17Getting to Know Your Tablet PCFigure 2-11. Opening the displayDisplay PanelYour LifeBook T Series Tablet PC contains a display panel that is backlit for easier viewing in bright environ-ments. The convertible design of your Tablet PC allows you to open the display fully, rotate it 180 degrees, and lay it face up on the keyboard. This allows you to use the system as a tablet, much as you would a pad of paper.OPENING THE DISPLAY PANEL1. Slide the latch release to the right. This releases the locking mechanism. While holding the latch release, lift display cover.2. Lift the display backwards, being careful not to touch the screen, until it is at a comfortable viewing angle. (Figure 2-11)USING THE SYSTEM AS A TABLETIf you would like to use the system as a tablet, perform the following steps. 1. Lift the display until it is perpendicular to the keyboard. (Figure 2-13).2. When the display is perpendicular to the keyboard, rotate it clockwise (when viewed from the top). Be very careful to rotate it in the direction indicated. (Figure 2-14). Turn the display 180 degrees so that it is facing backwards. (Figure 2-15)3. Holding the top edge of the display panel, pull it forward until it is lying nearly atop the keyboard.4. Push the latch towards the display (See "A" in Figure 2-12). The latch will pivot so the top latch disappears, and the bottom latch appears (See "B" in Figure 2-12). Holding the latch down, lay the display flush against the system so that the latch engages. You can now use your system as a tablet. (Figure 2-16)Figure 2-12. Latching/Unlatching5. To return the system to notebook configuration, repeat step 3 and 2. Be sure to turn the display in the opposite direction when performing step 2.Figure 2-13.

27Getting to Know Your Tablet PCPen and Active DigitizerUSING THE PENYou can use the LifeBook T Series Tablet PC pen to generate and create electronic “ink”, to select items, and to navigate through programs on the Tablet PC. Programs that support handwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen with the pen. You can also use the pen as a drawing tool.Figure 2-24. LifeBook T Series PenThe screen reacts when the pen tip is approximately 1/8 inch (3-5 mm) from the screen. The pen has three switches: a tip switch and a barrel button toggle switch with switches at both ends. By default, the tip switch corresponds to the left mouse button, and the front toggle (closest to the pen tip) barrel button switch corre-sponds to the right mouse button (when used in combi-nation with the tip switch). The rear toggle of the barrel button switch acts as an electronic ink "eraser".The functions of the rear toggle and the tip click pres-sure can be changed by clicking [Start] -> Control Pane, and double-clicking the Fujitsu Pen Settings icon. To change the rear toggle function, select the drop-down list to select a new function, then click [Apply]. If you don’t want the rear toggle to have any function, select Ignore from the list. Adjusting the click pressure determines how much pres-sure must be put on the pen tip in order for the screen to react. The softer it is set, less pressure is required; the harder it is set, more pressure is required. To change the click pressure, use the slider bar to make the click pres-sure harder or softer, then click [Apply]. Here are some hints that may help you use the pen more effectively:• To activate the tip switch, tap or hold the pen tip against the screen.• To activate the barrel button switch, press and hold the end of the button you wish to use (front toggle is the right mouse button switch; the rear toggle acts as an electronic “eraser”).• To move the cursor, hold the pen tip within 1/8 inch (3 - 5 mm) from the screen and move the pen.• To start a program, double-tap the pen tip (tap the pen tip twice rapidly) on the program icon as you would double-click a mouse.•To select an object, tap the pen tip on the object once. •To double-click an object, quickly tap the object twice.CALIBRATING THE PENIn order to ensure accurate tracking between the pen and cursor, you must run the Touch Screen Calibration Utility before you use the active digitizer for the first time, or after you change the display resolution.To run the calibration utility:1. Go to Start -> Control Panel and double-click on the Tabl et and Pen S ettin gs icon. 2. Click Calibrate.3. Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfort-able angle.You are advised to use a screen protector on your system display to minimize the chance of its being scratched. Screen protectors are available from the Fujitsu Web site at www.fujitsupc.com. The LifeBook T Series Tablet PC pen is a  high-quality electronic instrument that can be damaged if used improperly. Treat the pen as you would any precision device. Observe the following guidelines:• Do not gesture with the pen, use it as a pointer, or tap it on surfaces other than the Tablet PC screen.• Do not try to turn the thumb grip on the pen; it is designed for inserting and removing the pen from the pen holder.• Never store the pen with the tip bearing the weight of the pen (e.g., sitting tip down in a pencil cup). Storing the pen tip down could distort the internal mechanism over a period of time (especially in higher temperatures), causing the tip to act as if it is always depressed. The pen should be stored in the pen holder when not in use.Tip SwitchBarrel SwitchUse only the pen provided with your Tablet PC. Do not use substitutes that were not designed for the LifeBook T Series Tablet PC.T Series.book  Page 27  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM

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

36LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section ThreePower ManagementYour LifeBook T Series Tablet PC has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features are automatic and need no user intervention, such as those for the internal modem. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your oper-ating conditions, such as those for the display bright-ness. Internal power management for your Tablet PC may be controlled from settings made in your operating system, pre-bundled power management application, or from settings made in BIOS setup utility.Besides the options available for conserving battery power, there are also some things that you can do to prevent your Tablet PC battery from running down as quickly. For example, you can create an appropriate power saving profile, put your Tablet PC into Standby mode when it is not performing an operation, and you can limit the use of high power devices. As with all mobile, battery powered computers, there is a trade-off between performance and power savings.Table 3-1.  System Power StatesSUSPEND/RESUME BUTTONWhen your Tablet PC is active, the Suspend/Resume button can be used to manually put your Tablet PC into Standby mode. Push the Suspend/Resume button when your Tablet PC is active, but not actively accessing anything, and immediately release the button. You will hear two short beeps and your system will enter Standby mode. (See figure 2-6 on page 12 for location).If your Tablet PC is suspended, pushing the Suspend/Resume button will return your Tablet PC to active operation. You can tell whether or not your system is in Standby mode by looking at the Power indicator. See “Power Indicator” on page 15. If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your Tablet PC is fully operational. If the indicator is both visible and flashing, your Tablet PC is in Standby mode. If the indicator is not visible at all, the power is off or your Tablet PC is in Hibernate mode (See Hibernate Mode)STANDBY MODEStandby mode in Windows saves the contents of your Tablet PC’s system memory during periods of inactivity by maintaining power to critical parts. This mode will turn off the CPU, the display, the hard drive, and all of the other internal components except those necessary to maintain system memory and allow for restarting. Your Tablet PC can be put in Standby mode by:■Pressing the Suspend/Resume button when your system is turned on.■Selecting Standby from the Windows Shut Down menu.■Timing out from lack of activity.■Allowing the battery to reach the Dead BatteryWarning condition.■Closing the system cover.Your Tablet PC’s system memory typically stores the file(s) on which you are working, open application(s) information, and any other data required to support the operation(s) in progress. When you resume operation Power Mode System Activity Events causing system to enter mode stateFully On Mode System is running. CPU, system bus, and all other interfaces operate at full speed.■From Standby mode: System operation resumed (Suspend/Resume button pressed, resume on modem ring, resume on time).■From Hibernation mode: Suspend/Resume button pressed.■From Off mode: Suspend/Resume button pressed.Standby Mode(Suspend-to-RAM)Resume system logic remains powered and RAM remains powered to maintain active data. All other devices are turned off.■Standby timeout occurs.■Suspend request issued by software or by pressing the Suspend/Resume button.■Low battery.Hibernation Mode(Suspend-to-Disk)Windows saves desktop state (including open files and documents) to hard disk. CPU stops. All other devices are turned off.■Suspend timeout occurs.■Clicking Start -> Shut Down -> Hibernate (It may be necessary to Enable Hibernate Support from Windows Power Options.)■Low battery conditionPower Off System is fully powered off except for logic components required for Suspend/Resume button and real-time clock operation.■System shutdown.■Low battery conditionT Series.book  Page 36  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM
37Getting Startedfrom Standby mode, your Tablet PC will return to the point where it left off. To resume operation, you must use the Suspend/Resume button to resume operation, and there must be an adequate power source available, or your Tablet PC will not resume.HIBERNATE MODEThe Hibernate mode saves the contents of yourTablet PC’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the Suspend/Resume mode. Your Tablet PC is pre-configured to perform this function. The Hibernate mode can also be configured through the system BIOS to run in other ways depending on what you need to accomplish. See “BIOS Setup Utility” on page 34.Using Hibernate ModeHibernate default setting is enabled for Windows XP. To   enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these easy steps:1. From the Start menu, select Settings, and then select Control Panel -> Power Options.2. Select Hibernation, and then select the box to enable or disable this feature.To   use Hibernate mode with Windows XP systems:1. Click on the Start button, click Shut Down.2. Select Hibernate option from the “What do you want the computer to do” list.DISPLAY TIMEOUT The Video Timeout is one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the display if there is no keyboard or pointer activity for the user selected timeout period. Any keyboard or pointer activity will cause the display to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows Power Management.HARD DISK TIMEOUTThe Hard Disk Timeout is another one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the hard drive if there is no hard drive activity for the user selected timeout period. Any attempt to access the hard drive will cause it to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows.WINDOWS POWER MANAGEMENT The Power Options icon located in the Windows Control Panel allows you to configure some of the power management settings. For example, you can use the Power Options to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you are running the Tablet PC on battery power or one of the adapters. RESTARTING THE SYSTEMIf your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure. 1. Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.2. Select the Restart option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.3. Click OK. Your Tablet PC will shut down and reboot.If you are running your Tablet PC on battery power, be aware that the battery continues to discharge while your Tablet PC is in Standby mode, though not as fast as when fully operational. ■Standby or Hibernate modes should not be used with certain PC Cards. Check your PC Card documentation for more information.■Disabling the Suspend/Resume button prevents it from being used to put your Tablet PC in Standby or Hibernate mode. The resume function of the button cannot be disabled.■If your Tablet PC is actively accessing information when you enter Standby or Hibernate mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Standby mode or the memory is transferred to the hard drive during Hibernate mode.■When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Save-to-Disk mode cannot return to the exact state prior to suspension, because all peripheral devices will be re-initialized when the system restarts.■The main advantage of using Hibernate mode is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is very impor-tant if you will be leaving your Tablet PC in a suspended state for a prolonged period of time. The drawback of using Hibernate mode is that it lengthens the power down and power up sequences and resets peripheral devices.T Series.book  Page 37  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM
38LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section ThreePOWER OFFBefore turning off the power by choosing Shut Down from the Windows Start menu, check that the Hard Drive, CD-ROM, PC Card and the Floppy Disk Drive Access indicators are all Off. (See Figure 2-9 on page 15) If you turn off the power while accessing a disk or PC Card there is a risk of data loss. To assure that your Tablet PC shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down procedure.Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows, allows your Tablet PC to complete its opera-tions and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:1. Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.2. Select the Shut Down option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.3. Click OK.If you are going to store your Tablet PC for a month or more see the Care and Maintenance section.

41User-Installable FeaturesLithium ion BatteryYour LifeBook T Series Tablet PC has a Lithium ion battery that provides power for operating your Tablet PC when no external power source is available. The battery is durable and long lasting, but should not be exposed to extreme temperatures, high voltages, chemi-cals or other hazards.The Lithium ion battery operating time may become shorter if it is used under the following conditions:■When used at temperatures lower than 41° F (5° C) or higher than 95° F (35° C). Extreme temperatures not only reduce charging efficiency, but can also cause battery deterioration. The Charging icon on the Status Indicator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range. See “Battery Charging Indicator” on page 16.