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.

Using the Touchpad
The touchpad is built into your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC. It is used to control the movement of the cursor to select items
on your display panel. The touchpad is composed of a cursor control below the center of the keyboard and two buttons
below it. The left button functions the same as a left mouse button while the right button has the same function as
a right mouse button. The actual functionality of the buttons may vary depending on the application that is being
used.

Dragging
Dragging means pressing and holding the left button, while moving the cursor. To drag, move the cursor to the item
you wish to move. Press and hold the left button while moving the item to its new location and then release it.
Dragging can also be done using the Touchpad. First, tap the Touchpad twice over the item you wish to move making
sure to leave your finger on the pad after the final tap. Next, move the object to its new location by moving your finger
across the Touchpad, and then release your finger.
Touchpad Control Adjustment
The Windows Control Panel allows you to customize your touchpad with selections made from within the Mouse
Properties dialog box. There are three aspects of operation which you can adjust:
•Buttons: This tab lets you set up the buttons for right or left handed operation, in addition to setting up the
time interval allowed between clicks in double-clicking.
•IF THE INTERVAL BETWEEN CLICKS IS TOO LONG, THE DOUBLE-CLICK WILL NOT BE EXECUTED.

•Pointers: This tab lets you set up the scheme for the cursor depending on its functionality.
•Pointer Options: This tab lets you set up a relation between the speed of your finger motion and the speed of
the cursor. It also allows you to enable a Pointer Trail for the cursor arrow.
Active Digitizer Display
NOTE: Your system has a capacitive touch panel that
responds to finger touch and gestures. (This configuration
is called a “Dual Digitizer”.) For more information about the
touchscreen, refer to “Using the Capacitive Touchscreen” on
page 42.
The integrated active digitizer allows you to use the included
stylus as a pointing device. You can use the stylus to click,
double-click, right-click, drag items and icons, write text, or to
draw and erase like a pen or pencil in applications that support
this behavior, such as drawing or painting programs. The front
half of the barrel button works the same as a right-click
button. The back half of the barrel button and the eraser
button on the end of the pen both act as erasers. If using the
eraser button, be sure to depress it by pressing it on the display
in order to activate the eraser function.

To run the calibration utility:
1Go to Start -> Control Panel.
2Click Hardware and Sound, then select Tablet PC Settings
3Under the Display tab, click the [Calibrate] button.(Note: If you have the optional capacitive touchscreen, you will
need to click on either Pen input or Touch input, depending upon which method you want to calibrate.)
4Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfortable angle and find the (+) symbol in the upper-left corner of the
display.
Dragging
Dragging means moving an item with the stylus by
touching the screen, moving and then lifting the
stylus. To drag, touch the Active Digitizer Display
with your stylus on the item you wish to move. While
continuing to touch the screen with the stylus, drag
the item to its new location by moving the stylus
across the screen, and then lifting the stylus to

Figure 26. Dragging on the Display
•THE FIRST TIME YOU PERFORM A CALIBRATION, THE SYSTEM DISPLAY SHOULD BE IN LANDSCAPE MODE. SUBSEQUENT CALIBRATIONS CAN BE
PERFORMED IN LANDSCAPE OR PORTRAIT MODE.
•THE FIRST TIME YOU CALIBRATE, THERE WILL BE 16 CALIBRATION POINTS; SUBSEQUENT CALIBRATIONS WILL REQUIRE ONLY FOUR CALIBRATION
POINTS.
42
- Touchpad/Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
5Depending upon whether you are calibrating pen input or touch input, firmly touch the screen with the stylus or
your finger directly on the (+) symbol. Lift the stylus or your finger from the screen and the target will move to a
different location on the screen.
6Repeat step 4 until you have selected all of the (+) symbols.
7Once you have selected all the symbols, press the [OK] button.
8Touch the stylus or your finger to various points on the screen to verify that the screen is correctly calibrated. If you
are not satisfied with the screen’s calibration, press the [Calibrate]) button to begin again.
Using the Capacitive Touchscreen
This Tablet PC has a 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.
General Gesture Mode: One- and Two-Finger Gestures
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.
DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN TAPPING ON THE SCREEN DURING CALIBRATION. USE OF EXCESSIVE FORCE COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE
LED AND/OR TOUCH PANEL.
•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.
43
- Touchpad/Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
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.
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.
44
- Touchpad/Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
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.
Installing a Pen Tether
To prevent dropping or losing your pen, you should attach it
to your system using the pen tether that is included with the
system.
To attach the pen tether to your Tablet PC, perform the
following steps:
1Attach the end of the pen tether with the smaller loop to
your pen. To do so, push the end of the tether through
the hole in the pen, then thread the opposite end of the
tether through the loop.
2Attach the end of the pen tether with the larger loop to
the attachment point on your tablet. To do so, insert the
end of the pen tether through the attachment point,
then feed the pen through the large loop in the tether.

