2 Handling drives Drives are fragile computer components that must be handled with care. Refer to the following cautions before handling drives. Additional cautions are included with the procedures to which they apply. CAUTION To reduce the risk of damage to the computer, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:

Before you move a computer or external hard drive from one location to another, initiate Sleep, and allow the screen to clear. Before handling a drive, discharge static electricity by touching the unpainted metal surface of the drive. Do not touch the connector pins on a removable drive or on the computer. Handle a drive carefully; do not drop a drive or place items on it. Before removing or inserting a drive, shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer is off, in the Sleep state, or in hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system. Do not use excessive force when inserting a drive into a drive bay. Do not type on the keyboard or move the computer while the optical drive is writing to a disc. The write process is sensitive to vibration. When the battery is the only source of power, be sure that the battery is sufficiently charged before writing to a medium. Avoid exposing a drive to temperature or humidity extremes. Avoid exposing a drive to liquids. Do not spray the drive with cleaning products. Remove the medium from a drive before removing the drive from the drive bay, or traveling with, shipping, or storing a drive. If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble-pack mailer or other suitable protective packaging and label the package FRAGILE. Avoid exposing a drive to magnetic fields. Security devices with magnetic fields include airport walk-through devices and security wands. The airport security devices that check carry-on luggage, such as conveyor belts, use x-rays instead of magnetism and will not damage a drive. 2 Chapter 2 Handling drives ENWW Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/

3 Optical drives An optical drive, such as a DVD-ROM drive, supports optical discs (CDs and DVDs). These discs store or transport information and play music and movies. DVDs have a higher storage capacity than CDs. Optical drives can read from and select models can write to optical media as described in the following table. Optical drive type Read CD and DVD-ROM media Write to CD-

RW media Write to DVD RW/R media Write to DVD

Layer support LightScribe DVDRW/R and CD-RW Combo Drive with Double-

Layer support NOTE Some of the optical drives listed may not be supported by your computer. The listed drives are not necessarily all of the supported optical drives. CAUTION To prevent possible audio and video degradation, loss of information, or loss of audio or video playback functionality, do not initiate Sleep or hibernation while reading or writing to a CD or DVD. ENWW 3 Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/

If Sleep or hibernation is accidentally initiated during playback of a disc, you may experience the following behaviors:

Your playback may be interrupted. You may see the following warning: Putting the computer into hibernation or standby may stop the playback. Do you want to continue? Click No. You may need to restart the CD or DVD to resume audio and video playback. 4 Chapter 3 Optical drives ENWW Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/

Publish the pictures to a Web site. Order prints of the pictures. Save the pictures on your computer. Adjusting camera properties You can adjust the following camera properties:

BrightnessControls the amount of light that is incorporated into the image. A higher brightness setting creates a brighter image; a lower brightness setting creates a darker image. ContrastControls the difference between lighter and darker areas on the image. A higher contrast setting intensifies the image; a lower contrast setting maintains more of the original informations dynamic range but leads to a flatter image. HueControls the aspect of color that distinguishes it from another color (what makes a color red, green, or blue). Hue is distinct from saturation, which measures the intensity of the hue. SaturationControls the strength of color in the final image. A higher saturation setting creates a bolder image; a lower saturation setting creates a more subtle image. SharpnessControls the definition of edges in an image. A higher sharpness setting creates a more defined image; a lower sharpness setting creates a softer image. GammaControls the contrast affecting the mid-level grays or midtones of an image. Adjusting the gamma of an image allows you to change brightness values of the middle range of gray tones without dramatically altering the shadows and highlights. A lower Gamma setting makes greys look black, and makes dark colors even darker. White BalanceControls the color temperature of the dominant light sources. This enables white objects in the image to appear truly white. The white balance settings in the Properties dialog box are displayed as WB (Red) and WB (Blue). A higher white balance setting increases the concentration of the color (red or blue); a lower white balance setting decreases the concentration of the selected color. ExposureControls the relative amount of light that enters the camera sensor. A higher exposure setting allows more light; a lower exposure setting allows less light. GainControls the intensity range, thus altering the color contrast of the image. A higher gain setting stretches the intensity range; a lower gain setting shrinks the intensity. Light SourceControls the settings to adjust the camera exposure for the ambient light. FlipReverses the captured image vertically. MirrorReverses the captured image horizontally. 10 Chapter 1 Using multimedia hardware ENWW Antenna House XSL Formatter (Evaluation) http://www.antennahouse.com/

Products with HP Broadband Wireless Modules THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY RADIATION. The HP Broadband Wireless Module in your notebook is a radio transmitter and receiver. The device is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines that establish permitted levels 6 Chapter 1 Regulatory notices of RF radiation for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The device also meets the European R&TTE directives, including the protection of the health and the safety of the user and any other person. The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).* The SAR was obtained by testing the device at standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The SAR information for your computer, including the recommended minimum distance from the body, is available on the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com/broadbandwireless. The actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value, because the device operates at multiple power levels and uses only the power required to reach the network. When installed in the notebook computer, this device meets RF exposure guidelines when the antennae are positioned at a minimum distance from the body. In order to transmit data or messages, this device requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data or messages may be delayed until such a connection becomes available. Be sure that the recommended distance is observed until the transmission is complete.

*The non-FCC, international guidelines state that the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network band.

Introduction: Broadcom BCM94322MC PCI-E Mini Card User's Guide Before you begin Things you should know BCM94322MC network Before you begin Obtain the following information from your network administrator (if you are a home user, obtain this information from the person that installed your wireless access point):

l Network names (SSID) of the specific wireless networks that you want to connect to. l WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key information (if any) for the networks you want to connect to. l For Microsoft Windows networking, your customer name and workgroup name. l For your network account, your user name and password. l Your IP address (if not using a DHCP server) Things you should know When you start your computer, your Broadcom BCM94322MC PCI-E Mini card detects certain wireless networks that are within range. Before you can connect to these and other wireless networks, you must configure a profile for each network using the information you obtained from your network administrator. WEP is a security protocol for wireless local area networks (defined in the IEEE 802.11g standard) that encrypts data sent over radio waves. The use of the WEP key is optional and can be enabled or disabled. If the network you are connecting to has enabled WEP, you must also enable WEP in the network profile and set the WEP key to match the WEP key used by the network. Otherwise, you cannot connect to the network. Broadcom BCM94322MC network The Broadcom BCM94322MC solution allows you to make a wireless connection to a network, as illustrated below.
