REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTION. FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK OF FIRE, REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME TYPE AND RATING FUSE. Recycling your battery Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time; this is a natural occurrence for all batteries. When this occurs, you may want to replace the battery with a fresh one*. If you replace it, it is important that you dispose of the old battery properly because batteries contain materials that could cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly. Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC)**, a non-profit public service organization dedicated to protecting our environment by recycling old batteries at no cost to you. RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout the United States and Canada. To find the location nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org or call 1-800-822-8837. If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative website (http://EIAE.org/) and search for a convenient disposal location. Remember protecting the environment is a cooperative effort, and you should make every effort to protect it for current and future generations.

(See Figure 8) Adjusting Display Panel Brightness Once you have turned on your notebook, you may want to adjust the brightness level of the screen to a more comfortable viewing level. There are three ways to adjust the brightness: keyboard, power management utility, and Fujitsu Menu. 26 - Display Panel Using Keyboard to Adjust Brightness Adjusting the brightness using the keyboard changes the system setting (i.e., the settings you make via the function keys automatically changes the brightness settings in the systems Tablet and Pen Settings).
[Fn]+[(9]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness of your display.
[Fn]+[)0]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the brightness of the display. Using Power Management to Adjust Brightness To adjust brightness with the power management utility in Windows 7:
Click Start -> Control Panel. In View by:, select one of the icon views. Select Display, then click Adjust brightness in the left pane. Drag the Screen brightness: bar to the left or right, depending upon your preference. Using the Fujitsu Menu to Adjust Brightness To adjust brightness using the Fujitsu menu, click on the Fujitsu Menu icon in the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen. (You can also open the Fujitsu menu by clicking the [Fn] button twice in succession.) Double-click Windows Mobility Center, then double-click the icon adjacent to Display brightness. Set the screen brightness sliders for On battery and Plugged in scenarios. IF USING AC POWER, YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTING IS SET TO ITS HIGHEST LEVEL BY DEFAULT. IF USING BATTERY POWER, YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTINGS IS SET TO APPROXIMATELY MID-LEVEL BY DEFAULT. THE HIGHER THE BRIGHTNESS LEVEL, THE MORE POWER THE NOTEBOOK WILL CONSUME AND THE FASTER YOUR BATTERIES WILL DISCHARGE. FOR MAXIMUM BATTERY LIFE, MAKE SURE THAT THE BRIGHTNESS IS SET AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. Using the Fujitsu Zoom Utility - TBD Your computer has a handy Fujitsu Zoom utility that lets you magnify portions of the screen or all of the screen. 27 - Display Panel The Fujitsu Zoom utility has a magnifying glass icon in the Windows notification area of the Windows taskbar. You can zoom in (magnify) or zoom out (1280 x 800 resolution) by double-clicking on the icon and selecting the desired action, then using the Window key + a (default). You may select another key combination from the dropdown list in Keyboard shortcut. Button II is also assigned to zoom in/out with each press. Handling the System Your LifeBook UH900 notebook is designed to be handheld or used on a secure surface. When holding the notebook, use the following methods for optimal results. DO NOT USE THE NOTEBOOK ON YOUR LAP. USING IT ON YOUR LAP WILL BLOCK THE AIR VENTS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM AND ALSO CAN REDUCE THE RF EXPOSURE SAFETY DISTANCE DURING RADIO OPERATION. To use your LifeBook, place it on a flat, secure surface or hold it with both hands. Note that when holding the system, most of the keying will be done with the thumbs, since the fingers are used to hold the device. If you hold the system with one hand, grasp it securely to prevent it from slipping. 28 - Display Panel Keyboard Function Keys Numeric Keys CpsLck Caps Lock Fn Key Alt Key Start Key External Display.

