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.
26
- 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.

COVER A SCRATCHED SCREEN.
•WHILE WRITING, DO NOT TO SCRATCH THE SURFACE OF THE DISPLAY (E.G., WITH A WRISTWATCH OR BRACELET).
THE PEN OF YOUR TABLET PC IS AN ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENT WHICH CAN BE DAMAGED IF USED INCORRECTLY.
HANDLE THE PEN WITH CARE. THE FOLLOWING LIST CONTAINS GUIDELINES FOR PROPER PEN HANDLING:
•DO NOT GESTURE WITH THE PEN OR USE IT AS A POINTER.
•NEVER USE THE PEN ON ANY OTHER SURFACE THAN THE SCREEN OF YOUR TABLET PC.
•DO NOT TRY TO TURN THE THUMB GRIP ON THE PEN.
•NEVER STORE THE PEN WITH THE TIP BEARING THE WEIGHT OF THE PEN. IF THE PEN IS STORED WITH THE TIP
POINTING DOWN, THIS MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE PEN MECHANISM (PARTICULARLY UNDER HIGH
TEMPERATURES). IN THIS CASE THE PEN TIP MAY REACT AS THOUGH IT IS CONSTANTLY BEING PRESSED DOWN.
•THE PEN CAN BE INFLUENCED BY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS (CURSOR QUIVERS OR JUMPS). THERE MAY BE A FEW
AREAS ON THE SCREEN WHERE THE CURSOR QUIVERS SLIGHTLY IN SPITE OF PRESSING THE PEN DOWN FIRMLY.

38
- 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 64. 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.
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. See “Power On Self Test Messages” on page 64.

- 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.
44
- Power Management
•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.
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.
•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.

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 43
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.
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.
USING HEAVY CURRENT DEVICES OR FREQUENT EXTERNAL OPTICAL DRIVE ACCESSES MAY PREVENT
CHARGING COMPLETELY.
•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.

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. 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 and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.
Export restrictions
This product or software contains encryption code which may not be exported or transferred from the US or Canada without

Before Using the Optional Wireless LAN
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.
Figure 23. Ad Hoc Mode Network
89
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).

Before Using the Optional Wireless LAN
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.

Appendix B: Fingerprint Sensor Device
Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Your system has a fingerprint sensor device at the bottom left below the display screen.
Figure 26. Fingerprint sensor
With a fingerprint sensor, you can avoid having to enter a username and password every time you want to:
•Log onto Windows
•Resume from sleep mode
•Cancel a password-protected screen saver
•Log into home pages that require a username and password
Fingerprint Sensor Device
100
- 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.
Installing OmniPass
If OmniPass has already been installed on your system, skip this section and go directly to “User
Enrollment” on page 102. You can determine whether OmniPass has already been installed by checking
to see if the following are present:
•The gold key-shaped OmniPass icon in the system tray at the bottom right of the screen.
•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 Professional operating system or later
101
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
•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 102. Otherwise
continue with this section on software installation.
To install OmniPass on your system you must:
1Insert 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.
2Follow the directions provided in the OmniPass installation program. Specify a location to which you would like
OmniPass installed. It is recommended that you NOT install OmniPass in the root directory (e.g. C:\).
3Once 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.
4The installation program automatically places an icon (Softex OmniPass) in the Windows Control Panel as well
as a golden key shaped icon in the taskbar.
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:
1From the Windows Desktop, double-click the key-shaped OmniPass icon in the taskbar (usually located in the
lower right corner of the screen),
or,
•INSTALLATION OF THE APPLICATION REQUIRES THAT YOU HAVE AN EXTERNAL OPTICAL DRIVE ATTACHED TO
YOUR SYSTEM.
•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 WITH AN ADMINISTRATOR USER BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH OMNIPASS INSTALLATION.
102
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Click the Start button, select Settings, and click Control Panel. 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.
2Select the About tab at the top of the OmniPass Control Center. The About tab window appears with version

3Select OmniPass, and then click Change/Remove.
4Follow the directions to uninstall the OmniPass application.
5Once 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
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 WITH AN ADMINISTRATOR USER BEFORE
PROCEEDING WITH OMNIPASS UNINSTALLATION.
103
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
Basic Enrollment
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.
104
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 104 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.
105
- 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.
106
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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.
107
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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.
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.
108
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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.
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.
109
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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
110
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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".
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 109.
WHEN YOU DELETE AN IDENTITY, ALL OF ITS ASSOCIATED REMEMBERED SITES AND PASSWORD
PROTECTED DIALOGS ARE LOST.
111
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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.
YOU CANNOT IMPORT A USER INTO OMNIPASS IF THERE ALREADY IS A USER WITH THE SAME NAME
ENROLLED IN OMNIPASS.
•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.
112
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 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.
113
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 111.
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 102.
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.
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.
114
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
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.
115
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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

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
116
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
