classic login, or for fast user switching and logon screen
to be enabled to use your fingerprint to log on to
Windows. To change this go to Control Panel, select
User Accounts and then click Change the way users log
on or off. If your Windows screensaver is password
protected, the fingerprint capture window will now
appear next to screensaver password dialog during
resume. You can authenticate to your screensaver pass-
word prompt with your enrolled finger.
Password Management
OmniPass provides an interface that lets you manage
your passwords. To access this GUI, double-click the
This setting is more convenient in that
whenever you go to a site remembered
with this setting, you will bypass any
authentication procedure and gain instant
access to the site. But should you leave
your system unattended with your
OmniPass user logged in, anyone using
your system can browse to your password
protected sites and gain automatic access.
If a machine is locked and OmniPass
detects a different user logging back in
with a fingerprint, the first user will be
logged out and the second user logged in.

Security Device User’s Guide
OmniPass key in the system tray. Click Vault Manage-
ment; you will be prompted to authenticate. Once you
gain access to Vault Management, click Manage Pass-
words under Vault Settings. You will see the Manage
Passwords interface, with a list of friendly names.
You can view the credentials stored for any remembered
website by highlighting the desired resource under Pass-
word Protected Dialog and clicking Unmask Values.
Should a password be reset, or an account expire, you
can remove stored credentials from OmniPass. Highlight
the desired resource under Password Protected Dialog
and click Delete Page. You will be prompted to confirm
the password deletion.
The two check boxes in Manage Passwords govern
whether OmniPass prompts you to authenticate or
directly logs you into the remembered site.
OmniPass will overwrite an old set of credentials for a
website if you attempt to use Remember Password on an
already remembered site.
The exception to the above rule is the resetting of your
Windows password. If your password is reset in
Windows, then the next time you login to Windows,
OmniPass will detect the password change and prompt
you to “Update” or “Reconfirm” your password with
OmniPass. Enter your new Windows password in the
prompt(s) and click OK and your OmniPass "master
password" will still be your Windows password.
OmniPass User Identities
Identities allow OmniPass users to have multiple
accounts to the same site (e.g., bob@biblomail.com and
boballen@biblomail.com). If OmniPass did not provide
you identities, you would be limited to remembering
one account per site.
To create and manage identities, double-click the
OmniPass key in the system tray. Click Vault Manage-
ment; OmniPass will prompt you to authenticate. Once
you gain access to Vault Management, click Manage
Identities under Vault Settings. You can only manage
the identities of the currently logged in OmniPass user
To add a new identity, click New Identity or double-click
Click here to add a new identity. Name the new identity
and click [OK], then click [Apply]. You can now switch
to the new identity and start remembering passwords.
To delete an identity, highlight the identity you want to
delete and click [Delete Identity], then click [Apply].
To set the default identity, highlight the identity you
want as default and click [Set as Default]; click [Apply]
to ensure the settings are saved. If you log in to
OmniPass with a fingerprint device, you will automati-
cally be logged in to the default identity for that
OmniPass user. You can choose the identity with which
you are logging in if you login using "master password".
Choosing User Identity during Login
To choose your identity during login, type your user-
name in the User Name: field. Press [Tab] and see that
the Domain: field self-populates. Click the Password:
field to bring the cursor to it, and you will see the pull-
down menu in the Identity: field. Select the identity you
wish to login as and then click OK to login.
Switch User Identity
To switch identities at any time, right-click the
OmniPass system tray icon and click Switch User Iden-
tity from the submenu. The Switch Identity dialog will
appear. Select the desired identity and then click OK.
Identities and Password Management
On the Manage Passwords interface of the Va u l t
Management tab of the OmniPass Control Center, there
is a pull-down selection box labeled, Identity. This field
lets you choose which identity you are managing pass-
words for. When you select an identity here, only those
password protected dialogs that are associated with that
identity are shown. You can perform all the functions
explained in “Password Management” on page 70.
CONFIGURING OMNIPASS
This section gives an overview of both the Export/
Import function and the OmniPass Control Center.
Exporting and Importing Users
Using the OmniPass Control Center, you can export and
import users in and out of OmniPass. The export
process backs up all remembered sites, credentials, and
any enrolled fingerprints for an OmniPass user. All
OmniPass data for a user is backed up to a single
encrypted database file. During the import process, the
Windows login of the exported user is required. If the
When you delete an identity, all of its
associated remembered sites and password
protected dialogs are lost.