- Volume Control
Volume Control
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has multiple volume controls which interact with each other.
Controlling the Volume
The volume can be controlled in several different ways:
•Volume can be changed or muted from within the Volume Control in the system tray.
•Volume can be controlled using the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons on the button panel
•Volume can be controlled with the F8 and F9 functions keys. Pressing [F8] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will
decrease the volume of your Tablet PC. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of
your Tablet PC.
•Volume can be changed by opening the Control Panel and selecting Windows Mobility Center. From there, you
can either mute or adjust the sound in the Volume area.
•Volume can be muted by pressing the [F3] key while holding down the [Fn] key. To restore audio, repeat the
[Fn+F3] procedure.
•Volume can be controlled by many volume controls that are set within individual applications.
•Certain external audio devices you might connect to your system may have hardware volume controls.
Each source discussed above puts an upper limit on the volume level that must then be followed by the other sources.
We recommend that you experiment with the various volume controls to discover the optimal sound level.
ANY SOFTWARE THAT CONTAINS AUDIO FILES WILL ALSO CONTAIN A VOLUME CONTROL OF ITS OWN. IF YOU INSTALL AN EXTERNAL AUDIO DEVICE
THAT HAS AN INDEPENDENT VOLUME CONTROL, THE HARDWARE VOLUME CONTROL AND THE SOFTWARE VOLUME CONTROL WILL INTERACT WITH
EACH OTHER. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT IF YOU SET YOUR SOFTWARE VOLUME TO OFF, YOU WILL OVERRIDE THE EXTERNAL VOLUME CONTROL
SETTING.

- Starting Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC
When you power on your LIFEBOOK, 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 LIFEBOOK Tablet PC will emit an audio warning and/or
an error message will be displayed. See “Power On Self Test Messages” on page 98. 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 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 the operating system is found. 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 LIFEBOOK Tablet PC.
•You restart your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC from the Windows Shut Down dialog box.
•The software initiates a system restart; for example, when you install a new application.
NEVER TURN OFF YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC DURING THE POWER ON SELF TEST (POST) OR IT WILL CAUSE AN ERROR MESSAGE TO BE
DISPLAYED WHEN YOU TURN YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC ON THE NEXT TIME.

- Starting Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC
Booting the System
We strongly recommend that you not attach any external devices or put a DVD/CD in your drive until you have gone
through the initial power on sequence.
When you turn on your LIFEBOOK 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
Welcome window. After the Welcome window appears, the screen will black out for up to several minutes. This is
normal. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO POWER DOWN THE SYSTEM AT THIS POINT. While the screen is blacked out, your
system configuration is being set up and the necessary files are being installed.
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.
Several additional windows will appear, prompting you to enter a name and description for your computer, an
Administrator password, and a domain name. Read the instructions on the screens carefully and fill in the
information as directed.
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. 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].
•IF YOU REJECT THE TERMS OF THE LICENSE AGREEMENT YOU WILL BE ASKED TO REVIEW THE LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR INFORMATION ON

RETURN TO THE BEGINNING OF THE WINDOWS WELCOME PROCESS, EVEN IF YOU SHUT YOUR TABLET PC DOWN AND START IT UP AGAIN.
63
- Starting Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC
Note that in some cases (depending upon which application was selected for installation) after installation
completes, the system will prompt you to reboot. There are also cases in which if multiple applications are selected
to install but one of them needs a reboot, the system will reboot and continue installing the rest of the selected
applications.
Registering your LIFEBOOK with Fujitsu
You can register your Tablet PC by going to our website at: https://store.shopfujitsu.com/fpc/Ecommerce/Service.jsp.
You will need to be set up with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to register online.

