Recycling your battery
Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time; this is a natural occurrence for all batteries.
When this occurs, you may want to replace the battery with a fresh one*. If you replace it, it is important that you dispose of the old battery properly because
batteries contain materials that could cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly.
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation
(RBRC)**, a non-profit public service organization dedicated to protecting our environment by recycling old batteries at no cost to you.
RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout the United States and Canada. To find the location nearest you, go
to www.RBRC.org or call 1-800-822-8837.
If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative website (http://EIAE.org/)
and search for a convenient disposal location.
Remember – protecting the environment is a cooperative effort, and you should make every effort to protect it for current and future generations.
* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site at www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or
www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks in Canada.
** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery recycling; RBRC is in no way affiliated with Fujitsu.

- Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
Using the Capacitive Touchscreen
Certain configurations of this Tablet PC have an optional dual digitizer that allows you to use either the stylus or your
finger(s) as a pointing device. This type of display also allows you to use “gestures” to perform such actions as scroll,
zoom, and rotate.
Right-clicking the touchscreen
To perform a right-click action using two fingers, press the first finger at the location you want to perform a right-click,
then quickly tap and release the second finger on the screen.
Gesture Mode
To initiate gesture mode, two fingers must touch the screen within 200 ms of each other. If the second finger touches
the screen after 200 ms has elapsed, the second finger is ignored. If more than two fingers touch the screen in that
time, Advanced Gesture Mode is activated instead. When Gesture Mode is activated, no cursor movement is sent to
the system.
When both fingers are removed, Gesture mode ends. When a third finger is added, gesture mode ends and Advanced
gesture mode is activated. Note that if a gesture can’t be recognized, no action is taken. In that case, remove both
fingers from the screen and try again.
Scrolling Gesture
To scroll through long documents or on a web page, place both fingers on the screen (one finger quickly followed by
the second). If at least one finger has moved at least 3 mm, a scroll is considered. If both fingers are moving in the
same direction and parallel (given a tolerance of 5 mm), Scroll Mode is activated. If one finger is stationary, it is not
considered a scroll. If either finger is lifted, Scroll Mode is canceled.
Zoom Gesture
The zoom gesture is especially helpful when viewing pictures. To zoom in, place two fingers on the item you want to
enlarge (one finger quickly followed by the second), then spread them away from each other.
•GESTURE SUPPORT IS DETERMINED BY THE APPLICATION IN USE.
•THE STYLUS TAKES PRECEDENCE OVER FINGER TOUCH. IF THE STYLUS IS WITHIN ACTIVE RANGE OF THE SCREEN, FINGER TOUCH WILL BE DISABLED.
•WHEN ONE FINGER IS USED ON THE TOUCHSCREEN, IT BEHAVES IN THE SAME MANNER AS A STYLUS.
31
- Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
If at least one finger has moved at least 10 mm, a zoom event is considered. If the distance between the fingers has
changed by at least 10 mm, and both fingers have stayed on approximately the same line, Zoom Mode is entered. If
either finger strays more than 10 mm from the "zoom line" created when the fingers first made contact, the zoom is
canceled.
To zoom out, place two fingers on the item you want to reduce (one finger quickly followed by the second), then move
them towards each other.
Rotate Gesture
To change the orientation of an object on the screen, place two fingers on the image you want to rotate (one finger
quickly followed by the second), then move them in opposite directions (as if you were turning a knob). The direction
the item turns is dependant upon the direction you move your fingers.
If at least one finger moves at least 12 mm, a rotate is considered. If one finger is stationary (moving less than 5 mm
in any direction), and the other is moving, a rotate is considered. If the fingers begin moving in the same direction,
the rotation is canceled. If the distance between the fingers changes by more than 10 mm, the rotation is canceled.
Accessing the OnScreen TouchPad
Your tablet has a handy on-screen touchpad that offers a variety of helpful functions. Features of the OnScreen
TouchPad include:
•Virtual Mouse Emulator: The Virtual Mouse Emulator works in much the same manner as a hardware mouse.
With the virtual mouse, you can scroll, drag, and click, as well as perform [Ctl]+[Click] and [Shift]+[Click]
actions.
•Application Launch/Key Macro: This window provides access to five pages, each of which can contain up to
twenty buttons. Each button can be programmed to open an application, a folder, document, or key (such as
[Esc], [ Alt+X] and [Page Up]).
•Digital Keyboard: This window provides a soft keyboard for use in mathematical procedures. It works in much
the same way as the Windows standard calculator.
To access the OnScreen TouchPad, go to the Start Menu > All Programs > Fujitsu OnScreen TouchPad. To learn more
about the utility, click on Usage and Help.