Start Key Your LifeBook notebook Start key displays the Start menu. This button functions the same as your onscreen Start menu button. (Please refer to your Windows documentation for additional information regarding the Windows keys.) 29 - Keyboard Cursor Keys The cursor keys are the four arrow keys on the keyboard which are used in conjunction with the [Fn} key to 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). Function Keys Your LifeBook notebook has 6 function keys, F1/F7, F2/F8, F3/F9, F4/F10, F5/F11, and F6/F12. The functions assigned to these keys differ for each application. You should refer to your software documentation to find out how these keys are used. Due to the ultra-mobile design of the system and keyboard, some of the functions that are normally assigned to function keys have been reassigned to other keys, as noted below:
The [Fn] key provides extended functions for the notebook and is always used in conjunction with another key. Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness of your display. Pressing repeatedly will increase the brightness of the display.

(down) Cursor Control Figure 10. Cursor Buttons The button array on your LifeBook notebook is used to control the movement of the cursor and to select items on your display panel. The buttons consist of a cursor control at the top right above the keyboard, left and right buttons on the top left, and scroll buttons on the right of the display. The cursor control works the same way a mouse does by moving the cursor around the display. It only requires light pressure with the tip of your finger, and the more pressure you use, the faster the cursor will move. Note that the cursor control can be used in the same manner as the left button; first use it to position the cursor, then tap on it to activate your selection. The left button functions the same as a left mouse button while the right button has the same function as a right mouse button. The scroll buttons allow you to scroll up and down a screen. 31 - Using the Cursor Buttons 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. You can also left-click by moving the cursor to the item you wish to select, then tapping the cursor control once. To right-
click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the Right button once, and then immediately release it. Double-Clicking Double-clicking means quickly pushing and releasing the left button twice. This procedure does not function with the right button. To double-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, then press and release the left button twice. You can also double-click by moving the cursor to the item you wish to select, then double-
tapping the cursor control. Figure 11. Clicking Figure 12. Double-clicking
IF THE INTERVAL BETWEEN CLICKS IS TOO LONG, THE DOUBLE-CLICK WILL NOT BE EXECUTED.
PARAMETERS FOR THE BUTTONS CAN BE ADJUSTED FROM THE MOUSE DIALOG BOX LOCATED IN THE WINDOWS CONTROL PANEL. 32 - Using the Cursor Buttons Dragging Dragging means pressing and holding the left button, while moving the cursor control. 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. Scrolling Use the Scrolling buttons on the right side of the display to navigate through a document quickly without using the window scroll bars. This is particularly useful when you are navigating through on-line pages. To scroll, press and hold the scroll up or scroll down button, depending upon which direction you want to scroll. Figure 13. Dragging Scroll up Scroll down Figure 14. Scrolling Button Control Adjustment Going to Control Panel > Mouse allows you to customize your cursor buttons with selections made via the Mouse Properties dialog box. There are four aspects of button operation that you can adjust:
Buttons: This tab lets you set up the buttons for right or left handed operation, in addition to setting up the time interval allowed between clicks in double-clicking.
Pointers: This tab lets you set up the scheme for the cursor depending on its functionality.
Pointer Options: This tab lets you set up a relation between the speed of your finger motion and the speed of the cursor. It also allows you to enable a Pointer Trail for the cursor arrow.
Stick: This tab allows you to change the cursor control speed and functionality. 33 - Using the Cursor Buttons Using the Touch Screen The integrated Touch Screen allows you to use your finger or a stylus as a pointing device. You can click, double-click, drag items and icons, or to draw like a pen or pencil in applications that support this behavior, such as drawing or painting programs. See the documentation that came with your application for details. Figure 15. Using the touch screen

See Power On Self Test Messages on page 73. 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.
You resume operation from Hibernation mode.
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.

