(surrounded by heavy line) Figure 2-10 Keyboard Application Key Cursor Keys Keyboard USING THE KEYBOARD Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has an integral 84-key keyboard. The keys perform all the standard functions of a 101-key keyboard, including the Windows keys and other special function keys. This section describes the following keys. (Figure 2-10) Numeric keypad: Your notebook allows certain keys to serve dual purposes, both as standard characters and as numeric and mathematical keys. The ability to tog-
gle between the standard character and numerical keys is controlled through the [NumLk] key. Cursor keys: Your keyboard contains four arrow keys for moving the cursor or insertion point to the right, left, up, or down within windows, applications and documents. Function keys: The keys labeled [F1] through [F12], are used in conjunction with the [Fn] key to produce special actions that vary depending on what program is running. Windows keys: These keys work with your Windows operating system and function the same as the onscreen Start menu button, or the right button on your pointing device. NUMERIC KEYPAD Certain keys on the keyboard perform dual functions as both standard character keys and numeric keypad keys. NumLk can be activated by pressing the [NumLk] keys. Turning off the NumLk feature is done the same way. Once this feature is activated you can enter numerals 0 through 9, perform addition ( + ), subtraction ( - ), multiplication ( * ), or division ( / ), and enter decimal points ( . ) using the keys designated as ten-key function keys. The keys in the numeric keypad are marked on the front edge of the key to indicate their secondary functions.
(Figure 2-10) WINDOWS KEYS Your LifeBook notebook has two Windows keys, consisting of a Start key and an Application key. The Start key displays the Start menu. This button functions the same as your onscreen Start menu button. The Application key functions the same as your right mouse button and displays shortcut menus for the selected item. (Please refer to your Windows documentation for additional information regarding the Windows keys.)
(Figure 2-10) CURSOR KEYS The cursor keys are the four arrow keys on the keyboard which allow you to move the cursor up, down, left and right in applications. In programs such as Windows Explorer, it moves the focus (selects the next item up, down, left, or right).

Touchpad pointing device Touchpad Pointing Device The Touchpad pointing device built into your Fujitsu LifeBook is used to control the movement of the pointer to select items on your display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, two left and right buttons, and a scrolling button. The cursor control works the same as a mouse, and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires light pressure with the tip of your finger. The left and right buttons function the same as mouse buttons. The left and right buttons that are located at the top of the Touchpad are designed for use with the optional Quick Point Control, and they func-
tion the same as the lower buttons. The actual function-
ality of the buttons may vary depending on the application that is being used. The scrolling button allows you to navigate quickly through pages, without having to use the scroll bars. Certain E8310 LifeBooks are equipped with an optional Quick Point button for moving the cursor. For more about Quick Point, see Optional Quick Point Feature on page 17. The scrolling button may be replaced by an optional fingerprint sensor. To read about the fingerprint sensor, see Fin-
gerprint Sensor Device on page 99. An external mouse can be connected to either USB or PS/2 ports on your Life-
Book or the optional port replicator, and used simultaneously with the Touchpad. Note: If you boot the system with an external mouse connected the Touchpad will be disabled or enabled depending on your BIOS settings. (See Entering the BIOS Setup Utility on page 29 for more information) 16 CLICKING Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To left-
click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the left button once, and then immediately release it. To right-click, move the mouse cursor to the item you wish to select, press the right button once, and then immediately release it. You also have the option to perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on the Touchpad once. (Figure 2-12) Figure 2-12 Clicking DOUBLE-CLICKING Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the left button twice in rapid succession. This procedure does not function with the right button. To double-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the left button twice, and immediately release it. You can also perform the double-click operation by tapping lightly on the Touchpad twice. (Figure 2-13) Figure 2-13 Double-clicking G e t t i n g t o K n o w Y o u r L i f e B o o k OPTIONAL QUICK POINT FEATURE The optional Quick Point device consists of a cursor control button at the lower center of the keyboard. It is roughly the same size and shape as a pencil eraser. The cursor control works the same way a mouse ball does, and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires light pressure to move; the more pressure you use, the faster the cursor will move. The left and right buttons that are located at the top of the Touchpad are designed for use with the Quick Point control, and they function in the same manner as the lower buttons. When used with the Quick Point button, the middle Touchpad button allows you to scroll up and down a screen. Figure 2-16 Using Quick Point Eagle E8310.book Page 17 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 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. (Figure 2-14) Figure 2-14 Dragging TOUCHPAD CONTROL ADJUSTMENT The Windows Control Panel allows you to customize your Touchpad with selections made from within the Mouse Properties dialog box. SCROLLING Using the Scrolling button allows you to navigate through a document quickly without using the windows scroll bars. This is particularly useful when you are navi-
gating through on-line pages. To use the Scrolling button, press the crescent shape at the top or bottom of the button to scroll up or down a page. When you have reached the desired section of the page, release the button. (Figure 2-15) Figure 2-15 Scrolling 17 Eagle E8310.book Page 18 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k Volume Control Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has multiple volume controls which interact with each other. 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. CONTROLLING THE VOLUME The volume can be controlled in several different ways:
Volume can be changed or muted from within the Vol-
ume Control on the Taskbar. Volume can be controlled with the F8 and F9 func-
tions keys. Pressing [F8] repeatedly while holding [Fn]
will decrease the volume of your notebook. Pressing
[F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your notebook. 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. 18 Eagle E8310.book Page 19 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM G e t t i n g t o K n o w Y o u r L i f e B o o k Flexible Bay Flexible Bay Release Latch Figure 2-17 Flexible Bay Flexible Bay Devices Your notebook has a Flexible Bay that can house one of several devices.