- Starting Your STYLISTIC Tablet PC
When you power on your STYLISTIC, it will perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to check the internal parts and
configuration for correct functionality. If a fault is found, your STYLISTIC Tablet PC will emit an audio warning and/or
an error message will be displayed. See “Power On Self Test Messages” on page 62. Depending on the nature of the
problem, you may be able to continue by starting the operating system or by entering the BIOS setup utility and
revising the settings.
After satisfactory completion of the POST, your Tablet PC will load your operating system.
Boot Sequence
The procedure for starting-up your Tablet PC is termed the Bootup sequence and involves your Tablet PC’s BIOS. When
your STYLISTIC Tablet PC is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start
up your Tablet PC. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your Tablet PC, it goes
through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating system is loaded. During booting, your
Tablet PC is performing a standard boot sequence including a Power On Self Test (POST). When the boot sequence is
completed without a failure and without a request for the BIOS Setup Utility, the system displays the operating
system’s opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
•You turn on the power to your STYLISTIC Tablet PC.
•You restart your Tablet PC from the Windows Shut Down dialog box.
•The software initiates a system restart. Example: When you install a new application.
Hard Disk Drive Passwords
To provide additional security for your data, you can assign passwords to your hard disk drive(s). This feature is
managed in the system BIOS Setup Utility. See
BIOS Setup Utility
below for information about accessing the utility.
NEVER TURN OFF YOUR STYLISTIC TABLET PC DURING THE POWER ON SELF TEST (POST) OR IT WILL CAUSE AN ERROR MESSAGE TO BE DISPLAYED
WHEN YOU TURN YOUR STYLISTIC TABLET PC ON THE NEXT TIME.

Booting the System
We strongly recommend that you not attach any external devices until you have gone through the initial power on
sequence.
When you turn on your Tablet PC for the first time, it will display a Fujitsu logo on the screen. If you do nothing the
system will load the operating system, and then the Windows Welcome will begin.
Starting Windows the First Time
After you boot up the system the first time and follow the instructions on the screen, you will eventually come to the
Sign-In screen which prompts you for your user name. After sign-in, it takes less then a minute for the computer to
boot to Windows and during that time a progress bar and interactive messages are displayed on the screen.
During the course of the first start up, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs) for
Microsoft and Fujitsu.
Following first boot, you will arrive at the Modern start screen. Some useful shortcuts for your reference: Press the
Windows + D key to go to traditional Windows desktop. Press Windows + M key to load the traditional Windows
desktop and minimize all applications.
Installing Bonus Apps
After you have started your system the first time, you will see a Bonus Apps icon on your desktop. Click on
the icon to see which additional applications are available for you to install. Alternatively, you can access
Bonus Apps by opening the Charms panel from Modern Start screen and searching for "Bonus Apps". Applications that
are already installed appear in grey; those that are available for installation appear in blue.
Select the applications you wish to install by selecting the checkbox adjacent to your selection, or click [Select All] if
you would like to install all available applications. Once you have made your selections, click [Install].
YOU CANNOT USE YOUR NOTEBOOK UNTIL YOU HAVE ACCEPTED THE LICENSE AGREEMENT. IF YOU STOP THE PROCESS YOUR NOTEBOOK WILL RETURN