ClickMe!
BEFORE INSTALLING THE CLICKME! UTILITY, BE SURE THE WIRELESS LAN DEVICE IS ENABLED BY PRESSING THE [FN] + [F5] KEY COMBINATION. The first time you boot up your system, you will see an icon called Click Me! in the Start menu. It is very important that you run the ClickMe! utility the first time you boot up in order to ensure that the necessary applications, utilities. and drivers are installed. 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. When you install the ClickMe! utility, several applications and utilities are installed; this takes time. While ClickMe! is installing, the system may go into Suspend mode. If this should occur, slide the Power/Suspend/Resume button momentarily to wake the system up. Alternately, while ClickMe! is installing, slide your finger across the touchpad every few minutes to keep the system awake. IN ADDITION TO THE UTILITIES AND APPLICATIONS INSTALLED BY CLICKME!, OTHER THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS MAY NEED TO BE INSTALLED FROM THE INCLUDED CDS/DVDS. 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 information about the FDU utility, refer to Automatically Downloading Driver Updates on page 79. 47 - Starting Your LifeBook Notebook Power Management Your LifeBook notebook has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features are automatic and need no user intervention. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your operating conditions, such as those for the display brightness. Internal power management for your 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 Sleep mode when it is not performing an operation, and you can limit the use of high power devices. As with all mobile, battery powered computers, there is a trade-off between performance and power savings. Power/Suspend/Resume Button When your notebook is active, the Power/Suspend/Resume button can be used to manually put the notebook into Sleep mode. Push the Power/Suspend/Resume button when the notebook is active, but not actively accessing anything, and immediately release the button. Note that if you press the button continuously for four seconds or longer, your notebook will shut down. 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 on the front edge of the system. If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your notebook is fully operational. If the indicator is visible and flashing, your notebook is in Sleep mode. If the indicator is not visible, the power is off or your notebook is in Hibernation mode. (See Hibernation Feature) Sleep Mode Sleep mode in Windows saves the contents of your system memory during periods of inactivity by maintaining power to critical parts. This mode turns off the CPU, display, hard drive, and all other internal components except those necessary to maintain system memory and for restarting. 48 - Power Management Your notebook can be put in Sleep mode by:
Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume button when your system is turned on.
Selecting Sleep (Standby in Windows XP) from the Windows Shut Down menu.
Timing out from lack of activity.
Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warning condition. System memory typically stores the files on which you are working, open application information, and any other data required to support operations in progress. When you resume operation from Sleep, your system will return to 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 RUNNING YOUR NOTEBOOK ON BATTERY POWER, BE AWARE THAT THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO DISCHARGE WHILE YOUR NOTEBOOK IS IN SLEEP 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 SLEEP OR HIBERNATION MODE. THE BUTTON RESUME FUNCTION CANT BE DISABLED. IF YOUR NOTEBOOK IS ACTIVELY ACCESSING INFORMATION WHEN YOU ENTER THE SLEEP OR HIBERNATION MODE, CHANGES TO OPEN FILES ARE NOT LOST. THE FILES ARE LEFT OPEN AND MEMORY IS KEPT ACTIVE DURING SLEEP MODE OR THE MEMORY IS TRANSFERRED TO THE INTERNAL HARD DRIVE DURING HIBERNATION MODE. THE MAIN ADVANTAGE OF USING HIBERNATION MODE 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 the contents of your notebooks system memory to the hard drive as a part of the Power/Suspend/Resume mode. You can enable or disable this feature. Enable or Disable the Hibernation Feature The default settings are not enabled. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these steps:
1 From the Start menu select Control Panel. 49 - Power Management 2 From the Control Panel select System and Security, then select Power Options.. 3 Select Choose what the power button does or Choose what closing the lid does, then make your selection
(Do Nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut Down). You can also go directly into Hibernate mode by going to the Start menu, clicking the small arrow to the right of the [Shut Down] button, then clicking on Hibernate. Windows Power Management When you go to the Control Panel -> System and Security -> Power Options, you can configure some power management settings. For example, you can use Power Options to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you are running the notebook on battery or one of the adapters. Restarting the System If your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure. 1 Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the small arrow the the right of the [Shut Down} button.. 2 Select Restart from the list. TURNING OFF YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK WITHOUT EXITING WINDOWS OR TURNING ON YOUR NOTEBOOK WITHIN 10 SECONDS OF THE NOTEBOOK BEING SHUT OFF MAY CAUSE AN ERROR WHEN YOU START THE NEXT TIME. 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 AND EXIT ALL APPLICATIONS 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. 50 - Power Management 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:
Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the [Shut Down] button at the bottom right of the right-hand pane. Click the button to shut down the system. If you are going to store your notebook for a month or more, see Care and Maintenance Section. ENERGY STAR Compliance Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR TBD qualified mobile PC. By choosing a computer with the latest energy-saving technology, youre helping to preserve our environment for future generations. ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Energy, Natural Resources Canada, and other governments around the world helping us save money while protecting the environment through energy efficient products and practices. With energy costs and global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is committed to offering solutions that help consumers conserve energy and improve the quality of our environment. Sleep Mode:
You will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 15 minutes of user inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. When going into Sleep mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To wake the computer from Sleep mode, press the Suspend/Resume Button. Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard equipment saving half in utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference for the environment. Did you know that the average house can be responsible for twice the greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? Thats because every time you flip on a light switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efficiency, the more we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming. 51 - Power Management To learn more about the important ENERGY STAR program, visit: www.energystar.gov.