LifeBook Security/Application Panel LifeBook Security/
Application Panel A unique feature of your LifeBook notebook is the Security/Application Panel that allows you to secure your notebook from unauthorized use. The Security/Applica-
tion Panel also allows you to launch applications with the touch of a button when your system is on. If the security system is activated, upon starting your notebook or resuming from suspend mode the security system requires you to enter a password code using the buttons on the Security/Application Panel. After entering a correct password, your notebook resumes system operation. (Figure 2-19) SETTING UP YOUR LIFEBOOK SECURITY PANEL When you receive your LifeBook notebook, the security panel application is pre-installed without any passwords. The following sections provide detailed information on your security panel, and how to set, change or remove passwords. Numbered Buttons Use these buttons to enter your password. Enter Button After entering the button strokes, push this button to enter the password into the LifeBook notebook. PASSWORDS The user and supervisor password may be set on this notebook. A supervisor password is typically the same for all LifeBook notebooks in a working group, office, or company to allow for system management. Individual LifeBook notebooks in a group environment should not use a common password. A password consists of one to five button strokes plus the [Enter] button. A valid 20 stroke consists of pushing one or up to four buttons simultaneously. The following are valid button strokes:
Pushing [4] by itself Pushing [2] and [3] at the same time Pushing [1], [2], and [4] at the same time Pushing [1], [2], [3], and [4] at the same time The following are valid passwords. The numbers within braces ({ }) are button strokes using more than one button.
{[2]+[3]}, [1], [enter]
[4], [enter]
{[1]+[3]}, {[2]+[3]+[4]}, [1], [4], [2], [enter]
Setting Passwords When shipped from the factory, no passwords are set. You have a choice of having no password or setting a supervisor and user password. You must set the super-
visor password before the user password. The purpose of supervisor password is to be able to bypass the user password in case the user password is forgotten. The supervisor password alone will not lock the system. You must set both the supervisor and user passwords for the security panel to work. Setting Supervisor Password You must have set a supervisor password before setting any user passwords. The supervisor password can bypass the user password. Depending upon your operating system, use the appropriate procedure below. Windows XP:
1. Go to the Start menu. 2. Click on Run. Eagle E8310.book Page 21 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 3. Type in:

OPERATING YOUR LIFEBOOK SECURITY/APPLICATION PANEL The security lock feature is in effect both when the system resumes from Off or suspend state. You will need to enter the user password right after pressing the Suspend/Resume button. Your system will not boot or resume from Standby without entering your supervisor/
user password. From Off State 1. Turn on your system. 2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass-
word and press [Enter] button. For example, if the password is 22222, press button number [2] five times and press [Enter] button. The notebook will boot to normal operation. 3. The notebook should resume normal operation. Incorrect Password Entry If an invalid supervisor or user password is entered three times in succession, the system will beep for about one minute. If a valid password is entered within a minute
(while system beeps), the beeping will stop and the note-
book will resume normal operation. If no password (or an invalid one) is entered while the system beeps, the system will return to its previous locked state (Standby or off) and the Security Indicator will go off. To reacti-
vate the notebook after a password failure, you must press the Power/Suspend/Resume button, then enter a correct password. Remember the user password you specified on the Security Panel Application. If you forget the password you will not be able to use your computer. The supervisor password can override the user password. PRECAUTIONS Opening and Closing the Cover Closing the cover automatically places the notebook into standby mode. Opening the cover does not automati-
cally place the notebook into normal operation. Instead, you must enter the proper security password after pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume button. This setting can be changed in the Power Options Control Panel. Low Battery Operations If your LifeBook notebook has a low battery, pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume button only turns on the Secu-
rity Indicator, your notebook does not unlock. The Security Indicator turns off after one minute. To resume normal operation, first attach a power supply to the notebook. Then you may unlock the notebook. UNINSTALLING THE SECURITY PANEL APPLICATION You have two options when uninstalling the security panel application:

tion) 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 note-
book will load your operating system. Never turn off your LifeBook notebook during the Power On Self Test (POST) or it will cause an error message to be displayed when you turn your LifeBook notebook on the next time. (See Power On Self Test Messages on page 59 for more information) G e t t i n g S t a r t e d BOOT SEQUENCE The procedure for starting-up your notebook is termed the Bootup sequence and involves your notebooks BIOS. When your LifeBook notebook is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start up your notebook. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your notebook, it goes through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating system is loaded. During booting, your notebook 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 systems opening screen. The boot sequence is executed when:
You turn on the power to your LifeBook notebook. You restart your notebook from the Windows Shut Down dialog box. The software initiates a system restart. Example: When you install a new application. HARD DISK DRIVE PASSWORDS To provide additional security for your data, you can assign passwords to your hard disk drive(s). This feature is managed in the system BIOS Setup Utility. See BIOS Setup Utility below for information about accessing the utility. Remember your passwords.

BOOTING THE SYSTEM We strongly recommend that you not attach any external devices and do not put a DVD/CD in your drive until you have gone through the initial power on sequence. When you turn on your notebook 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. Depending upon your operating system (Windows Vista or XP edition), there is a different procedure for starting your system for the first time, as outlined below. 30 STARTING WINDOWS VISTA THE FIRST TIME The first time you initialize your Windows Vista system, the screen will be blank for approximately two minutes. This is normal. After initialization, a Set Up Windows dialog box will appear. Important: During the setup procedure, do not disconnect the power supply, press any buttons, or use any peripheral devices such as a mouse, keyboard, or remote control. In order to ensure that you receive the most benefits from the Windows Vista operating system, it should be registered the first time you use it. 1. First of all, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs). If you reject the terms of the license agreement you will be asked to review the license agreement for information on returning Windows or to shut down your LifeBook notebook. You cannot use your notebook until you have accepted the License Agreement. If you stop the process your notebook will return to the beginning of the Windows Welcome Process, even if you shut your notebook down and start it up again. 2. You will be prompted to enter your User Name and Password and you will be given a chance to select an icon for your account. 3. The next screen asks for a Computer Name and allows you to choose a desktop background. 4. You will next see a "Help protect Windows automat-
ically" screen in which the default choice is "Use recommended settings. The other two choices are
"Install important updates only" and "Ask me later". Select from the three choices. 5. On the next screen set your time and date settings. 6. You will next see the "Select your computer's current location" screen. Make your selection from Home, Work (Default), and Public location. 7. The "Thank you" screen follows and an offer for free Norton Internet Security is extended. Following are several screens while Windows checks the system performance. 8.