- Power Management
Power Management
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK 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 Slide
When your Tablet PC is active, the Power/Suspend/Resume slide can be used to manually put the Tablet PC into Sleep
mode. Push the Power/Suspend/Resume slide 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 slide returns your Tablet PC 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, your 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 slide 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.
65
- 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 slide 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 Tablet PC’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the
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 Start menu, select Control Panel, then select the Power Options icon.
2Select “Choose what the power button does” or “Choose what closing the lid does”, then make your selections (Do
Nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut Down).
Windows Power Management
The Power Options icon located in the Windows Control Panel allows you to configure some of the power
management settings. For example, you can use the Power Options to set the timeout values for turning off the
display and hard disks whether you are running the Tablet PC on battery power or one of the adapters.
•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 SLIDE PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USED TO PUT THE TABLET PC INTO SLEEP OR HIBERNATION (SAVE-
TO-DISK) 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.
66
- Power Management
Restarting the System
If your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure.
1Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the small arrow at the bottom right of the right-hand
pane.
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 Tablet PC shuts down without error, use the
Windows shut down procedure.
Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your Tablet PC to complete its operations and turn off
power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
1Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the small arrow at the bottom right of the right-hand
pane.
2Select Shut Down from the list.
If you are going to store your Tablet PC for a month or more, see Care and Maintenance Section.
TURNING OFF YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC WITHOUT EXITING WINDOWS OR TURNING ON YOUR TABLET PC WITHIN 10 SECONDS OF THE SYSTEM
BEING SHUT OFF MAY CAUSE AN ERROR WHEN YOU START THE NEXT TIME.
BE SURE TO CLOSE ALL FILES, EXIT ALL APPLICATIONS, AND SHUT DOWN YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM PRIOR TO TURNING OFF THE POWER. IF FILES ARE
OPEN WHEN YOU TURN THE POWER OFF, YOU WILL LOSE ANY CHANGES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN SAVED, AND MAY CAUSE DISK ERRORS.

ENERGY STAR® Compliance
Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PC. By choosing a computer with the latest
energy-saving technology, you’re helping to preserve our environment for future generations.
ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Energy,
Natural Resources Canada, and other governments around the world helping us save money while
protecting the environment through energy efficient products and practices. With energy costs and
global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is committed to offering solutions that help consumers conserve
energy and improve the quality of our environment.
Sleep Mode:
You will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 15 minutes of user inactivity, and the
computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. When going into Sleep mode, the computer also
reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To “wake” the computer from Sleep mode, press the
Suspend/Resume Button.
Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard equipment – saving half in
utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference for the environment. Did you know that the
average house can be responsible for twice the greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every
time you flip on a light switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more
greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efficiency, the more
we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.