http://www.computers.us.fujitsu.com/www/content/aboutus/environmental/environment.php 52 - Power Management Chapter 3 User-Installable Features 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 exceed 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 Indicator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range.
When using a high current device such as an external optical drive or the hard drive, using the AC adapter will conserve your battery life. DO NOT LEAVE A FAULTY BATTERY IN YOUR 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. 53
BATTERY LIFE WILL VARY BASED ON SCREEN BRIGHTNESS, APPLICATIONS, FEATURES, POWER MANAGEMENT SETTINGS, BATTERY CONDITION AND OTHER CUSTOMER PREFERENCES. OPTICAL DRIVE OR HARD DRIVE USAGE MAY ALSO HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON BATTERY LIFE. THE BATTERY CHARGING CAPACITY IS REDUCED AS THE BATTERY AGES. IF YOUR BATTERY IS RUNNING LOW QUICKLY, YOU SHOULD REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE.
UNDER FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL LAW IT MAY BE ILLEGAL TO DISPOSE OF BATTERIES BY PUTTING THEM IN THE TRASH. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF OUR ENVIRONMENT AND DISPOSE OF BATTERIES PROPERLY. CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY FOR DETAILS REGARDING RECYCLING OR DISPOSING OF OLD BATTERIES. IF YOU CANNOT FIND THIS INFORMATION ELSEWHERE, CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT REPRESENTATIVE AT 1-800-8FUJITSU (1-800-838-5487) Recharging the Batteries If you want to know the condition of the 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 PERCENTAGE CHARGE IS INDICATED BY THE BATTERY CHARGING INDICATOR 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 Sleep mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 48 for more information on Sleep mode and shutdown procedure) 54 - Lithium ion Battery USING HEAVY CURRENT DEVICES OR FREQUENT EXTERNAL OPTICAL DRIVE ACCESSES MAY PREVENT CHARGING COMPLETELY. Low Battery State When the battery is running low, a low battery notification message will appear. If you do not respond to the low battery message, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens, your notebook will go into Sleep mode. There is no guarantee that your data will be saved once the notebook reaches this point. ONCE THE LOW BATTERY NOTIFICATION MESSAGE APPEARS, YOU NEED TO SAVE ALL YOUR ACTIVE DATA AND PUT YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK INTO SLEEP MODE UNTIL YOU CAN PROVIDE A NEW POWER SOURCE. YOU SHOULD PROVIDE A CHARGED BATTERY, AN AC POWER ADAPTER, OR AUTO/AIRLINE ADAPTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. WHEN YOU ARE IN SLEEP MODE THERE MUST ALWAYS BE AT LEAST ONE POWER SOURCE ACTIVE. IF YOU REMOVE ALL POWER SOURCES WHILE YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK IS IN SLEEP MODE, ANY DATA THAT HAS NOT BEEN SAVED TO THE HARD DRIVE WILL BE LOST. Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Sleep 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 Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data can be maintained for some time, but if power is not provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop flashing and go out, resulting in loss of 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 indicator associated with the Battery Level indicator displays the operating level available in that battery. If this display shows a flashing red LED, it means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it does not damage other parts of your LifeBook notebook. 55 - Lithium ion Battery 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:

Shared key authentication 802.11 network authentication method in which the AP sends the client device a challenge text packet that the client must then encrypt with the correct WEP key and return to the AP. If the client has the wrong key or no key, authentication will fail and the client will not be allowed to associate with the AP. Shared key authentication is not considered secure, because a hacker who detects both the clear-
text challenge and the same challenge encrypted with a WEP key can decipher the key. SSID Service Set Identifier, a 32-character unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that acts as a password when a mobile device tries to connect to the BSS. The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. A device will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. Because the SSID is broadcast in plain text, it does not supply any security to the network. Standby To make inoperative for a period of time. Your LifeBook notebook uses various suspension states to reduce power consumption and prolong the charge of your battery.