■When using a high current device such as a modem, CD-ROM drive, or hard drive, using the AC adapter will conserve your battery life.RECHARGING THE BATTERYIf you want to know the condition of the Lithium ion battery, check the Battery Level indicator located on the Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.The Lithium ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter or Auto/Airline adapter. To recharge the battery make sure the battery that needs to be charged is installed in your Tablet PC and connect the AC orAuto/Airline adapter.There is no memory effect on the Lithium ion battery, therefore you do not need to discharge the battery completely before recharging. The charge times will be longer if your Tablet PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your Tablet PC into Standby mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. See “Power Management” on page 36.Low Battery StateWhen the battery is running low, your Tablet PC will beep every 15 seconds and the Battery Level indicator will flash. If you do not respond to the low battery alarm, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens there will be a multiple beep alarm and the Battery Level indicator will show a dead battery. Your Tablet PC will then go into Standby mode to try and protect your data for as long as possible. There is no guarantee that your data will not be lost once the Tablet PC reaches this point.■Do not leave a faulty battery in your Tablet PC. It may damage your AC adapter, optional Auto/Airline adapter, another battery or your Tablet PC itself. It may also prevent operation of your Tablet PC by draining all available cur-rent into the bad battery.■Under federal, state, or local law it may be illegal to dispose of batteries by putting them in the trash. Please take care of our environment and dispose of batteries properly. Check with your local government authority for details regarding recycling or disposing of old batteries. If you cannot find this infor-mation elsewhere, contact your support representative at 1-800-8Fujitsu.Actual battery life will vary based on screen brightness, applications, features, power management settings, battery condition and other customer preferences.CD-ROM drive or hard drive usage may also have a significant impact on battery life. The battery charging capacity is reduced as the battery ages. If your battery is running low quickly, you should replace it with a new one.Make sure that the Battery Charging indicator and the percentage charge is shown inside the Battery Level icon on the Status Indicator Panel.Using heavy current devices such as a modem or frequent CD-ROM and PCMCIA powered external device accesses may prevent charging completely.■You may not be able to hear the alarm if the volume control is set too low or is turned off by the hardware or software. However, you will be able to see the Battery Level indicator flash. Once the low battery alarm occurs you must save all your data and put your Tablet PC into Standby mode until you can provide a new power source. You should provide a charged battery or AC or Auto/Airline Adapter as soon as possible. ■When you are in Standby mode there must always be at least one power source active. If you remove all power sources while your Tablet PC is in Standby mode, any data that has not been saved to the hard drive will be lost.T Series.book  Page 41  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM
42LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section FourDead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indi-cator just like the normal Standby mode. Once your Tablet PC goes into Dead Battery Suspend mode youwill be unable to resume operation until you providea source of power either from an adapter, or a charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will need to press the Suspend/Resume button to resume operation. In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data can be maintained for some time, but if a power source is not provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data that was not stored. Once you provide power, you can continue to use your Tablet PC while an adapter is charging the battery.Shorted BatteriesThe Status Indicator panel uses a symbol inside the battery outline of the Battery Level indicator to display the operating level available in that battery. (See figure  on page 15) If this display shows a Shorted Battery, it means that the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it does not damage any other parts of your Tabl e t PC .REPLACING THE BATTERY Your LifeBook T Series Tablet PC comes with one battery pack; you might want to consider purchasing a spare. By keeping a spare battery fully charged, you can immediately swap with one that is not charged. There are two ways to swap batteries: cold-swapping and warm-swapping. Cold-swapping means swapping batteries when the system has been powered down; warm-swapping is performed when the system is in Standby mode. Cold-swapping batteriesTo cold-swap batteries in your battery compartment, follow these easy steps: (Figure 4-1)1. Have a charged battery ready to install.2. Shut down your notebook and disconnectthe AC adapter.3. Press the battery release latches to open the compartment.4. Remove the battery from the compartment.5.