Click on Register Windows Online and follow the instructions that appear to register your copy of Windows. STARTING WINDOWS XP THE FIRST TIME Registering Windows XP with Microsoft In order to ensure that you receive the most benefits from the Windows operating system, it should be registered the first time you use it. After you receive the Windows Welcome screen, you will be prompted to enter registration information in the following order. First of all, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs). After accepting the EULAs, you will be asked if you want to enable the Auto-
matic Updates feature. Acceptance of this feature is recommended because it allows your system to be updated automatically whenever an important change becomes available for your notebook. If you reject the terms of the license agreement you will be asked to review the license agreement for information on returning Windows or to shut down your LifeBook notebook. You cannot use your notebook until you have accepted the License Agreement. If you stop the process your notebook will return to the beginning of the Windows Welcome Process, even if you shut your notebook down and start it up again. 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 infor-
mation as directed. You will then be automatically connected to the Internet, if you have an appropriate connection available. If an automatic connection is not possible, you will be asked about how you dial out from where you will be using your LifeBook notebook. If you are not connected to a phone line and plan to register at a later time, you may click the Skip button. Once you are connected to the Internet, you will be asked if you wish to continue with the registration. If you select Yes you will then enter your name and REGISTERING YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK You can register your LifeBook by going to our website at: us.fujitsu.com/computers You will need to be set up with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to register online. INSTALLING CLICK ME!
Before installing the ClickMe! utility, be sure the wireless LAN switch is turned on. Windows Vista Systems The first time you boot up your system, you will see a Primary Settings for the PC window. This window explains the installations which will be performed by the Click Me! utility. If you click [Execute], Click Me! will begin installing. If after clicking the button you receive a User Account Control window, you will be asked for your permission to continue. Click [Yes] to continue. If you cancel the operation, the Click Me! icon will appear on your desktop for later installation. Windows XP Systems The first time you boot up your system, you will see an icon called Click Me! in the Start menu. We highly recommend that you install the ClickMe! utility the first time you boot up. When you click the Click Me! icon, your system will automatically create the related icons in the system tray in the bottom right of the screen. These icons provide links to utilities that you will frequently access, such as wireless LAN software provided by the wireless LAN manufacturer. There may be additional third-party applications that are installed by the ClickMe! utility. For more information, refer to your Getting Started Guide. FUJITSU DRIVER UPDATE UTILITY Your system has a convenient tool called the Fujitsu Driver Update (FDU) utility. With FDU, you can choose to automatically or manually go to the Fujitsu site to check for new updates for your system. For more infor-
mation about the FDU utility, refer to Automatically Downloading Driver Updates on page 83. 31 Eagle E8310.book Page 32 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k Power Management Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features are automatic and need no user intervention, such as those for the internal modem. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your oper-
ating conditions, such as those for the display bright-
ness. Internal power management for your notebook 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 notebook into Standby 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 perfor-
mance and power savings. POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME BUTTON When your notebook is active, the Power/Suspend/
Resume button can be used to manually put the note-
book into Standby mode. Push the Power/Suspend/
Resume button when the notebook is active, but not actively accessing anything, and immediately release the button. You will hear two short beeps and the system will enter Standby mode. If your notebook is suspended, pushing the Power/
Suspend/Resume button returns your notebook 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 notebook is fully opera-
tional. If the indicator is visible and flashing, your note-
book is in Standby mode. If the indicator is not visible, the power is off or your notebook is in Hibernation mode. (See Hibernation Feature) STANDBY MODE Standby (or Suspend) mode in Windows saves the contents of your system memory during periods of inac-
tivity 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 notebook can be put in Standby mode by:
Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume button when your system is turned on. Selecting Standby from the Windows Shut Down menu. Timing out from lack of activity. 32 Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warn-
ing condition. Your notebooks system memory typically stores the file on which you are working, open application informa-
tion, and any other data required to support operations in progress. When you resume operation from Standby mode, your notebook will return to the point where it left off. You must use the Power/Suspend/Resume button to resume operation, and there must be an adequate power source available, or your notebook will not resume. If you are running your notebook on battery power, be aware that the battery continues to discharge while your note-
book is in Suspend mode, though not as fast as when fully operational. Disabling the Power/Suspend/Resume button prevents it from being used to put the notebook into Standby or Hiber-
nation (Save-to-Disk) mode. The button resume function cannot be disabled. The Standby or Hibernation (Save-to-
Disk) mode should not be used with cer-
tain PC Cards. Check your PC Card doc-
umentation for more information. When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode cannot return to the exact state prior to suspen-
sion, because all of the peripheral devices will be re-initialized when the system restarts. If your notebook is actively accessing information when you enter the Standby or Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Standby mode or the memory is transferred to the internal hard drive during Hibernation mode. The main advantage of using Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is particularly important if you will be leaving your notebook 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. HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) FEATURE The Hibernation feature saves your systems memory contents to the hard drive as a part of the Suspend/
Resume mode. You can enable or disable this feature. Eagle E8310.book Page 33 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM Enable or Disable the Hibernation Feature Windows Vista:
The default settings are not enabled. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these steps:
1. From the Start menu, select Control Panel, then select Power Options. 2. Select 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 XP:
The default settings are not enabled. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these steps:
1. From the Start menu, select Settings, and then select Control Panel. 2. From the Control Panel select Power Options. 3. Select the Hibernate tab. Select the box to enable or disable this feature. 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 timeout values to turn off the display and hard disks whether you are running the notebook on battery power or on an adapter. RESTARTING THE SYSTEM If your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure. Windows Vista:
1. Click the Start button, and then move the mouse over the right arrow. 2. Select Restart from the list. Windows XP:
1. Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down. 2. Select the Restart option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box. 3. Click OK to restart your notebook. Your notebook will shut down and then reboot. Turning off your notebook without exiting Windows, or turning it on within 10 seconds of being shut off may cause an error when you start the next time. G e t t i n g S t a r t e d POWERING OFF Before turning off the power, check that the hard drive/
optical drive access indicator is off. If you turn off the power while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your notebook shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down procedure. Be sure to close all files, exit all applica-
tions, 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. Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your notebook to complete its operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
1. Click the [Start] button, and then click [Shut Down]. 2. Select the Shut Down option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box. (In Vista, select the small arrow at the bottom right of the menu, then select Shut Down.) 3. Click [OK] to shut down your notebook. If you are going to store your notebook for a month or more see Care and Maintenance Section. 33 Eagle E8310.book Page 34 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k 34 Eagle E8310.book Page 35 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 4 User-Installable Features 35 Eagle E8310.book Page 36 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k 36 Eagle E8310.book Page 37 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM Lithium ion Battery Your LifeBook notebook has a Lithium ion battery that provides power for operating your notebook 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 exceeds a low of 5C or a high of 35C. Extreme temperatures not only reduce charging efficiency, but can also cause battery deterioration. The Charging icon on the Status Indi-
cator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range.