The WLAN device is capable of three operating modes,IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11n
The WLAN device is Wi-Fi certified and operate (as applicable) at a the maximum data rate of 540 Mbps
(theoretical) in IEEE802.11n mode; 54 Mbps in IEEE802.11g mode; and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode.
The WLAN device supports the following encryption methods - WEP, TKIP, CKIP, and AES encryption.
The Wireless LAN device is compliant with the following standards: WPA, WPA2, CCX1.0, CCX2.0, CCX3.0, and CCX4.0. 114 Before Using the Wireless LAN Wireless LAN Modes Using this Device Ad Hoc Mode
"Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity between multiple computers is established without a central wireless network device, typically known as Access Point(s). Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peer fashion. That is why Ad Hoc networks are also known as peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hoc networks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity between multiple computers. Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryption key settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network. Figure 28. Ad Hoc Mode Network 115 Before Using the Wireless LAN Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode Infrastructure mode refers to a wireless network architecture in which devices communicate with wireless or wired network devices by communicating through an Access Point. In infrastructure mode, wireless devices can communicate with each other or with a wired network. Corporate wireless networks operate in infrastructure mode because they require access to the WLAN in order to access services, devices, and computers (e.g., file servers, printers, databases). Internet ADSL modem, cable modem, or similar Wired LAN Access Point*
Wireless LAN
*An optional hub for a wired LAN may be required depending upon the type of access point used. Figure 29. Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode Network 116 Before Using the Wireless LAN How to Handle This Device The WLAN device is a device that comes pre-installed in your mobile computer. Under normal circumstances, it should not be necessary for you to remove or re-install it. The operating system that your mobile computer comes with has been pre-configured to support the WLAN device.
The Atheros WLAN device supports EEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n.
The WLAN device operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and the 5 GHz lower, middle, and upper UNII bands.
Microwave ovens may interfere with the operation of WLAN devices since they operate in the same 2.4 GHz frequency range as IEEE802.11b/g/n devices.
Wireless devices that transmit in the 2.4 GHz range may interfere with operation of WLAN devices in IEEE802.11b/g/n modes. Symptoms of interference include reduced throughput, intermittent disconnects, and many frame errors. It is HIGHLY recommended that these interfering devices be powered off to ensure proper operation of the WLAN device. Deactivating/Disconnecting the WLAN Device Disconnecting 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.). The WLAN device can be deactivated by using the Wireless On/Off Switch, and it can be disconnected in Windows using the WLAN icon in the system tray (Note that disconnecting via the icon in the system tray does not turn off the radio;
it continues to transmit and receive even though its not connected.). BEFORE USING THE WIRELESS LAN DEVICE, YOU MUST FIRST INSTALL CLICKME! TO ENSURE THAT THE CORRECT SOFTWARE FOR YOUR DEVICE IS INSTALLED. SEE INSTALLING CLICKME! ON PAGE 47. IN ORDER TO RUN CLICKME!, THE WLAN SWITCH MUST BE IN THE ON POSITION. 117 Before Using the Wireless LAN Deactivation Using the Wireless On/Off Switch The WLAN device can be deacti-
vated quickly and efficiently by toggling the Wireless LAN/Blue-
tooth On/Off Switch to the Off position. The switch has no effect on non-Wireless LAN models. The switch is located on the left side of the system (Figure 30) WLAN/Bluetooth Switch Figure 30. Wireless LAN/Bluetooth On/Off Switch Location Disconnection Using the Icon in the Taskbar Note that disconnecting via the icon in the system tray does not turn off the radio; it continues to transmit and receive even though its not connected. 1 Right-click the WLAN icon in the taskbar at the bottom right of your screen. 2 Choose Disconnect from a network. Activating the WLAN Device Activation of the WLAN device can be accomplished using the same methods as the deactivation process
Using the Wireless On/Off Switch
Right-clicking the WLAN icon in the system tray, then clicking Connect to a network. 118 Before Using the Wireless LAN Configuring the Wireless LAN The WLAN device can be configured to establish wireless network connectivity using the software that is built into Windows. Support for most industry standard security solutions is contained in this software. Pre-defined parameters will be required for this procedure. Please consult with your network administrator for these parameters:
Configuring the WLAN Using Windows 1 Click the Start button, then select Control Panel. 2 If the Control Panel is not in icon view, select select one of the icon views in View by:. Click the Network and Sharing Center icon. 3 Select Connect to a network in the bottom panel. 4 Select one of the listed networks, then click [Connect]. 5 Follow the directions that appear. In the event you require assistance, go to the Network and Sharing Center window (Start -> Control Panel ->
Network and Sharing Center), and type in relevant keywords in the Search box. Connecting to a Network After you have configured your computer, you can connect to an active network by performing the following steps:
1 Click on the WLAN icon in the system tray. 2 Select Connect to a network. 3 Select a network from the list that appears, and click the [Connect] button. 119 Configuring the Wireless LAN Troubleshooting the WLAN Troubleshooting Causes and countermeasures for troubles you may encounter while using your wireless LAN are described in the following table. If you are unfamiliar with the steps required, consult your System Administrator or go to [Start] -> Help and Support -> Networking and the Web 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 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. 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 reception. Access Point (Infrastructure) connection: Retry connection after shortening the distance to the access point or removing any obstacles for better sight. Check if the wireless switch is turned On. Go to Start -> Control Panel, and double-click on Network and Sharing Center. Click the {Connect or disconnect] button. Weak received signal strength and/or link quality The WLAN device has been deactivated or disabled 120 Troubleshooting the WLAN Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution Unavailable network connection
(continued) The computer to be connected is turned off RF interference from Access Points or other wireless networks Wireless network authentication has failed Incorrectly configured network settings Incorrect IP address configuration Check if the computer to be connected is turned ON. 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. 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. Recheck the configuration of your network settings. This only applies to networks using static IP addresses. Please contact your network administrator for the correct settings. 121 Troubleshooting the WLAN WLAN Specifications Specifications Item Type of network Transfer rate Active frequency Typical operating distances**