(See Figure 2-7 on page 13 for location)It is important to keep in mind that while carrying out this form of communication, both devices must be placed so their infrared ports are directly facing each other without obstruction. The devices must also be separated by at least 6" but no more than 36" for maximum performance. The following conditions may interfere with infrared communications:■A television, radio remote control unit, or a wireless headphone is being used nearby.■Direct sunlight, fluorescent light, or incandescent light shines directly on the port.The internal modem is not intended for use with Digital PBX systems. Do not connect the internal modem to a Digital PBX as it may cause serious damage to the internal modem or your entire LifeBook T Series Tablet PC. Consult your PBX manufacturer’s documentation for details. Some hotels have Digital PBX systems. Be sure to find out BEFORE you connect your modem.■The internal modem is designed to the ITU V.90 standard. Its maximum speed of 53000 bps is the highest allowed by FCC, and its actual connection rate depends on the line conditions. The maximum speed is 33600 bps at upload. ■The internal modem on all LifeBook T Series Tablet PC’s from Fujitsu PC Corporation are certified for use in the United States and Canada.■Depending upon the configuration of your system, your LifeBook Tablet PC may have either a LAN jack or an IEEE 1394 jack.Note that the optional Port Replicator is designed to cover the LAN jack located on the system. This design ensures that the LAN jack on the Port Replicator is the only one used when the Port Replicator is installed.T Series.book  Page 48  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM

The internal modem operation is controlled by generic AT commands from the operating system and application software. The standard long form result codes may, in some cases, be displayed on your screen to keep you informed of the actions of your modem. The operating system and application software may suppress display of the result codes. Examples of result codes are:■OK■NO CARRIER■NO DIALTONE■CONNECT 53000 (Connection complete at 53,000 bps.)■ERROR■FAX■RING (This means an incoming call.)■BUSY■NO ANSWERWhen using the internal modem with applications that are not factory installed refer to the application documentation.T Series.book  Page 62  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM
63TroubleshootingRestoring Your Pre-installed SoftwareThe Drivers and Applications Restore (DAR) CD contains:■Sets of device drivers and Fujitsu utilities (in specific directories) that are unique to your LifeBook note-book configuration for use as documented below.■A link to the Drive Image Special Edition (DISE) utility on your hard disk drive.■Read-me files that provide additional use information for items on this CD-ROM.DRIVE IMAGE SPECIAL EDITION (DISE)PowerQuest Drive Image Special Edition (DISE) provides a way to restore your computer if you experi-ence a hard disk crash or other system failure. Fujitsu has used DISE to create an image of everything installed on the computer at the time you purchased it. The image is saved on a separate partition on the hard disk. You can use DISE to restore the factory image and return your computer to the state in which it was shipped from Fujitsu.Although it is not necessary, you can use DISE to store additional image files you create. For example, if you install several applications and save data files on your hard disk, you can create a new image that includes them and then save that image file on the hard disk. Then, in the event of a hard disk failure, you can restore the image that includes the applications and data files you use.Creating a Backup ImageYou can create a system backup image of your C:\ drive at any time. The C:\ partition must be a FAT, FAT32, or NTFS partition, and it must be directly before the backup partition on your hard disk.There are two ways to implement the DISE utility: when booting up the system, or from the desktop. Creating a backup image when booting upBefore creating an image at boot-up, you must first change the boot-up priority in the BIOS so that the system will go to the media drive first, rather than trying to boot-up from the hard drive or an external floppy disk drive.To  c ha ng e  th e b oo t - u p p r i or i t y :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 and press [Enter].4. Arrow down to the CD-ROM drive in the list, and press the space bar (or the + key) to move the CD-ROM drive to the top of the list. (The system attempts to boot from the devices in the order in which they are listed.)5. 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 create a backup image when you are booting up:1. Install the DAR CD in the drive prior to booting up. When bootup begins, a message appears informing you that if you proceed, you will be able to: ■Create a new backup of drive C■Restore a previous backup, or,■Restore the original factory image. Note that creating a new backup will overwrite any previous backups, and restoring a backup or factory image will overwrite all information on the hard drive, including saved files. ■In order to install applications and/or drivers from the DAR CD, you will need to connect an external CD drive to your system.■If the DAR CD is in the drive when you boot up the system, and the Boot Sequence is set in the BIOS to boot from the CD drive first (see “Creating a backup image when booting up” on page 63), a message will appear informing you that if you proceed, you will have a choice of: creating a new backup of drive C:, restor-ing a previous backup, or restoring the original factory image. Note that creating a new backup will overwrite any previous backups, and restoring a backup or factory image will overwrite all information on the hard drive, including saved files. If you wish to install drivers or applications only from the CD, remove the disk from the drive, reboot the system, and insert the CD after Windows has started.If you have access to the internet, visit the Fujitsu Support web site at www.fujitsupc.com to check for the most current information, drivers and hints on how to perform recovery and system updates.Using the DISE feature will reduce the amount of usable disk space on your hard disk drive.T Series.book  Page 63  Thursday, July 31, 2003  10:49 AM
64LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section Four2. After you click [Y]es. You will be presented with two options: [Create New Backup] and [Restore Backup].After you click [Create New Backup], follow the on-screen instructions. By selecting [Create New Backup], a new image will be written to your backup partition. This will overwrite any previously created image. Creating a backup image from the desktopTo create a backup image from the desktop, select Drive Image SE from the Program list. You will initially be prompted to create a backup diskette. It is not necessary to create the backup diskette, since the DAR CD performs the same function.1. At the Drive Image Special Edition main screen, click Options> Create New Backup. DISE displays a warning that it must go to DOS to create the image.2. Click Ye s .DISE creates an image file in the backup partition. If you created a backup image previously, the new image overwrites the old one.Enlarging the Backup PartitionIf there is not enough unused space in the backup parti-tion on your hard disk, DISE will resize the partition. DISE will display the minimum, maximum, and recom-mended sizes for the backup partition. You choose the size you want.DISE takes the space from the FAT, FAT32, or NTFS partition that you are backing up. If there is not enough unused space in that partition to take, you will not be able to resize the backup partition and create an image file. You can delete files from the FAT, FAT32, or NTFS partition to create more unused space on the hard disk.Restoring a Backup ImageYou can restore either a factory image or a backup image you created. Be aware that restoring a backup image will replace the contents of the C:\ partition with the image you restore.1. Disable virus protection software. If virus protection software is enabled, DISE will lock up.2. From the DISE main window, click Options > Restore Backup to restore an image you created, or click Options > Restore Factory Backup to restore the factory image.DISE shuts down to DOS and restores the image file.Re-Installing Individual Drivers and Applications The Drivers and Application CD can be used to selec-tively re-install drivers and/or applications that may have been un-installed or corrupted. To re-install drivers and/or applications:1. Boot up the system and insert the DAR CD after Windows has started. A Fujitsu Welcome screen is displayed after the CD is inserted.2. From the left frame of the Welcome screen, “System Components” and “3rd Party Applications” can be selected. System Components are those drivers and utilities that have been developed by Fujitsu; 3rd Party Applications are applications developed by other vendors.Installing System Components1. To install system components, click on “System Components” in the left frame of the Welcome screen. A list of utilities and drivers will be displayed. Select one or more items from the list, or click [Select All] to select all items in the list. (To de-select your choices, click the [Clear All] button.2. Click [Install Selected Subsystems] to install the selected items.Installing 3rd Party Applications1.

68LifeBook T Series Tablet PC - Section SIxKEYBOARDCaring for your KeyboardThe keyboard of your computer is a very sensitive instrument. It is made up of many switches that are activated when you press on the keys. The keyboard is a major component of the heat dissipation system in a Tablet PC. Due to heat and size considerations the keyboard is not sealed. Because the keys are so close together, it is not easy for the user to see when liquids have fallen onto the circuitry below the keys. Attempting to clean the keyboard with a spray on cleaner or rag soaked with cleaner the liquid can drip onto the circuitry sight unseen. Once the liquid seeps between the layers of circuitry, it can cause corrosion or other damage to the circuits. This can result in keys which no longer operate, or which, when pressed, record the wrong characters and other similar failures.There is no repair for this problem other than replace-ment. The solution is to become aware of the issue and take appropriate steps to protect your keyboard. To clean the keyboard, use a rag dampened slightly with cleaning solution. Use extreme care to prevent liquid from dripping between the keys. Spraying directly on the keys should be avoided. The spray should be applied first to the cloth, and then the cloth wiped over the keys.BATTERIESCaring for your Batteries■Always handle batteries carefully.■Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals with a metal object). Do not carry lose batteries in a pocket or purse where they may mix with coins, keys, or other metal objects. Doing so may cause an explosion or fire.■Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate or incin-erate the battery.■Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and only in ventilated areas.■Do not leave batteries in hot locations for more than a day or two. Intense heat can shorten battery life.■Do not leave a battery in storage for longer than 6 months without recharging it.Increasing Battery Life■Keep brightness to the lowest comfortable level.■Set the power management for maximum battery life.■Put your Tablet PC in Standby mode when it is turned on and you are not actually using it.■Limit your CD-ROM access.■Disable the Windows CD auto insert function.■Always use fully charged batteries.■Eject PCMCIA cards when not in use.OPTIONAL FLOPPY DISK DRIVE AND FLOPPY DISKSCaring for your Floppy Disks■Avoid using the floppy disks in damp anddusty locations.■Never store a floppy disk near a magnet or magnetic field.■Do not use a pencil or an eraser on a disk or disk label.■Avoid storing the floppy disks in extremely hot or cold locations, or in locations subject to severe temperature changes.