proper credentials cannot be supplied, the user profile
will not be imported.
Exporting an OmniPass User Profile
To export a user, open the OmniPass Control Center,
and click Import/Export User under Manage Users.
Click Exports an OmniPass user profile. OmniPass will
prompt you to authenticate. Upon successfully authenti-
cation, you must name the OmniPass user profile and
decide where to save it. An .opi file is generated, and you
should store a copy of it in a safe place.
This .opi file contains all your user specific OmniPass
data, and it is both encrypted and password protected.
This user profile does NOT contain any of your
encrypted data files.
Importing an OmniPass User Profile
To import an OmniPass user open the OmniPass
Control Center, and click Import/Export User under
Manage Users. Click Imports a new user into OmniPass
and then select OmniPass Import/Export File (*.opi)
and click Next. OmniPass will then prompt you to
browse for the file you had previously exported (.opi
file). When you select the .opi file for importation,
OmniPass will prompt you for authentication. The
credentials that will allow a user profile to be imported
are the Windows login credentials of the exported user.
They are the credentials that had to be submitted when
the user profile was exported. You will need User Name,
Password, and Domain. If you don’t remember the value
for Domain, in a PC or SOHO environment Domain
should be your computer name.
OmniPass will notify you if the user was successfully
imported.
Things to Know Regarding Import/Export
■Assume you export a local Windows User profile from
OmniPass. You want to import that profile to another
machine that has OmniPass. Before you can import
the profile, a Windows user with the same login cre-
dentials must be created on the machine importing the
profile.
Example: I have a Windows user with the username
“Tom” and the password “Sunshine” on my system. I
have enrolled Tom into OmniPass and remembered
passwords. I want to take all my passwords to new sys-
tem. I export Tom’s OmniPass user profile. I go to my
new system and using the Control Panel I create a user
with the username "Tom" and the password "Sun-
shine". I can now successfully import the OmniPass
user data to the new system.
■If you export an OmniPass-only user, you can import
that user to any computer running OmniPass, pro-
vided that a user with that name is not already
enrolled in OmniPass.
■If you attempt to import a user profile who has the
same name as a user already enrolled in OmniPass, the
OmniPass import function will fail.
OMNIPASS CONTROL CENTER
This section will serve to explain functions within the
OmniPass Control Center that weren’t explained earlier.
You can access the OmniPass Control Center any of
three ways:
■Double-click the golden OmniPass key shaped icon in
the Windows taskbar (typically in the lower-right cor-
ner of the desktop)
■Click the Start button; select the Programs group;
select the Softex program group; and click the
OmniPass Control Center selection.
■Open the Windows Control Panel (accessible via Start
button --> Settings --> Control Panel) and double-
click the Softex OmniPass icon.
User Management
The User Management tab has two major interfaces:
Add/Remove User and Import/Export User. Import/
Export User functionality is documented in “Exporting
and Importing Users” on page 71. Add/Remove User
functionality is straightforward.
If you click Adds a new user to OmniPass you will start
the OmniPass Enrollment Wizard. The Enrollment
Wizard is documented in “User Enrollment” on page 68.
■You should periodically export your user
profile and store it in a safe place. If
anything happens to your system, you
can import your OmniPass profile to a
new system and have all your remem-
bered settings and fingerprints instantly.
■When you examine the importation, you
are prompted for authentication. The
credentials that will allow a user profile
to be imported are the Windows login
credentials of the exported user. They
are the credentials that had to be
submitted when the user profile was
exported. You will need User Name,
Password, and Domain.
You cannot import a user into OmniPass if
there already is a user with the same name
enrolled in OmniPass.

Security Device User’s Guide
If you click Removes a user from OmniPass, OmniPass
will prompt you to authenticate. Authenticate with the
credentials (or enrolled fingerprint) of the user you wish
to remove. OmniPass will prompt you to confirm user
removal. Click OK to complete user removal.
User Settings
The User Settings tab has four interfaces: Audio Settings,
Taskbar T i ps, and Enrollment. User settings allow users
to customize OmniPass to suit their individual prefer-
ences. Under User Settings (Audio Settings and Ta s k b a r
Tips) you can set how OmniPass notifies the user of
OmniPass events (e.g., successful login, access denied,
etc.). The details of each setting under the Audio
Settings and Taskbar T ips interfaces are self-explana-
tory.
The Enrollment interface allows you to enroll finger-
prints. For the procedure to enroll and authentication
device refer to Chapter 2.3. To enroll additional finger-
prints, click Enroll Authentication Device, and authen-
ticate with OmniPass. Select the fingerprint recognition
device in the Select Authentication Device screen (it
should already be marked by a green check if you have a
finger enrolled) and click Next.
System Settings
The OmniPass Startup Options interface can be found
in the System Settings tab. With these options you can
specify how your OmniPass Logon is tied to your
Windows Logon.
The first option, Automatically log on to OmniPass as
the current user, will do just as it says; during Windows
login, you will be logged on to OmniPass using your
Windows login credentials. If the user logging into
Windows was never enrolled into OmniPass, upon login
no one will be logged on to OmniPass. This setting is
appropriate for an office setting or any setting where
users must enter a username and password to log into a
computer. This is the default setting.
With the second option, Manually log on to OmniPass
at startup, OmniPass will prompt you to login once you
have logged on to Windows.
With the third option, Do not log on to OmniPass at
startup, OmniPass will not prompt for a user to be
logged on.
You can manually log on to OmniPass by right-clicking
the OmniPass taskbar icon and clicking Log in User
from the right-click menu.
Removing a user will automatically destroy
all OmniPass data associated with that
user. All identities and credentials
associated with the user will be lost. If you
are sure about removing the user, we
recommend you export the user profile.