77 - Power Management
IF RUNNING YOUR TABLET PC ON BATTERY POWER, BE AWARE THAT THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO DISCHARGE WHILE YOUR TABLET PC IS IN SLEEP MODE, THOUGH NOT AS QUICKLY AS WHEN FULLY OPERATIONAL. DISABLING THE POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME BUTTON PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USED TO PUT THE TABLET PC INTO SLEEP OR HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) MODE. THE BUTTON RESUME FUNCTION CANNOT BE DISABLED. THE SLEEP OR HIBERNATION MODE SHOULD NOT BE USED WITH CERTAIN EXPRESSCARDS. CHECK YOUR EXPRESSCARD DOCUMENTATION FOR MORE INFORMATION. WHEN EXPRESSCARDS OR EXTERNAL DEVICES ARE IN USE, HIBERNATION MODE CANNOT RETURN TO THE EXACT STATE PRIOR TO SUSPENSION, BECAUSE ALL OF THE PERIPHERAL DEVICES WILL BE RE-INITIALIZED WHEN THE SYSTEM RESTARTS. IF YOUR TABLET PC IS ACTIVELY ACCESSING INFORMATION WHEN YOU ENTER THE SLEEP OR HIBER-
NATION MODE, CHANGES TO OPEN FILES ARE NOT LOST. THE FILES ARE LEFT OPEN AND MEMORY IS KEPT ACTIVE DURING SLEEP MODE OR THE MEMORY IS TRANSFERRED TO THE INTERNAL HARD DRIVE DURING HIBERNATION MODE. THE MAIN ADVANTAGE OF USING HIBERNATION IS THAT POWER IS NOT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN YOUR DATA. THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IF YOU WILL BE LEAVING YOUR TABLET PC IN A SUSPENDED STATE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME. THE DRAWBACK OF USING HIBERNATION MODE IS THAT IT LENGTHENS THE POWER DOWN AND POWER UP SEQUENCES AND RESETS PERIPHERAL DEVICES. 78 - Power Management Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) Feature