- Power Management
Power Management
Your Fujitsu STYLISTIC Tablet PC has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features
are automatic and need no user intervention. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your
operating conditions, such as those for the display brightness. 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 battery from running down as quickly. For example, you can create an appropriate power saving profile, put your
Tablet PC into Sleep 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.
Power/Suspend/Resume Switch
When your Tablet PC is active, the Power/Suspend/Resume switch can be used to manually put the Tablet PC into Sleep
mode. Push the Power/Suspend/Resume switch when the Tablet PC is active, but not actively accessing anything, and
immediately release the button.
If your Tablet PC is suspended, pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume switch returns it to active operation. You can tell
whether the system is Suspended by looking at the Power indicator. If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your
Tablet PC is fully operational. If the indicator is visible
and
flashing, the Tablet PC is in Sleep mode. If the indicator is
not visible, the power is off or your Tablet PC is in Hibernation mode.
Sleep Mode
Sleep mode in Windows saves the contents of your system memory during periods of inactivity by maintaining power
to critical parts. This mode turns off the CPU, display, hard drive, and all other internal components except those
necessary to maintain system memory and for restarting.
Your Tablet PC can be put in sleep mode by:
•Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume switch when your system is turned on.
•Selecting “Sleep” after clicking [Start] then clicking the small arrow at the bottom right of the window.
•Timing out from lack of activity.
•Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warning condition.
45
- Power Management
Your Tablet PC’s system memory typically stores the file on which you are working, open application information, and
any other data required to support operations in progress. When you resume operation from Sleep mode, your Tablet
PC will return to the point where it left off. You must use the Power/Suspend/Resume switch to resume operation, and
there must be an adequate power source available, or your Tablet PC will not resume.
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) Feature
The Hibernation feature saves the contents of your notebook’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the
Power/Suspend/Resume mode. You can enable or disable this feature.
Enable or Disable the Hibernation Feature
The default settings are not enabled. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature, follow these steps:
1From the Modern Start screen, press [Windows]+[X]. Select Control Panel from the menu, then select Power
Options.
2Select Choose what the power button does or Choose what closing the lid does, then make your selection (Do
Nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut Down).
Windows Power Management
The Power Options icon in the Control Panel allows you to configure some of the power management settings. For
example, you can use Power Options to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you
are running the notebook on battery or one of the adapters.
•IF RUNNING YOUR TABLET PC ON BATTERY POWER, BE AWARE THAT THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO DISCHARGE WHILE YOUR TABLET PC IS IN SLEEP
MODE, THOUGH NOT AS QUICKLY AS WHEN FULLY OPERATIONAL.
•DISABLING THE POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME SWITCH PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USED TO PUT THE TABLET PC INTO SLEEP OR HIBERNATION MODE.
THE BUTTON RESUME FUNCTION CANNOT BE DISABLED.
•IF YOUR TABLET PC IS ACTIVELY ACCESSING INFORMATION WHEN YOU ENTER THE SLEEP OR HIBERNATION MODE, CHANGES TO OPEN FILES ARE NOT
LOST. THE FILES ARE LEFT OPEN AND MEMORY IS KEPT ACTIVE DURING SLEEP MODE OR THE MEMORY IS TRANSFERRED TO THE INTERNAL HARD
DRIVE DURING HIBERNATION MODE.
•THE MAIN ADVANTAGE OF USING HIBERNATION IS THAT POWER IS NOT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN YOUR DATA. THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IF
YOU WILL BE LEAVING YOUR TABLET PC IN A SUSPENDED STATE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME. THE DRAWBACK OF USING HIBERNATION MODE
IS THAT IT LENGTHENS THE POWER DOWN AND POWER UP SEQUENCES AND RESETS PERIPHERAL DEVICES.

Restarting the System
If your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure.
1From the Modern Start screen, open Charms ([Windows]+C) or mouse over [-] in the bottom right corner of the
screen). Click [Settings]->[Power].
2Select Restart from the list.
Powering Off
Before turning off the power, check that the hard drive/optical drive access indicator is off. If you turn off the power
while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your notebook shuts down without error, use the
Windows shutdown procedure.
Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your notebook to complete its operations and turn off
power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
From the Modern Start screen, open Charms ([Windows]+C) or mouse over [-] in the bottom right corner of the
screen), click [Settings]->[Power]. Select Shut down from the list.
TURNING OFF YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK WITHOUT EXITING WINDOWS OR TURNING ON YOUR NOTEBOOK WITHIN 10 SECONDS OF THE NOTEBOOK

