CHAPTER 7
Caring for the Computer
Taking good care of your computer will ensure a trouble-free operation
and reduce the risk of damage to your computer.
This chapter gives you guidelines covering these areas of maintenance:
l How to protect the computer
l What to note when using and storing the computer
l How to clean the computer
l What to note when using the battery pack
l What to note when traveling with the computer
7-2 Caring for the Computer
Protecting the Computer
To safeguard the integrity of your computer data as well as the computer
itself, you can protect the computer in several ways as described in this
section.
Using the Password
The power-on password protects your computer against unauthorized
use. If the password is set, the prompt requesting for the password
appears on the screen whenever the computer is turned on.
The password is set via the SCU program. See “Startup Menu” in Chapter
5 for instructions.
Using an Anti-Virus Strategy
New viruses are always being developed nowadays and they are attacking
computers even more easily with emails so commonly used worldwide.
The Security feature of the SCU program protects the boot sector of the
hard disk. To enable the function, see “Disks Menu” in Chapter 5 for
instructions.
You can also install a virus-detecting program to monitor potential
viruses that could damage your files.
Caring for the Computer 7-3
Taking Care of the Computer
Location Guidelines
l Use the computer where the temperature is between 0 °C (32 °F) and
50 °C (122 °F).
l Avoid placing the computer in a location subject to high humidity,
extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, direct sunlight, or heavy
dust.
l Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on the computer. For
example, do not place the computer on a bed, sofa, rug, or other
similar surface. Otherwise, overheating may occur that results in
damage to the computer.
l Keep the computer at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical
appliances that can generate a strong magnetic field such as a TV,
refrigerator, motor, or a large audio speaker.
l Do not move the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A
temperature difference of more than 10 °C (18 °F) will cause
condensation inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.
l Do not place the computer on an unsteady surface.
General Guidelines
l Do not place heavy objects on top of the computer as this may
damage the display.
l The screen surface is easily scratched. Do not use paper towels to
clean the display. Avoid touching it with a ballpoint pen or pencil.
l To maximize the life of the backlight in the display, allow the
backlight to automatically turn off as a result of power management.
Avoid using a screen saver or other software that prevents the power
management from working.
7-4 Caring for the Computer
Cleaning Guidelines
l Never clean the computer with its power on.
l Use a soft cloth moistened with water or a non-alkaline detergent to
wipe the exterior of the computer.
l Gently wipe the display with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol
or detergent on the display.
l Dust on the IR/Bluetooth port can interfere with data transfer. Wipe
the port with a soft, dry cloth.
l Dust or grease on the touchscreen can affect its sensitivity. Clean the
touchscreen by using adhesive tape to remove the dust and grease on
its surface.
Battery Pack Guidelines
l Recharge the battery pack when it is nearly discharged. When
recharging, make sure the battery pack is fully charged. Doing so
may avoid harm to the battery pack.
l Operate the computer with the battery pack installed even when using
external power. This ensures that the battery is fully charged.
l If you will not be using the computer for a long period of time (more
than two weeks), remove the battery pack from the computer.
l If you remove the battery pack, make sure the battery terminals do
not contact any conductors such as metal objects or water. Otherwise,
the battery may become unusable as a result of a short circuit.
l If you need to store the battery pack, store it in a cool, dry place.
Never allow the temperature to exceed 70 °C (158 °F).
l Do not leave the battery pack in storage for more than 3 months
without recharging it.
Caring for the Computer 7-5
When Traveling
l Before traveling with your computer, make a backup of your hard
disk data into floppy disks or other storage devices. As an added
precaution, bring along an extra copy of your important data.
l Make sure the battery pack is fully charged.
l Make sure the computer is turned off.
l Do not leave objects that will press onto the display.
l Disconnect the AC adapter from the computer and take it with you.
Use the AC adapter as the power source and as a battery-charger.
l Hand-carry the computer. Do not check it in as luggage.
l Allow extra time for airport security. Many airports inspect
electronic devices carefully.
l If you need to leave the computer in the car, put it in the trunk of the
car to avoid exposing the computer to excessive heat.
l When going through airport security, it is recommended that you
send the computer and floppy disks through the X-ray machine (the
device you set your bags on). Avoid the magnetic detector (the device
you walk through) or the magnetic wand (the hand-held device used
by security personnel).
l If you plan to travel abroad with your computer, consult your dealer
for the appropriate AC power cord for use in your country of
destination.

Avoid moving your finger during the scan, and be sure that you are
making contact with the “sensor matrix” and with the surrounding drive
ring (the light-colored surface surrounding the matrix). The system works
best when it has a “core” image (the center of your fingerprint, which is
approximately opposite the line of the cuticle of your fingernail).

The following program options are available:
• Enroll – allows the sensor IC to acquire fingerprint images, process it
into the essential template data, and then insert it into the database
together with an associated User ID and other optional information.
• Identify – is used to compare the finger presented to the sensor
against all of the other fingerprints currently entered in the database
(known as one-to-many search).
• Validate ID – is used to perform a one-to-one verification to
ascertain if the person whose finger is placed on the sensor is in fact
the same as the person enrolled under a particular User ID.
• Data Capture – a viewing facility that is used to display (or capture)
a continuous series of real-time images of a fingerprint.
• Database – is used to review, delete, and otherwise manage the
contents of the database.
NOTE: For an online Help information on using the application, click on “Help” located