MANY MOVIE RUN-TIMES ARE LONGER THAN YOUR SYSTEM CAN SUPPORT ON A SINGLE BATTERY. IF YOU ARE WATCHING A DVD MOVIE ON BATTERY POWER YOU MAY NEED TO SWAP IN AN ADDITIONAL, CHARGED BATTERY OR ATTACH AC POWER DURING THE MOVIE TO VIEW IT IN ITS ENTIRETY. AN ADDITIONAL FULLY-CHARGED BATTERY IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IF YOU WILL BE WATCHING DVD MOVIES ON BATTERY POWER. IF YOU DONT HAVE AN ADDITIONAL BATTERY, YOU MAY PURCHASE ONE EITHER ONLINE AT: HTTP://WWW.COMPUTERS.US.FUJITSU.COM OR BY CALLING 1-877-372-3473. To Watch a Movie on Battery Power:
1 Have an additional full-charged battery or your AC adapter ready for use. 2 Start watching your DVD movie. 3 When the low battery warning occurs, immediately stop the movie and exit the media player. IF YOU DO NOT STOP THE MEDIA PLAYER QUICKLY AND THE LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK ATTEMPTS TO AUTO-
SUSPEND (CRITICAL BATTERY LOW STATE) THE LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK WILL SHUT DOWN IMPROPERLY. IF THIS OCCURS, YOU MAY NEED TO PERFORM A HARD RESET AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS, IF ANY, PRESENTED TO YOU BEFORE THE SYSTEM WILL REBOOT. 4 Power down your notebook and replace the discharged battery with an additional fully-charged battery. If you do not have an additional battery, you may attach AC power as soon as you see the low battery warning. 5 Resume operation by pressing the Suspend button again. This is not required if you attached AC power without entering standby mode. 6 Restart your media player, locate and skip to the chapter of the movie you were last watching, then continue watching your DVD movie.

The volume is turned too low. The software volume control is set too low. Adjust the volume control on your Tablet PC and operating system. Use the [Fn+F9] key combination on your keyboard. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your Tablet PC. Manually adjusting the volume (i.e., keyboard "hot keys") should dynamically adjust the volume of the operating sys-
tem (see above). If that doesnt work, adjust the sound vol-
ume control settings in your software or application. Headphones are plugged into your Tablet PC. Plugging in headphones disables the built-in speakers. Remove the headphones. BIOS audio settings are incor-
rect. Set the BIOS setup utility to the default values within the Mul-
timedia Device Configuration menu. See BIOS Setup Utility on page 72. Software driver is not configured correctly. The speakers have been muted using the Volume icon in the system tray. The audio driver may be installed or reinstalled using the Drivers and Applications CD that came with your Fujitsu Life-
Book. Refer to your application and operating system docu-
mentation for help. Click on the Volume icon in the system tray on the bottom right of the screen. (It looks like a speaker). If the Mute box has a red circle on it, click on it to unselect it.