User-Installable Features
Lithium Polymer Battery
Your STYLISTIC Tablet PC has a Lithium Polymer 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, chemicals or other hazards.
The Lithium Polymer battery operating time may become shorter if it is used under the following conditions:
•When used at temperatures that exceed a low of 5°C or a high of 35°C (41° to 95° F). 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.
•When using a high current device such as an external optical drive or the hard drive, using the AC adapter will
conserve your battery life.
DO NOT LEAVE A FAULTY BATTERY IN YOUR TABLET PC. IT MAY DAMAGE YOUR AC ADAPTER, OPTIONAL AUTO/AIRLINE ADAPTER, OR YOUR TABLET PC
ITSELF. IT MAY ALSO PREVENT OPERATION OF YOUR TABLET PC BY DRAINING ALL AVAILABLE CURRENT INTO THE BAD BATTERY.
48
- Lithium Polymer Battery
Recharging the Batteries
If you want to know the condition of the primary Lithium Polymer battery, check the Battery Level indicator located
on the Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.
The Lithium Polymer 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 STYLISTIC Tablet PC and connect the AC or
Auto/Airline adapter.
There is no memory effect on the Lithium Polymer battery therefore you do not need to discharge the battery
completely before recharging. The charge times will be significantly 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 Sleep mode, or turn it off while the
adapter is charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 44 for more information on Sleep mode and shutdown
procedure)
•ACTUAL BATTERY LIFE WILL VARY BASED ON SCREEN BRIGHTNESS, APPLICATIONS, FEATURES, POWER MANAGEMENT SETTINGS, BATTERY CONDITION
AND OTHER CUSTOMER PREFERENCES. 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.
•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 INFORMATION ELSEWHERE, CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT REPRESENTATIVE AT 1-800-
8FUJITSU (1-800-838-5487)
MAKE SURE THAT THE PERCENTAGE CHARGE IS INDICATED BY THE BATTERY CHARGING INDICATOR ON THE STATUS INDICATOR PANEL.
USING HEAVY CURRENT DEVICES OR FREQUENT EXTERNAL OPTICAL DRIVE ACCESSES MAY PREVENT CHARGING COMPLETELY.
49
- Lithium Polymer Battery
Low Battery State
When the battery is running low, a low battery notification message will appear. If you do not respond to the low
battery message, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens, your
Tablet PC will go into Sleep mode. There is no guarantee that your data will be saved once the Tablet PC reaches this
point.
Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Sleep mode. Once your Tablet PC goes
into Dead Battery Suspend mode you will be unable to resume operation until you provide a source of power either
from an adapter, or a charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will need to press the
Power/Suspend/Resume switch 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 Batteries
The Status Indicator panel indicator associated with the Battery Level indicator displays the operating level available
in that battery. If this display shows a flashing red LED, it means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it
does not damage other parts of your STYLISTIC Tablet PC.
Replacing the Battery
With the purchase of an additional battery, you can have a fully charged spare to swap with one that is not charged.
There are two ways to swap batteries, cold-swapping and hot-swapping:
•ONCE THE LOW BATTERY NOTIFICATION MESSAGE APPEARS, YOU NEED TO SAVE ALL YOUR ACTIVE DATA AND PUT YOUR TABLET PC INTO SLEEP
MODE UNTIL YOU CAN PROVIDE A NEW POWER SOURCE. YOU SHOULD PROVIDE A CHARGED BATTERY, AN AC POWER ADAPTER, OR AUTO/AIRLINE
ADAPTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
• WHEN YOU ARE IN SLEEP MODE THERE MUST ALWAYS BE AT LEAST ONE POWER SOURCE ACTIVE. IF YOU REMOVE ALL POWER SOURCES WHILE
YOUR STYLISTIC TABLET PC IS IN SLEEP MODE, ANY DATA THAT HAS NOT BEEN SAVED TO THE HARD DRIVE WILL BE LOST.
50
- Lithium Polymer Battery
Cold-swapping Batteries
To cold-swap batteries in your battery bay, follow these easy steps:
1Have a charged battery ready to install.
2Perform one of the following two steps:
•Click the Fujitsu Battery Swap Utility icon on the desktop. Follow the instructions that appear to put the system
into Hibernate mode. Using this procedure saves your data and the system powers down. It is then safe to swap
the batteries.
•Save your data, then power down the system. It is then safe to swap the batteries.
3Note that the battery latch on the left is spring loaded, while the latch on the right is not. Unlock the battery by
first pushing the right latch backwards, then pushing and holding the left latch (Figure 19). While holding the left
latch, lift the battery out at the lift point (Figure 20).
4To install a battery, first verify that the right latch is pushed back. While pushing the left latch back and holding

IF THE LITHIUM POLYMER BATTERY CONNECTOR IS NOT FULLY SEATED, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO USE YOUR TABLET PC OR CHARGE YOUR BATTERY.
52
- Secure Digital Cards
Secure Digital Cards
Your STYLISTIC Tablet PC supports Secure Digital (SD) 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. Note that SD and SDHC Cards are supported, but SDXC Cards are not.
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.
Installing SD Cards
When holding the Tablet PC in horizontal position with the front facing you and the web camera on the left, the SD
Card slot is located at the top left edge of the system, in the rear (Figures 21 and 22). To install an SD Card, follow