User-Installable Features
Lithium ion Battery
Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has a Lithium ion battery that provides power for operating your Tablet PC when no external
power source is available. The battery is durable and long lasting, but should not be exposed to extreme
temperatures, high voltages, chemicals or other hazards.
The Lithium ion 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 a modem, 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, ANOTHER BATTERY
OR YOUR TABLET PC ITSELF. IT MAY ALSO PREVENT OPERATION OF YOUR TABLET PC BY DRAINING ALL AVAILABLE CURRENT INTO THE BAD BATTERY.
69
- Lithium ion Battery
Recharging the Batteries
If you want to know the condition of the primary Lithium ion battery, check the Battery Level indicator located on the
Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.
The Lithium ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter or Auto/Airline adapter. To recharge the battery
make sure the battery that needs to be charged is installed in your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC and connect the AC or
Auto/Airline adapter.
There is no memory effect on the Lithium ion battery therefore you do not need to discharge the battery completely
before recharging. The charge times will be 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 64 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. OPTICAL DRIVE OR HARD DRIVE USAGE MAY ALSO HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON BATTERY LIFE. THE BATTERY
CHARGING CAPACITY IS REDUCED AS THE BATTERY AGES. IF YOUR BATTERY IS RUNNING LOW QUICKLY, YOU SHOULD REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE.
•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.
70
- Lithium ion 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 slide 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 LIFEBOOK 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 LIFEBOOK 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
LIFEBOOK TABLET PC IS IN SLEEP MODE, ANY DATA THAT HAS NOT BEEN SAVED TO THE HARD DRIVE WILL BE LOST.

Troubleshooting Your LIFEBOOK
Troubleshooting
There may be occasions when you encounter simple setup or operating problems that you can solve on the spot, or
problems with peripheral devices that can be solved by replacing the device. The information in this section helps you
isolate and resolve some of these straightforward issues and identify failures that require service.
Identifying the Problem
If you encounter a problem, go through the following procedure before pursuing complex troubleshooting:
1Turn off your LIFEBOOK notebook.
2Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into your notebook and to an active AC power source.

Audio Problems
There is no sound coming
from the built-in speaker.
The volume is turned too low. Adjust the volume control on your Tablet PC and operating system. Use the
[Fn+F9] key combination on your keyboard. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while
holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your Tablet PC.
The software volume control
is set too low.
Manually adjusting the volume (i.e., keyboard "hot keys") should dynamically
adjust the volume of the operating system (see above). If that doesn’t work,
adjust the sound volume control settings in your software or application.
Headphones are plugged into
your Tablet PC.
Plugging in headphones disables the built-in speakers. Remove the head-
phones.
Software driver is not
configured correctly.
The audio driver may be installed or reinstalled using the Drivers and Applica-
tions CD that came with your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK. Refer to your application and
operating system documentation for help.
The speakers have been
muted using the Volume icon
in the system tray.
Click the Volume icon in the system tray on the bottom right of the screen. (It
looks like a speaker). If the Mute box has a red circle on it, click on it to unselect
it. You can also use the [Fn+F3] key combination to toggle the volume on and
off. Pressing [F3] while holding [Fn] will toggle the audio mute.
Optical Drive Problems
LIFEBOOK Tablet PC fails
to recognize DVD/CD-
RW/CD-ROM’s.
The disc is not pushed down
onto raised center circle of the
drive.
Open optical drive tray and re-install the disc properly.
Optical drive tray is not
latched shut.
Push on the front of the optical drive tray until it latches. If that doesn’t work,
pull out the modular drive latch to remove the device from the bay, then re-
insert the drive until it latched; this ensures that the drive is properly seated.
Incorrect DVD Player or
player software is installed.
Install DVD Player software.
DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM is
dirty or defective.
Wipe the disc with a non-abrasive CD cleaning cloth and reinsert. If it still will
not work try another DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM in the drive.