Optical Drive Problems (optional external device) LifeBook Tablet PC fails to recognize DVD/CD-
RW/CD-ROMs. The disc is not pushed down onto raised center circle of the drive. Open optical drive tray and re-install the disc properly. 108 - Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Possible Solutions LifeBook Tablet PC fails to recognize DVD/CD-
RW/CD-ROMs. Optical drive tray is not latched shut.
Incorrect DVD Player or no DVD Player software is installed. Wrong drive designator was used for the disc in the appli-
cation. Push on the front of the optical drive tray until it latches. If that doesnt work, pull out the modular drive latch to remove the device from the bay, then re-insert the drive until it latched; this ensures that the drive is properly seated. Install DVD Player software. (See Media Player Software on page 94 for more information.) Verify the drive designator used by the application is the same as the one used by the operating system. When the operating system is booted from a DVD/CD, drive designa-
tions are automatically adjusted. Note that the drive designa-
tion can be changed with the Disk Management tool located at Administrative Tools -> Computer Management. DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM is dirty or defective. Wipe the disc with a non-abrasive CD cleaning cloth and reinsert. If it still will not work try another DVD/CD-RW/CD-
ROM in the drive. The drive access indicator on the Status Indicator Panel blinks at regular intervals with no disc in the tray or the drive is not installed. Port Replicator Problems The Windows auto insertion function is active and is checking to see if a disc is ready to run. This is normal. However, you may disable this feature. Note: Be sure to power down your LifeBook Tablet PC before adding a printer to the Port Replicator parallel port. Tablet PC does not turn on when installed in the optional Port Replicator Port Replicator AC adapter is not plugged in. Tablet PC is not properly seated in the Port Replicator. Provide power to the Port Replicator. Remove and re-dock your LifeBook Tablet PC. 109 - Troubleshooting Problem Hard Drive Problems You cannot access your hard drive. Possible Cause Possible Solutions The wrong drive designator was used by an application when a bootable disc was used to start the Tablet PC. Security is set so your operat-
ing system cannot be started without a password. Verify drive designator used by application is in use by the operating system.

ity and verify the Security settings and modify them as accordingly. See BIOS Setup Utility on page 72. Internal hard drive was not detected. Use the BIOS setup utility or Primary Master submenu, located within the Main menu, to try to auto detect the inter-
nal hard drive. An error message is dis-
played on the screen dur-
ing the Tablet PC (boot) sequence. Power On Self Test (POST) has detected a problem. Your Tablet PC appears to change setup parameters when you start it. BIOS setup changes were not saved when made and you exited the setup utility. See the Power On Self Test (POST) messages to determine the meaning and severity of the problem. Not all messages are errors; some are simply status indicators. See Power On Self Test Messages on page 118. Make sure you select Save Changes And Exit when exiting the BIOS setup utility. The BIOS CMOS hold-up bat-
tery has failed. Contact your support representative for repairs. This is not a user serviceable part but has a normal life of 3 to 5 years. Your system display wont turn on when the system is turned on or has resumed. You have installed the Life-
Book/Security Application panel. Check the Status Indicator Panel for presence of the Security icon.

Wireless LAN Device Covered by this Document
Characteristics of the WLAN Device The WLAN device is a Mini-PCI card attached to the main board of the mobile computer. The WLAN device operates in license-free RF bands, eliminating the need to procure an FCC operating license. The WLAN operates in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) RF band and the lower, middle, and upper bands of the 5GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) bands. The WLAN devices are capable of four operating modes, IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11n (draft) The WLAN devices are Wi-Fi certified and operate (as applicable) at a the maximum data rate of 540 Mbps
(theoretical) in IEEE802.11n (draft) mode; 54 Mbps in IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11g mode; and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode. The WLAN devices support the following encryption methods - WEP, TKIP, CKIP, and AES encryption. The Wireless LAN devices are compliant with the following standards: WPA, WPA2, CCX1.0, CCX2.0, CCX3.0, and CCX4.0. 173 Before Using the Optional Wireless LAN Wireless LAN Modes Using this Device Ad Hoc Mode

*An optional hub for a wired LAN may be required depending upon the type of access point used. Figure 52. Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode Network 175 Before Using the Optional Wireless LAN How to Handle This Device
The Wireless LAN devices support IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11n. The WLAN devices operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and the 5 GHz lower, middle, and upper UNII bands. Microwave ovens may interfere with the operation of WLAN devices since they operate in the same 2.4 GHz frequency range as IEEE802.11b/g/n devices. Interference by microwaves does not occur with IEEE802.11a radio which operates in the 5 GHz RF band. Wireless devices that transmit in the 2.4 GHz range may interfere with operation of WLAN devices in IEEE802.11b/g/n modes. Symptoms of interference include reduced throughput, intermittent disconnects, and many frame errors. It is HIGHLY recommended that these interfering devices be powered off to ensure proper operation of the WLAN device. Deactivating/Disconnecting the WLAN Device