TROUBLESHOOTING
You cannot use OmniPass to create Windows users. You
must first create the Windows user, and you will need
administrative privileges to do that. Once the Windows
user is created, you can add that user to OmniPass using
the same username and password
Cannot add Windows users to OmniPass
If you experience difficulties adding a Windows user
to OmniPass, you may need to adjust your local secu-
rity settings. You can do this by going to Start,
Control Panel,Administrative Tools, and Local
Security Settings. Expand Local Policies, expand
Security Options, and double-click Network Access:
Sharing and Security Model for Local Accounts. The
correct setting should be Classic - Local Users Authen-
ticate as Themselves.
Cannot add a User with a Blank Password to OmniPass
If you experience difficulties adding a user with a
blank password to OmniPass, you may need to adjust
your local security settings. First attempt the proce-
dure explained in the Cannot add Windows user to
OmniPass section. If the difficulties persist, then try
the following procedure.
Click Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools,
and Local Security Settings. Expand Local Policies,
expand Security Options, and double-click
Accounts: Limit local account use of blank pass-
words to console login only. This setting should be
set to Disabled.
Dialog appears after OmniPass authentication during
Windows Logon
After installing OmniPass on your system, you can
choose to logon to Windows using OmniPass. You
authenticate with OmniPass (via master password, or
an enrolled security device) and OmniPass logs you
into Windows. You may, during this OmniPass
authentication, see a Login Error dialog box.
This dialog box occurs when OmniPass was unable to
log you into Windows with the credentials supplied
(username and password). This could happen for any
of the following reasons:
■Your Windows password has changed
■Your Windows account has been disabled
If you are having difficulties due to the first reason,
you will need to update OmniPass with your changed
Windows account password. Click Update Password
and you will be prompted with a dialog to reconfirm
your password.
Enter the new password to your Windows user
account and click OK. If the error persists, then it is
unlikely the problem is due to your Windows user
account password changing.

Security Device User’s Guide
Trusted Platform Module Installation
This disc contains several utilities that allow you to
enhance the security of your system using the optional
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) contained in the sys-
tem. TPM is a Trusted Computer Group (TCG)-compli-
ant embedded security chip that allows computers to run
applications more securely and to make transactions and
communications more trustworthy. TPM is an important
component of the Fujitsu Security Platform.
Procedure
Be sure you have a built-in or external drive attached to
your system that can read CDs. You will also need a
means to write to removable media during the installa-
tion.
Enabling the Security Chip in BIOS
1. Before installing the TPM software, you will need to
enable the security chip in the system BIOS. To do so:
• If your system is running, click [Start] -> Shut
Down, and select Restart. Click [OK].
• If the system is not running, power it up.
2. When the Fujitsu logo appears, press the [F2] but-
ton. The BIOS Setup Utility will appear.
3. Open the Security menu, scroll down to Set Super-
visor Password, and enter a password (if not already
set).
4. While in the Security menu, scroll down to Security
Chip Setting, and click on it. The Security Chip Set-
ting submenu will appear.
5. Click on Security Chip to enable it.
6. Click [F10] to save changes and exit.
Installing the TPM Applications
1. Insert the “Trusted Platform Module Drivers and
Applications CD” in the drive.
2. The setup program should start the installation
automatically. If the installation does not start auto-
matically, go to the setup.exe file on the disc and
double-click on it.
3. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen
to load the drivers and applications for TPM.
4. After loading the software, you will be prompted to
reboot your system. Remove the CD from the drive,
then reboot.
5. After rebooting, the Security Platform Installation
Wizard will open and lead you through the setup
and customization of the TPM applications.
Getting Help
■For detailed help about installing the TPM applica-
tions, go to the readme.txt file on the disc.
■For in-depth help and information about the TPM
applications, double-click on the Security Platform
icon in the system tray, and click {Getting Started
Guide].
• The use of this disc requires that you
have a device capable of reading CDs
attached to your system. If you do not
have a built-in CD or DVD player, you
will need to attach an external player.
• The use of this disc also requires a
device capable of writing to removable
media (such as a floppy disk drive, CD-
RW drive, or PCMCIA memory card).
This drive will be used to store the
Emergency Recovery Token file and -- if
desired -- the Emergency Recovery
Archive file. For more information on
available external devices, visit our Web
site at: us.fujitsu.com/computers.
When installing the software, be sure to
create Emergency Recovery Archive and
Emergency Recovery Token files when
prompted by the Security Platform
Initialization Wizard. These files will be
necessary in the event of hardware failure.
Failure to create these files could result in
a loss of the Security Platform owner key,
which is the physical root for secrets as
well as the logical root for all Security
Platform user-specific keys. The
Initialization Wizard provides step-by-step
instructions for creating the files.