(See Battery Charging Indicators on page 13 for more information) When using a high current device such as a modem, Multi-Format DVD Writer, CD-ROM drive, DVD/
CD-RW combo drive, or the hard drive, using the AC adapter will conserve your battery life. Do not leave a faulty battery in your LifeBook notebook. It may damage your AC adapter, optional Auto/Airline adapter, another battery or your notebook itself. It may also prevent operation of your notebook by draining all available current into the bad battery. Actual battery life will vary based on screen brightness, applications, features, power management settings, battery condition and other customer preferences. CD-ROM drive, Multi-
Format DVD Writer, DVD/CD-RW drive combo, 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 put-
ting them in the trash. Please take care of our environment and dispose of bat-
teries properly. Check with your local government authority for details regard-
ing recycling or disposing of old batter-
ies. If you cannot find this information elsewhere, contact your support repre-
sentative at 1-800-8FUJITSU (1-800-
838-5487) U s e r I n s t a l l a b l e F e a t u r e s 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 notebook and connect the AC or Auto/Airline adapter. Make sure that the Battery Charging indicator and the percentage charge is shown inside the Battery Level icon on the Status Indicator Panel. 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 notebook is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your notebook into Suspend mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 32 for more information on Standby mode and shutdown procedure) Using heavy current devices such as the modem or frequent DVD/CD-RW/CD-
ROM accesses may prevent charging completely. Low Battery State When the battery is running low, a low battery notifica-
tion 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 notebook will go into Standby mode. There is no guarantee that your data will be saved once the notebook reaches this point. Once the low battery notification mes-
sage appears, you need to save all your active data and put your LifeBook note-
book into Standby 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 Standby mode there must always be at least one power source active. If you remove all power sources while your LifeBook notebook is in Standby mode, any data that has not been saved to the hard drive will be lost. 37 1. Plug an AC Adapter into the system and connect it to a power outlet. 1 2 3 Battery Lock Battery Pack Battery Release Button Figure 4-1. Removing a Battery 2. Follow steps 3 through 6 in Cold Swapping Batteries. If the Lithium ion battery connector is not fully seated, you may not be able to use your notebook or charge your battery. Eagle E8310.book Page 38 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indi-
cator just like the normal Standby mode. Once your notebook 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 button 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 notebook while an adapter is charging the battery. Shorted Batteries The Status Indicator panel uses a symbol inside the battery outline of the Battery Level indicator to display the operating level available in that battery. If this display shows a Shorted Battery, it means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it does not damage other parts of your LifeBook notebook. REPLACING THE BATTERY With the purchase of an additional battery, you can have a fully charged spare to swap with one that is not charged. There are two ways to swap batteries, cold-
swapping and hot-swapping:
Cold-swapping Batteries To cold-swap batteries in your battery bay follow these easy steps: (Figure 4-1) 1. Have a charged battery ready to install. 2. Shut down your notebook and disconnect the AC adapter. 3. While pushing the battery lock away from the battery pack, slide the battery release button towards the battery lock. While holding the battery lock button, lift the battery out of the bay using the orange notch next to the battery release button. Insert a new battery into the bay, and press it down so that the latches click into place. 4. 5. Plug in the AC adapter and turn the power on. Hot-swapping Batteries To hot-swap batteries in your battery bay follow these easy steps: (Figure 4-1) Be sure to plug in an AC Adapter prior to removing the battery. There is no bridge battery present to support the system while the battery is being replaced. If you do not use an AC Adapter you will lose any unsaved files. 38 Eagle E8310.book Page 39 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM U s e r I n s t a l l a b l e F e a t u r e s Emergency Tray Release Media Holder Tray Media Tray Eject Button Figure 4-2. Optical Drive Optical Drive There is a variety of media available to use with your system, depending upon the system configuration you have selected. Multi-Format DVD Writers, DVD/CD-
RW Combo drives, and DVD-ROM drives are collec-
tively known as optical drives. DVD-R and DVD-RW discs hold up to 4.7 GB of data
(DVD-R discs used with Multi-Format Dual-Layer DVD writer hold up to 8.5 GB). A DVD-R disc can only be written to once; DVD-RW discs can be written to over and over. DVD-R and DVD-RW discs can be played on most standard players. CD-R and CD-RW discs hold up to 640 MB of data. A CD-R disc can only be written to once; CD-RW discs can be written to over and over. Depending upon your notebook configuration, you may have one of the following optical drives:

Secure Digital Cards Your LifeBook notebook supports Memory Sticks and Secure Digital (SD) cards, on which you can store and transfer data to and from a variety of digital devices. These cards use flash memory architecture, which means they dont need a power source to retain data. Memory Stick is a flash memory technology that allows you to record, transfer and share digital content, such as digital pictures, movies, music, voice, and computer data and applications. Secure Digital (SD) Cards are very similar to Memory Sticks. Like Memory Sticks, SD Cards allow portable storage among a variety of devices, such as cell phones, GPS systems, digital cameras, and PDAs. SD Cards transfer data quickly, with low battery consumption. Like the memory stick, it uses flash memory architecture. INSTALLING MEMORY STICK/SD CARDS Memory Stick and SD Cards are inserted in the Memory Stick/SD Card slot (Figure 4-5). To insert a Memory Stick or SD Card, follow these steps:
Installing or removing a Memory Stick or SD Card during your LifeBook note-
books shutdown or bootup process may damage the card and/or your LifeBook notebook. Do not insert a card into a slot if there is water or any other substance on the card as you may permanently damage the card, your LifeBook notebook, or both. 1.