- Restoring Your System Image and Software
Restoring Your System Image and Software
It is very important that you create DVD copies of your Factory Image and Bootable Disc (along with other
applicable media such as application discs) 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 INSTALL APPLICATIONS, MAKE COPIES OF FACTORY AND SYSTEM IMAGES, AND BURN APPLICATION MEDIA AND 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 USING THE APPLICATION
MEDIA BUNDLED WITH YOUR SYSTEM.
100
- Restoring Your System Image and Software
To make a copy of the Factory Image to DVD discs, you will need several 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.
Creating Backup Images of Factory Image and Discs
Using the [Manage/Change] button, you can create backup images of the Factory Image, Application Disc(s), or
Bootable Disc.
1Launch My Recovery from desktop icon
2Select [Manage/Create]-> [Manage Backup Images].
The Backup Images menu displays a list from which you can choose which type of disc you want to burn: Bootable
Disc, Application Discs, or Recovery Disc.
3Select
Recovery Disc
, then click [Make DVD].
4Confirm that the # box has “2” (Note that in some cases the box may display a larger number for the factory image,
depending upon its size.)
5The message “Recovery Disc #1 will be created. Enter your comments and the number of media on the DVD”. Click
[YES] to burn the Factory Image.
6While the copy is being made, a “Writing to the media screen displays a progress bar. When the copy is complete,
a dialog will appear informing you of the successful completion of the backup.
7Repeat the process for the remaining images on disc (Bootable Disc and Application Discs). The number of images
available may vary depending on your system model; some models do not have the applications loaded on the
hard drive.
•SOME CONFIGURATIONS OF CERTAIN LIFEBOOK MODELS DO NOT HAVE APPLICATIONS LOADED ON THE HARD DRIVE; RATHER, THEY ARE AVAILABLE
AT THE FUJITSU SUPPORT SITE FOR DOWNLOAD. PLEASE TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT WHEN READING THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES.
•ALL USER-CREATED DATA WILL BE DELETED FROM YOUR SYSTEM WHEN THE FACTORY IMAGE IS RESTORED.
101
- Restoring Your System Image and Software
Recovering Your Factory Image
In the event you need to restore your original Factory Image, perform the following steps. Note that there may be
some third-party applications that need to be installed from the application media bundled with your system.
In order to recover your Factory Image, perform the steps outlined in “Running Recovery and Utility from hard disk”.
Backing Up a System Image
Optional Step: Launch the Fujitsu Bonus Apps utility from your desktop, and select the components you wish to
install.
User-Configured System Backups: On your desktop, there is a [MyRecovery] icon that allows you to
make backups of your current system image either to another location on your hard drive or on
removable media. A system image is the configuration of your C: drive at a particular point of time. You
may want to make system image backups occasionally in order to have points to which you can return
without having to go all the way back to the Factory Image.
By default, system images are saved in the MyRecovery folder (either on D:\ or external hard drive, depending on your
hardware type).
1Click the [MyRecovery] icon on your desktop. The My Recovery screen will appear (See Figure 47). Note that the
screen illustrated may vary, depending upon your system configuration.)
2Click the [Backup] button on the MyRecovery screen.
3On the next screen that appears, you can enter up to 200 characters of information about the backup file. This
information will help you to identify the image at a later date.
ALL USER-CREATED DATA WILL BE DELETED FROM YOUR SYSTEM WHEN THE FACTORY IMAGE IS RESTORED.

4Click the [Next] button and the system will reboot.
5After rebooting, the “Creating of the backup image” window appears, in which you can either click [Create the
image on D drive] or [Select the drive] if you want to save to an external hard disk drive. (Note that the [Create
the image on D drive may not be available on all configurations.)
6An image appears showing you graphically how the image will be stored. Click the [Next] button.
7Click [Execute] to start the backup.
103
- Restoring Your System Image and Software
Managing Your Backup Images
With the MyRecovery tool you can also make copies of backup images, archive them on DVD, or delete them from
your hard drive.
1To begin, click the [MyRecovery] icon on your desktop.
2Click the [Manage/Create] button in the MyRecovery window.
3When the MyRecovery Manager window appears, click [Manage Backup Images].
4In the next window, a list of your backup images appears. Below the list are three buttons allowing you to [Make
DVD], [Copy], or [Delete] your backup images.
5Select an image title from the list, then click the action button you would like to perform.
6Note that you need to have an external disk drive connected for the [Copy] button to be enabled. If you elect to
copy the image, you will be prompted to enter the destination. If you are ready to copy, click [OK] to proceed. A
progress screen appears while the backup copy is being made.
7Note that if you copy an image to an external hard drive, both the original and the copy will appear in the [Backup
Images] window with identical names, dates, and file sizes, but with the different drive letter to distinguish them.
Before you select [Make DVD], make sure you have a recordable DVD drive connected and blank DVDs available.
Using the Recovery and Utility Tools
The Recovery and Utility tools consist of a variety of tools that will help you recover your Factory Image, recover system
images, and delete the data from your hard disk.
Methods for accessing the utilities
Recovery and Utility Tools are preinstalled in a hidden partition by the factory, or they can be accessed by using the
bootable disc. Please note that you can delete Recovery and Utility tools from your hard disk drive if you modify the
partitions. In this case you will not be able to use the hidden partition for booting to Recovery and Utility Tools, but
you will still be able to boot from the Bootable Disc.

separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 1.160.10.240 could be an IP address.
131
-
Within an isolated network, you can assign IP addresses at random as long as each one is unique. However,
connecting a private network to the Internet requires using registered IP addresses (called Internet addresses) to
avoid duplicates.
The four numbers in an IP address are used in different ways to identify a particular network and a host on that
network. Three regional Internet registries -- ARIN, RIPE NCC and APNIC -- assign Internet addresses from the following
three classes.
Class A - supports 16 million hosts on each of 126 networks
Class B - supports 65,000 hosts on each of 16,000 networks
Class C - supports 254 hosts on each of 2 million networks
The number of unassigned Internet addresses is running out, so a new classless scheme called CIDR is gradually
replacing the system based on classes A, B, and C and is tied to adoption of IPv6.

Shared key authentication
802.11 network authentication method in which the AP sends the client device a challenge text packet that the client
must then encrypt with the correct WEP key and return to the AP. If the client has the wrong key or no key,
authentication will fail and the client will not be allowed to associate with the AP. Shared key authentication is not
considered secure, because a hacker who detects both the clear-text challenge and the same challenge encrypted
with a WEP key can decipher the key.
136
-
SSID
Service Set Identifier, a 32-character unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that acts
as a password when a mobile device tries to connect to the BSS. The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so
all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. A device will not

Regulatory Notes and Statements
Wireless LAN, Health and Authorization for use
Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from Wireless LAN devices. The energy levels of these emissions, however, are far much
less than the electromagnetic energy emissions from wireless devices such as mobile phones. Wireless LAN devices are safe for use by
consumers because they operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations. The use of Wireless
LAN devices may be restricted in some situations or environments, such as:
•On board an airplane, or
•In an explosive environment, or
•In situations where the interference risk to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful.
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.
Regulatory Information/Disclaimers
Installation and use of this Wireless LAN device must be in strict accordance with the instructions included in the user documentation
provided with the product. Any changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by the manufacturer may void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused by
unauthorized modification of this device, or the substitution or attachment of connecting cables and equipment other than those specified
by the manufacturer. It is the responsibility of the user to correct any interference caused by such unauthorized modification, substitution or
attachment. The manufacturer and its authorized resellers or distributors will assume no liability for any damage or violation of government
regulations arising from failure to comply with these guidelines.

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.

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.

- 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).