Restoring Your System Image and Software
It is very important that you create DVD copies of your Factory Image and Bootable Disc before beginning to use
your system. To do so, follow the instructions in the “Saving Your Factory Image” and “Creating Backup Images
of Factory Image and Discs” sections of this chapter.
Saving and Recovering Your Factory and System Images
Along with instructions on saving your Factory Image, this document outlines several other important procedures,
such as making a system image, restoring your Factory Image and system images, managing your images, and
restoring the partitions on a hard drive.
Saving your Factory Image
When you purchased your new system, a copy of the pre-installed Factory Image was loaded into a hidden partition
on your hard disk drive. Having a copy of the original Factory Image available to you means that in the event of system
failure, you will be able to restore it to its original state.
•IN ORDER TO MAKE COPIES OF FACTORY AND SYSTEM IMAGES AND BURN BOOTABLE DISCS YOU MUST HAVE AN INTERNAL OR EXTERNALLY
CONNECTED WRITABLE DVD DRIVE.
•IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU COPY YOUR FACTORY IMAGE TO REMOVABLE MEDIA (E.G., DVD DISCS). FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT
IN AN INABILITY TO RESTORE THE IMAGE AT A FUTURE DATE.
•WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE DVD-R OR DVD+R DISCS FOR YOUR BACKUP, BUT SUPPORTED MEDIA* FOR IMAGE BACKUPS INCLUDE:
FOR FACTORY IMAGE, APPLICATION DATA, AND BOOTABLE DISC: DVD-R/+R.
FOR USER-CREATED BACKUP IMAGE: DVD-R/+R, DVD-RW/+RW, DVD-DL.
* DEPENDING UPON YOUR OPTICAL DRIVE AND MEDIA FORMAT USED, SOME MEDIA TYPES MAY BE INCOMPATIBLE FOR CREATING IMAGE BACKUPS.
DUE TO CERTAIN LICENSING REQUIREMENTS, SOME THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS WILL NEED TO BE INSTALLED SEPARATELY.
64
- Restoring Your System Image and Software
To make a copy of the Factory Image to DVD discs, you will need four or five blank discs (DVD-R or DVD+R discs are
recommended) to create the copy. After creating the copy, be sure to label the discs and keep them in a safe place to
ensure they do not get damaged.

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.
In cases in which the policy regarding use of Wireless LAN 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.

FCC/IC 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. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (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 additional research.
The wireless LAN radio device has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equipment

Wireless LAN Modes Using this Device
Ad Hoc Mode
"Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity between multiple
computers is established without a central wireless network device, typically known as Access Point(s). Connectivity
is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peer fashion. That is why Ad Hoc networks are also known as
peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hoc networks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity
between multiple computers. Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryption key
settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network.

93
- Before Using the Optional Wireless LAN
Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode
Infrastructure mode refers to a wireless network architecture in which devices communicate with wireless or wired
network devices by communicating through an Access Point. In infrastructure mode, wireless devices can
communicate with each other or with a wired network. Corporate wireless networks operate in infrastructure mode
because they require access to the WLAN in order to access services, devices, and computers (e.g., file servers,
printers, databases).

How to Handle This Device
The WLAN device is an optional device that may come pre-installed in your mobile computer. Under normal
circumstances, it should not be necessary for you to remove or re-install it. The operating system that your mobile
computer comes with has been pre-configured to support the WLAN device.
•The Wireless LAN devices support IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11n.
•The WLAN devices operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and the 5 GHz lower, middle, and upper UNII bands.
•Microwave ovens may interfere with the operation of WLAN devices since they operate in the same 2.4 GHz
frequency range as IEEE802.11b/g/n devices. Interference by microwaves does not occur with IEEE802.11a
radio which operates in the 5 GHz RF band.
•Wireless devices that transmit in the 2.4 GHz range may interfere with operation of WLAN devices in
IEEE802.11b/g/n modes. Symptoms of interference include reduced throughput, intermittent disconnects, and
many frame errors. It is HIGHLY recommended that these interfering devices be powered off to ensure proper
operation of the WLAN device.
Deactivating/Disconnecting the WLAN Device
Disconnecting the WLAN device may be desired in certain circumstances (to extend battery life) or where certain
environments require it (i.e. hospitals, clinics, airplanes, etc.). The WLAN device can be deactivated by using the
Wireless On/Off Switch, and it can be disconnected in Windows using the WLAN icon in the system tray (Note that
disconnecting via the icon in the system tray does not turn off the radio; it continues to transmit and receive even
though it’s not connected.).

Fingerprint Sensor Device
103
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
After you have “enrolled” - or registered - your fingerprint, you can simply swipe your fingertip over the sensor for the
system 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 interface, through which you can securely manage passwords, 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.

- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 credentials that you have to remember.
During 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 “STYLISTIC”),
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 goes to another computer without he OmniPass
account to access his webmail, he would need to enter his original webmail credentials (“John_02” and “STYLISTIC”)
to gain access. If he attempts his OmniPass user credentials on a system other than a system he’s enrolled on, he will
not gain access.
THE 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 OF THIS DOCUMENT.
107
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Basic Enrollment
The Enrollment Wizard will guide you through the process of enrolling a user. Unless you specified otherwise, 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.
1Click Enroll to proceed to username and password verification. By default, the OmniPass Enrollment Wizard enters
the credentials of the currently logged in Windows user.
2Enter the password you use to log in to Windows. This will become the “master password” for this
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.
3In this step OmniPass captures your fingerprint. Refer to “Enrolling a Fingerprint” on page 107 for additional
information.
4Next, 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.
5Click [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.
108
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
1During 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 will allow you 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].
2It 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 rectangle.
To capture a fingerprint, gently swipe or pull your fingertip over the sensor (starting at the second knuckle)
towards yourself. 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.
3Once OmniPass has successfully acquired the fingerprint, the Verify Fingerprint screen will automatically 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 Verification Successful under the capture window.
Using OmniPass
You are now ready to begin using OmniPass. Used regularly, OmniPass will streamline your authentications.
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.
109
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 sleep or hibernate, when unlocking a password-enabled
screensaver, during password 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 unselected 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 fingerprint
capture window or your master password for the master password prompt (the key icon).
Remembering a Password
OmniPass can remember any application, GUI, or password protected resource with 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 password), 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 the
OmniPass cursor in the login prompt area, but don’t click [Login] or [Submit].
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.
110
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 password 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 procedure. 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 Password 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.
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.
111
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 password
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.
Password Management
OmniPass provides an interface that lets you manage your passwords. To access this GUI, double-click the OmniPass
key in the system tray. Click Vault Management; you will be prompted to authenticate. Once you gain access to Vault
Management, click Manage Passwords 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 Password
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.
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.
112
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 when resetting the Windows password. If your password is reset in Windows, the
next time you login to Windows, OmniPass will detect the password change and prompt you to “Update” or
“Reconfirm” the password with OmniPass. Enter your new Windows password in the prompt and click OK. 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 Management;
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 [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 automatically 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".
WHEN YOU DELETE AN IDENTITY, ALL OF ITS ASSOCIATED REMEMBERED SITES AND PASSWORD PROTECTED DIALOGS ARE LOST.
113
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Choosing User Identity during Login
To choose your identity during login, type your username 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 to login as, then click OK.
Switch User Identity
To switch identities at any time, right-click the OmniPass system tray icon and click Switch User Identity 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 Vault 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 passwords 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 111.
Configuring OmniPass
This section gives an overview of both the Export/Import function and the OmniPass Control Center.
Exporting and Importing Users
Using OmniPass Control Center, you can export and import users in and out of OmniPass. The export process backs
up all remembered sites, credentials, and 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 proper credentials cannot be supplied, the user profile will not be imported.
YOU CANNOT IMPORT A USER INTO OMNIPASS IF THERE ALREADY IS A USER WITH THE SAME NAME ENROLLED IN OMNIPASS.
114
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 authentication,
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.
•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 REMEMBERED SETTINGS AND FINGERPRINTS INSTANTLY.
•YOU DON'T FORGET THE WINDOWS LOGIN CREDENTIALS WHEN EXPORTING. 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.
115
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 credentials
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 system. 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 "Sunshine". 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, provided
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 serves to explain functions within 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 corner
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 113. Add/Remove User functionality is
straightforward.
116
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 106.
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
User Settings tab has three interfaces: Audio Settings, Taskbar Tips, and Enrollment. User settings allow you to
customize OmniPass to suit your preferences. Under User Settings (Audio Settings and Taskbar Tips) you can set
how OmniPass notifies you of OmniPass events (e.g., successful login, access denied, etc.). Details of each setting
under the Audio Settings and Taskbar Tips interfaces are self-explanatory.
The Enrollment interface allows you to enroll fingerprints. For the procedure to enroll and authentication device refer
to
Chapter 2.3
. To enroll additional fingerprints, click Enroll Authentication Device, and authenticate 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.
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’RE SURE YOU WANT TO REMOVE THE USER, WE RECOMMEND YOU EXPORT THE USER PROFILE.
117
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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 security 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 Authenticate 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 procedure 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 passwords 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.
118
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