To increase your notebooks memory capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade must be a dual-in-line (DIMM) SDRAM module. To ensure 100% compatibility, purchase the SDRAM module only from the Fujitsu web store at www.shopfujitsu.com. Do not remove any screws from the memory upgrade module compartment except the ones specifically shown in the directions for installing and removing the memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade module can be severely damaged by electrostatic dis-
charge (ESD). To minimize risk to the module, observe the following precau-
tions:
Before handling a memory module, touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body. When installing or removing a memory module, hold it by the edge so as not to touch any contacts or chips. Be careful not to touch any internal computer terminals or components; the oil from your fingers could cause a short to the components. Be sure to power down your system before adding or removing memory modules. Even if the system is in hibernate or standby states, data could be lost or the memory could be damaged if power is still available to the system. INSTALLING MEMORY UPGRADE MODULES 1. Turn off power to your notebook, remove any power adapter (AC or auto/airline). Remove the battery. 2. Make sure that all the connector covers are closed. 3.

This section provides some tips for looking after the notebook and its devices. The system contains components that can be severely damaged by electro-
static discharge (ESD). To minimize risk to the components, observe the following precautions:
Before docking or undocking your LifeBook notebook (when using a port replicator), it is a good practice to always touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body. Be sure to power down your system before adding or removing system components. Even if the system is in hibernate or standby states, data could be lost or memory could be damaged if power is still available to the system. When installing or removing a memory module, hold it by the edge so as not to touch any contacts or chips. Be careful not to touch any internal computer terminals or compo-
nents; the oil from your fingers could cause a short to the components. Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operations of this product or similar products, must always be super-
vised by an adult. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical products and do not permit them to handle any cables. Caring for your LifeBook notebook Your LifeBook notebook is a durable but sensitive elec-
tronic device. Treat it with respect and care. Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying case. Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Always follow installation instructions closely. Keep it away from food and beverages. To protect your notebook from damage and to opti-
mize system performance, be sure to keep all air all vents unobstructed, clean, and clear of debris. This may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the environment in which the system is used. C a r e a n d M a i n t e n a n c e Do not operate the notebook in areas where the air vents can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or on soft surfaces like a bed or cushion. If you accidentally spill liquid on your LifeBook note-
book:
1. Turn it off. 2. Position it so that the liquid can run out. 3. Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed. 4. If your notebook will not boot after it has dried out, call your support representative. Do not use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook in a wet environment (near a bathtub, swimming pool). Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are approved for your notebook. Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other environmental hazards. Do not expose your notebook to direct sunlight for long periods of time as temperatures above 140 F (60 C) may damage your notebook. Keep the covers closed on the connectors and slots when they are not in use. Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer. If you are carrying your LifeBook notebook in a brief-
case, or any other carrying case, make sure that there are no objects in the case pressing on the lid. Never position your notebook such that the optical drive is supporting the weight of the notebook. Do not drop your notebook. Do not touch the screen with any sharp objects. Cleaning your LifeBook notebook Always disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not the cord.) Clean your LifeBook notebook with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Use a soft cloth to remove dust from the screen. Never use glass cleaners. Storing your LifeBook notebook If storing your notebook for a month or longer, turn your LifeBook notebook off, fully charge the battery(s), then remove and store all Lithium ion batteries. Store your notebook and batteries separately. If you store your LifeBook with a battery installed, the battery will discharge, and battery life will be reduced. In addi-
tion, a faulty battery might damage your LifeBook. 65 Eagle E8310.book Page 66 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k Store your Fujitsu LifeBook in a cool, dry location. Temperatures should remain between 13F (-25C) and 140F (60C). BATTERIES Caring for your Batteries Always handle batteries carefully. Traveling with your LifeBook notebook Do not transport your notebook while it is turned on. You should carry your notebook with you while travel-
ing, rather than checking it in as baggage. Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals with a metal object). Do not carry lose batteries in a pocket or purse where they may mix with coins, keys, or other metal objects. Doing so may cause an explosion or fire. Always bring your System Recovery CD that came with Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate or incin-
your notebook when you travel. If you experience sys-
tem software problems while traveling, you may need it to correct any problems. Never put your notebook through a metal detector. Have your notebook hand-inspected by security per-
sonnel. You can however, put your notebook through a properly tuned X-ray machine. To avoid problems, place your notebook close to the entrance of the machine and remove it as soon as possible or have your notebook hand-inspected by security personnel. Secu-
rity officials may require you to turn your notebook On. Make sure you have a charged battery on hand. When traveling with the hard drive removed, wrap the drive in a non-conducting materials (cloth or paper). If you have the drive checked by hand, be ready to install the drive if needed. Never put your hard drive through a metal detector. Have your hard drive hand-inspected by security personnel. You can however, put your hard drive through a properly tuned X-ray machine. Take the necessary plug adapters if you're traveling over-
seas. Check the following diagram to determine which plug adapter you'll need or ask your travel agent. Outlet Type Location United States, Canada, parts of Latin America, Mexico, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Taiwan Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), most of Europe, parts of Latin America, the Middle East, parts of Africa, Hong Kong, India, most of South Asia United Kingdom, Ireland, Malaysia, Singapore, parts of Africa China, Australia, New Zealand 66 erate the battery. Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and only in ventilated areas. Do not leave batteries in hot locations for more than a day or two. Intense heat can shorten battery life. Do not leave a battery in storage for longer than 6 months without recharging it. Increasing Battery Life Power your LifeBook notebook through the AC or optional auto/airline adapter whenever possible. If your notebook is running on battery power all day, connect it to the AC adapter overnight to recharge the battery. Keep brightness to the lowest level comfortable. Set the power management for maximum battery life. Put your notebook in Suspend mode when it is turned on and you are not actually using it. Limit your media drive access. Disable the Media Player auto insert notification function. Always use fully charged batteries. Eject PCMCIATM Cards when not in use. FLOPPY DISKS AND DRIVES Caring for your Floppy Disks If you have an optional external floppy disk drive:
Avoid using the floppy disks in damp and dusty locations. Never store a floppy disk near a magnet or magnetic field. Do not use a pencil or an eraser on a disk or disk label. Avoid storing the floppy disks in extremely hot or cold locations, or in locations subject to severe temperature changes. Store at temperatures between 50 F (10C) and 125F (52C). Eagle E8310.book Page 67 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM Do not touch the exposed part of the disk behind the metal shutter. Never use the floppy disk drive with any liquid, metal, or other foreign matter inside the floppy disk drive or disk. Never disassemble your floppy disk drive. MEDIA CARE Caring for your Media (DVD/CD/CD-R) Media discs are precision devices and will function reli-
ably if given reasonable care. Always store your media disc in its case when it is not in use. Always handle discs by the edges and avoid touching the surface. Avoid storing any media discs in extreme temperatures. Do not bend media discs or set heavy objects on them. Do not spill liquids on media discs. Do not scratch media discs. Do not get dust on media discs. Never write on the label surface with a ballpoint pen or pencil. Always use a felt pen. If a media disc is subjected to a sudden change in tem-
perature, cold to warm condensation may form on the surface. Wipe the moisture off with a clean, soft, lint free cloth and let it dry at room temperature. DO NOT use a hair dryer or heater to dry media discs. If a disc is dirty, use only a DVD/CD cleaner or wipe it with a clean, soft, lint free cloth starting from the inner edge and wiping to the outer edge. C a r e a n d M a i n t e n a n c e
Caring for your Optical Drive Your optical drive is durable but you must treat it with care. Please pay attention to the following points:
The drive rotates the compact disc at a very high speed. Do not carry it around or subject it to shock or vibration with the power on. Avoid using or storing the drive where it will be exposed to extreme temperatures. Avoid using or storing the drive where it is damp or dusty. Avoid using or storing the drive near magnets or devices that generate strong magnetic fields. Avoid using or storing the drive where it will be subjected to shock or vibration. Do not disassemble or dismantle the optical drive. Use of a commercially available lens cleaner is recommended for regular maintenance of your drive. PC CARDS/EXPRESSCARDS Caring for your Cards PC Cards and ExpressCards are durable, but you must treat them with care. The documentation supplied with your card will provide specific information, but you should pay attention to the following points:
To keep out dust and dirt, store cards in their protective sleeves when they are not installed in your LifeBook notebook. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive heat. Keep the cards dry. Do not flex or bend the cards, and do not place heavy objects on top of them. Do not force cards into the slot. Avoid dropping cards, or subjecting them to excessive vibration. 67 Eagle E8310.book Page 68 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k 68 Eagle E8310.book Page 69 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 7 System Specifications 69 Eagle E8310.book Page 70 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k 70 Eagle E8310.book Page 71 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM S p e c i f i c a t i o n s Specifications This section provides the hardware and environmental specifications for your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook.

erly set up and configure the integrated Wireless LAN Mini-PCI device (referred to as "WLAN device" in the rest of the manual). Before using the WLAN device, read this manual carefully to ensure it's correct operation. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. Wireless LAN Device Covered by this Document This document is applicable to systems containing one of the following two devices. Most of the procedures are identical. Sections that differ between the two devices have been noted in the text:
Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (WM3945ABG) Network Connection (802.11a+b/g) Atheros AR5006EXS (AR5BXB6) Mini-Card Wireless network card (802.11a+b/g) Characteristics of the WLAN Device The WLAN device is a Mini-PCI card attached to the main board of the mobile computer. It operates in two license-free RF bands, therefore eliminating the need to procure an FCC license to operate. It operates in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) RF band and in the lower and middle bands of the 5GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) bands. The WLANs are capable of three operating modes, IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g, wireless LAN standards governed by the IEEE (Institute of Electronics and Elec-
trical Engineers). Encoding of data is modulated using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Comple-
mentary Code Keying (CCK) when the WLAN device is operating in IEEE 802.11b mode and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Figure A-1. Ad Hoc Mode Network
(OFDM) when operating in IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11g mode. The WLAN device is Wi-Fi certified and operates at the maximum data transfer rate of 54 Mbps in IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11g mode and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode. The WLAN device supports the following encryption methods - WEP, TKIP, and AES encryption. WIRELESS LAN MODES USING THIS DEVICE Ad Hoc Mode
(See Figure A-1) "Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connec-
tivity 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 authenti-
cation, and encryption key settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network. Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode
(See Figure A-2) Infrastructure mode refers to a wireless network architecture in which devices communicate with wireless or wired network devices by communi-
cating 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). 88 Eagle E8310.book Page 89 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM W I r e l e s s L A N U s e r s G u i d e 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. WIRELESS NETWORK CONSIDERATIONS The WLAN devices support IEEE802.11a+b/g. DEACTIVATING THE WLAN DEVICE Deactivation of the WLAN device may be desired in certain circumstances (to extend battery life) or where certain environments require it (i.e. hospitals, clinics, airplanes, etc.). Fujitsu mobile computers employ two methods with which to deactivate the WLAN device:
Using the Wireless On/Off Switch, or, In Windows XP, using the Intel PROSet Software or Atheros Client Utility software. The devices operate in the 2.4GHz ISM band the 5 GHz lower and middle UNII bands. The maximum range of the WLAN device indoors is typically 80 feet (25 meters). Please note that the maximum range you achieve may be shorter or longer than 80 feet, depending on factors such as access point transmit power, number and density of obstructions, or external RF interference. Microwave ovens will interfere with the operation of WLAN device as microwave ovens operate in the same 2.4GHz frequency range that IEEE802.11b/g devices operate in. 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 frequency range may interfere with the operation of WLAN devices in IEEE802.11b/g modes. Inter-
ference symptoms include reduced throughput, intermittent disconnects, and large amounts of frame errors. It is HIGHLY recommended that interfering devices be powered off to ensure proper operation of the WLAN. Figure A-2. Access Point
(Infrastructure) Mode Network Internet ADSL modem, cable modem, or similar Before using the wireless LAN device, you must first install ClickMe! to ensure that the correct software for your device is installed. (See Installing Click Me! on page 28 for more information) Deactivation using the Wireless On/Off Switch The WLAN device can be deactivated quickly and effi-
ciently by toggling the Wireless On/Off Switch to the Off position. (Figure A-3) The Wireless On/Off switch has no effect on non-Wire-
less LAN models. WLAN Switch Figure A-3. Wireless LAN On/Off Switch Wired LAN Access Point*

Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution Unavailable network connection Incorrect network name (SSID) or network key Ad hoc connection: verify that the network names (SSIDs) and network keys (WEP) of all computers to be connected have been configured correctly. SSIDs and WEP key values must be identical on each machine. Access Point (Infrastructure) connection: set the network name (SSID) and network key to the same values as those of the access point. Set the Network Authentication value identically to that of the Access Point (See Configuring the WLAN Using Windows XP on page 91 for more information). Please consult your network administrator for this value, if necessary. Ad hoc connection: Retry connection after shortening the distance to the destination computer or removing any obstacles for better sight. Access Point (Infrastructure) connection: Retry connection after short-
ening the distance to the access point or removing any obstacles for better sight. To check the wave condition, refer to the following page: Confirming the status of the radio waves on page 96. Check if the wireless switch is turned ON. Also verify Disable Radio is not checked in Network setting window. Check if the computer to be connected is turned ON. Weak received signal strength and/or link quality The WLAN device has been deactivated or disabled The computer to be connected is turned off RF interference from Access Points or other wireless networks The use of identical or overlapping RF channels can cause interference with the operation of the WLAN device. Change the channel of your Access Point to a channel that does not overlap with the interfering device. Wireless network authentication has failed Re-check your Network Authentication, Encryption, and Security settings. Incorrectly configured security settings such as an incorrectly typed WEP key, a mis-configured LEAP username, or an incorrectly chosen authentication method will cause the LAN device to associate but not authenticate to the wireless network. Incorrectly configured network settings Recheck the configuration of your network settings. For the method of checking, refer to the following page:Connection to the Network on page 94. Incorrect IP address configuration This only applies to networks using static IP addresses. Please contact your network administrator for the correct settings. 97 Eagle E8310.book Page 98 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E S e r i e s N o t e b o o k - A p p e n d i x A WLAN Specifications SPECIFICATIONS Item Type of network Transfer rate Active frequency Typical operating distances**

You will also be led through the procedure of enrolling your first user into OmniPass. U s i n g t h e F i n g e r p r i n t S e n s o r INTRODUCING THE FINGERPRINT SENSOR DEVICE Your system has an optional fingerprint sensor device below the Touchpad, between the left and right buttons. This also serves as a scroll button. (Figure 1) Figure A-1 Fingerprint sensor Although the system may have a fingerprint sensor in place of a scroll button, the fingerprint sensor can be used for scrolling. Simply move your fingerprint over the sensor the same as you would use a scroll button. With a fingerprint sensor, you can avoid having to enter a username and password every time you want to:
Log onto Windows Recover from Standby mode Cancel a password-protected screen saver Log into homepages that require a username and pass-
word After you have enrolled - or registered - your finger-
print, 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. The use of OmniPass results in a secure authentication system for restricting access to your computer, applica-
tions, websites, 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 INSTALLING OMNIPASS If OmniPass has already been installed on your system, skip this section and go directly to User Enrollment on page 104. You can determine whether OmniPass has already been installed by checking to see if the following are present:
The presence of the gold key-shaped OmniPass icon in the system tray at the bottom right of the screen. The presence of 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 (OSs). The minimum requirements are as follows:
Windows XP Professional operating system 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 104. (If you have run the ClickMe! utility, it is likely that OmniPass has already been installed on your system.) Otherwise continue with this section on software installation. 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. To install OmniPass on your system you must:
1. Insert the installation media for the OmniPass appli-
cation 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. 2. Follow the directions provided in the OmniPass installation program. Specify a location to which you would like OmniPass installed. It is recom-
mended that you NOT install OmniPass in the root directory (e.g. C:\). 3. Once 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. The installation program automatically places an icon
(Softex OmniPass) in the Windows Control Panel as well as a golden key shaped icon in the taskbar. 103 Eagle E8310.book Page 104 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k A p p e n d i x B 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:
1. From 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, select Settings, and click Control Panel (if you are using Windows XP you will see the Control Panel directly in the Start menu;
click it, then click Switch to Classic View). 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. 2. Select the About tab at the top of the OmniPass Control Panel. The About tab window appears with version information about OmniPass. Uninstalling OmniPass Before you uninstall the software, decrypt all OmniPass encrypted files and export all OmniPass User Profiles. Failure to do so may result in permanent loss of encrypted file data, and permanent loss of all remembered passwords and associated information (see Chapter 5 of the OmniPass help document:: Exporting and Importing Users). 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. To remove the OmniPass application from your system:
1. Click Start on the Windows taskbar. Select Settings, and then Control Panel. 2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs. 3. Select OmniPass, and then click Change/Remove. 4. Follow the directions to uninstall the OmniPass application. 5. Once OmniPass has finished uninstalling, reboot your system when prompted. 104 USER ENROLLMENT Before you can use any OmniPass features you must first enroll a user into OmniPass. Master Password Concept Computer resources are often protected with passwords. Whether you are logging into your computer, accessing your email, e-banking, paying bills online, or accessing network resources, you often have to supply credentials to gain access. This can result in dozens of sets of creden-
tials that you have to remember. During OmniPass 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 websites 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 were to go to an Internet cafe 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 where he enrolled that OmniPass user, 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. Basic Enrollment The Enrollment Wizard will guide you through the process of enrolling a user. Unless you specified other-
wise, 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. Eagle E8310.book Page 105 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 1. Click Enroll to proceed to username and password verification. By default, the OmniPass Enrollment Wizard enters the credentials of the currently logged in Windows user. 2. Enter 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 corpo-
rate environment, or when accessing corporate resources, the Domain: may not be your Windows computer name. Click [Next] to continue. In this step OmniPass captures your fingerprint. Refer to Enrolling a Fingerprint on page 105 for additional information. 3. 4. Next, 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. 5. Click [Done] to exit the OmniPass Enrollment Wizard. You will be asked if youd 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. 1. During 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]. It 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. 2. Your system has a swipe fingerprint sensor. A swipe sensor is small and resembles a skinny elon-