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 52. Fingerprint sensor
With a fingerprint sensor, you can avoid having to enter a username and password every time you want to:
•Log onto Windows
•Cancel a password-protected screen saver
•Log into homepages that require a username and password
After you have “enrolled” - or registered - your fingerprint, you can simply swipe your fingertip over the sensor for the
system recognize you.
Fingerprint
Sensor Device
154
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 156. 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:
CERTAIN MODELS SUPPORT PRE-BOOT AUTHENTICATION OR PBA. PBA ALLOWS THE USER TO LOG IN PRIOR TO WINDOWS' OWN AUTHENTICATION
MECHANISM. A PBA ENVIRONMENT SERVES AS AN EXTENSION OF THE BIOS OR BOOT FIRMWARE AND ALLOWS FOR A MORE SECURE ENVIRONMENT
EXTERNAL TO THE OPERATING SYSTEM.
155
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
•Windows XP Professional operating system or later
•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 156
.
Otherwise continue with this
section on software installation.
To install OmniPass on your system you must:
1Omnipass is included in the Fujitsu Bonus Apps. To install Omnipass, start the Fujitsu Bonus Apps application from
the desktop icon, select Softex Omnipass and click [Install].
2Once 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.
3The 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.
•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.
156
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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,
Click the Start button 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.
2Version information is listed on the left side of OmniPass Control center window.
Uninstalling OmniPass
To remove the OmniPass application from your system:
1Click Start on the Windows taskbar. Select Control Panel.
2Double-click Add/Remove Programs (In Windows 7: Programs and Features).
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.
157
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Computer resources are often protected with passwords. Whether you are logging into your computer, accessing
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 “lifebook”), 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 “lifebook”) 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.
158
- 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 Enroll a new user.
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 becomes 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, Domain: may not be your Windows computer name. Click [Next] to continue.
3In this step OmniPass captures your fingerprint. See “Enrolling a Fingerprint” on page 158 for more information.
4You will then see a Congratulations screen indicating your completion of user enrollment.
5Click [OK] 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 increases the security of your system and streamlines the authentication procedure.
You enroll fingerprints in the OmniPass Control Center. With an OmniPass user logged in, click the Start button >
Select Programs > Select Softex > Select Enroll a new user.
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.
159
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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.
4After you finish enrolling and verifying your fingerprints, you have the option to Enable PBA with
enrolled finger. If you enable this option, then you must choose two fingers to save in PBA. If you have
enrolled successfully, the Finger Enrollment Status in PBA screen will state Finger saved in PBA
successfully.
Using OmniPass
You are 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.
IF YOU ENABLE PBA ON YOUR SYSTEM, YOU MUST SET THE SUPERVISOR PASSWORD AND PASSWORD ON BOOT SETTINGS. SEE “HARD DISK DRIVE
PASSWORDS” ON PAGE 61 FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
160
- 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 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 that has a password prompt.
Using the following procedure, you can store a set of credentials into OmniPass. These credentials will then be linked
to your “master password” or fingerprint.
Go to a site that requires a login (username and 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.
161
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Additional Settings for Remembering a Site
When OmniPass prompts you to enter a “friendly name” you have the opportunity to set how OmniPass authenticates
you to this site. There are three 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.
The following cases are applicable to using OmniPass to login to: Windows, remembered web sites, and all other
password protected resources.
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.
162
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 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.
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.
163
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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".
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.
WHEN YOU DELETE AN IDENTITY, ALL OF ITS ASSOCIATED REMEMBERED SITES AND PASSWORD PROTECTED DIALOGS ARE LOST.
164
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
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 162.
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.
•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.
165
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Exporting an OmniPass User Profile
To export a user, open OmniPass Control Center, and click Run User Management Wizard.
Click Backup a user's OmniPass 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 Run User Management Wizard. Click
Restore a user's OmniPass profile. 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.
166
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
•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
The Omnipass Control Center allows you to perform a variety of Omnipass "housekeeping" tasks. For details about the
features offered by the Control Center:
1Go to Start > All Programs > Softex > Omnipass Control Center.
2When the Omnipass Control Center opens, click the Help link on the left side of the Control Center window.
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.
167
- Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device
Dialog appears after OmniPass authentication during Windows Logon
After installing OmniPass on your system, you can choose to logon to Windows using OmniPass. You authenticate
with OmniPass (via master password, or an enrolled security device) and OmniPass logs you into Windows. You
may, during this OmniPass authentication, see a Login Error dialog box.
This dialog box occurs when OmniPass was unable to log you into Windows with the credentials supplied
(username and password). This could happen for any of the following reasons:
•Your Windows password has changed
•Your Windows account has been disabled
If you are having difficulties due to the first reason, you will need to update OmniPass with your changed Windows
account password. Click Update Password and you will be prompted with a dialog to reconfirm your password.
Enter the new password to your Windows user account and click OK. If the error persists, then it is unlikely the
problem is due to your Windows user account password changing.
168
Appendix C: Using Intel® Wireless Display
Using the Wireless Display technology
Intel® Wireless Display (WiDi) is a new technology that is available as an option on selected Fujitsu LIFEBOOK
computers. If you have Intel WiDi on your system, please read these instructions and information regarding its use.