gated rectangle. To capture a fingerprint, gently U s i n g t h e F i n g e r p r i n t S e n s o r 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. 3. Once OmniPass has successfully acquired the finger-
print, the Verify Fingerprint screen will automati-
cally 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 Veri-
fication Successful under the capture window. USING OMNIPASS You are now ready to begin using OmniPass. Used regu-
larly, 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 standby or hibernate, when unlocking a password-enabled screensaver, during pass-
word 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 unse-
lected 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 finger-
print capture window or your master password for the master password prompt (the key icon). 105 Eagle E8310.book Page 106 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k A p p e n d i x B Remembering a Password OmniPass can remember any application, GUI, or pass-
word 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 pass-
word), 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 this OmniPass cursor in the login prompt area, but do not click the
[Login] or [Submit] button. 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. 106 If you uncheck both boxes in Settings for this Password Site, OmniPass will prompt you for your master pass-
word 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 proce-
dure. 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 Pass-
word 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 websites, 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 pass-
word 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. In Windows XP, your login options must be set either for classic login, or for fast user switching and logon screen to be enabled to use your fingerprint to log on to Windows. To change this go to Control Panel, select User Accounts and then click Change the way users log on or off. If your Windows screensaver is password protected, the fingerprint capture window will now appear next to screensaver password dialog during resume. You can authenticate to your screensaver pass-
word prompt with your enrolled finger. Eagle E8310.book Page 107 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 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 Manage-
ment; you will be prompted to authenticate. Once you gain access to Vault Management, click Manage Pass-
words 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 Pass-
word 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 the resetting of your Windows password. If your password is reset in Windows, then the next time you login to Windows, OmniPass will detect the password change and prompt you to Update or Reconfirm your password with OmniPass. Enter your new Windows password in the prompt(s) and click OK and 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 Manage-
ment; 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 click [Apply]. U s i n g t h e F i n g e r p r i n t S e n s o r When you delete an identity, all of its associated remembered sites and password protected dialogs are lost. 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 automati-
cally 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 user-
name 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 you wish to login as and then click OK to login. Switch User Identity To switch identities at any time, right-click the OmniPass system tray icon and click Switch User Iden-
tity 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 pass-
words 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 107. CONFIGURING OMNIPASS This section gives an overview of both the Export/
Import function and the OmniPass Control Center. Exporting and Importing Users Using the OmniPass Control Center, you can export and import users in and out of OmniPass. The export process backs up all remembered sites, credentials, and any 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. 107 Eagle E8310.book Page 108 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k A p p e n d i x B 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 remem-
bered 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. 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 authenti-
cation, 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 You cannot import a user into OmniPass if there already is a user with the same name enrolled in OmniPass. 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 dont 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. 108 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 cre-
dentials 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 sys-
tem. I export Toms 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 "Sun-
shine". 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, pro-
vided that a user with that name is not already enrolled in OmniPass. If you attempt to import a user profile who has the same name as a user already enrolled in OmniPass, the OmniPass import function will fail. OMNIPASS CONTROL CENTER This section will serve to explain functions within the OmniPass Control Center that werent explained earlier. You can access the OmniPass Control Center any of three ways:
Double-click the golden OmniPass key shaped icon in the Windows system tray (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 107. 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 104. 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. Eagle E8310.book Page 109 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM 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 are sure about removing the user, we recommend you export the user profile. User Settings The User Settings tab has four interfaces: Audio Settings, Taskbar Tips, and Enrollment. User settings allow users to customize OmniPass to suit their individual prefer-
ences. Under User Settings (Audio Settings and Taskbar Tips) you can set how OmniPass notifies the user of OmniPass events (e.g., successful login, access denied, etc.). The details of each setting under the Audio Settings and Taskbar Tips interfaces are self-explana-
tory. The Enrollment interface allows you to enroll finger-
prints. 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 system tray icon and clicking Log in User from the right-click menu. U s i n g t h e F i n g e r p r i n t S e n s o r 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 secu-
rity 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 Authen-
ticate 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 proce-
dure 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 pass-
words to console login only. This setting should be set to Disabled. Dialog appears after OmniPass authentication during Windows Logon After installing OmniPass on your system, you can choose to logon to Windows using OmniPass. You authenticate with OmniPass (via master password, or an enrolled security device) and OmniPass logs you into Windows. You may, during this OmniPass authentication, see a Login Error dialog box. This dialog box occurs when OmniPass was unable to log you into Windows with the credentials supplied
(username and password). This could happen if your Windows password has changed or 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. 109 Eagle E8310.book Page 110 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM L i f e B o o k E 8 0 0 0 N o t e b o o k A p p e n d i x B 110 Eagle E8310.book Page 111 Tuesday, May 8, 2007 11:40 AM Index A About This Guide . 1 AC adapter . 27 indicator . 12 plug adapters . 66 Anti-theft lock slot . 10 Application Panel . 20 Auto/Airline Adapter . 27 I n d e x D DC Power Jack . 27 Device Ports . 46, 72 DIMM . 44 Disk care . 66 Display Panel . 6, 28 adjusting . 28 brightness . 28 closing . 28 latch . 6 opening . 28 problems . 57, 58 Automatically Downloading Driver Updates . 62 Display Timeout . 33 B Battery . 37 alarm . 37 care . 66 charging indicator . 13 cold-swapping . 38 conserving power . 32 dead . 56 faulty . 56 increasing life . 66 level indicators . 12 lithium ion battery . 37 low . 37 problems . 56 recharging . 37 replacing . 38 shorted . 38 suspend mode . 37 BIOS guide . 30 setup utility . 29 Bluetooth, where to find information . 99 Built-in Speakers . 52 C CapsLock . 13 CD-ROM . 39 problems . 52, 53 Click Me!
