Safety Precautions

The following safety precautions will increase the life of the UltraMobilePC. Follow all pre-

cautions and instructions. Except as described in this manual, refer all servicing to qualied

personnel. Do not use damaged power cords, accessories, or other peripherals. Do not use strong solvents such as thinners, benzene, or other chemicals on or near the surface.

IMPORTANT! Disconnect the AC power and remove the battery pack(s) before cleaning. Wipe the UltraMobilePC using a clean cellulose sponge or chamois cloth dampened with a solution of nonabrasive detergent and a few drops of warm water and remove any extra moisture with a dry cloth.

DO NOT place on uneven or unstable work surfaces. Seek servicing if the casing has been damaged.

DO NOT scratch the display panel. Do not place together with small items that may scratch or enter the UltraMobilePC vents.

DO NOT expose to dirty or dusty environments. DO NOT operate during a gas leak.

DO NOT leave the UltraMobilePC on your lap or any part of the body in order to prevent discomfort or injury from heat exposure.

SAFE TEMP: This UltraMobilePC should only be used in environments with ambient temperatures between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F)

DO NOT throw the UltraMobilePC in municipal waste. Check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.

DO NOT place or drop objects on top and do not shove any foreign objects into the UltraMobilePC.

DO NOT expose to strong magnetic

or electrical elds.

DO NOT expose to or use near liquids, rain, or moisture. DO NOT use the modem during an electrical storm.

Battery safety warning: DO NOT throw the battery in re. DO NOT short circuit the contacts. DO NOT disassemble the battery.

UltraMobilePC

Transportation Precautions

To prepare the UltraMobilePC for transport, you should turn it OFF and disconnect all external peripherals to prevent damage to the connectors. The hard disk drive’s head retracts

when the power is turned OFF to prevent scratching of the hard disk surface during transport. Therefore, you should not transport the UltraMobilePC while the power is still ON.

Cover Your UltraMobilePC

You can purchase an optional carrying case to protect it from dirt, water, shock, and scratches.

CAUTION: The UltraMobilePC’s surface is easily dulled if not properly cared for. Be careful not to rub or scrape the UltraMobilePC surfaces when transporting your UltraMobilePC.

Charge Your Batteries

If you intend to use battery power, be sure to fully charge your battery pack and any optional battery packs before going on long trips. Remember that the power adapter charges the battery pack as long as it is plugged into the computer and an AC power source. Be aware that it takes much longer to charge the battery pack when the UltraMobilePC is in use.

Airplane Precautions

Contact your airline if you want to use the UltraMobilePC on the airplane. Most airlines will have restrictions for using electronic devices. Most airlines will allow electronic use only between and not during takeoffs and landings.

CAUTION! There are three main types of airport security devices: X-ray machines (used on items placed on conveyor belts), magnetic detectors (used on people walking through security checks), and magnetic wands (hand-held devices used on people or individual items). You can send your UltraMobilePC and diskettes through airport X-ray machines. However, it is recommended that you do not send your UltraMobilePC or diskettes through airport magnetic detectors or expose them to magnetic wands.

Front Side

Refer to the diagram below to identify the components on this side of the UltraMobilePC.

Display Panel

The display panel functions the same as a desktop monitor. The UltraMobilePC uses an active matrix TFT LCD, which provides excellent viewing like that of desktop monitors. Unlike desktop monitors, the LCD panel

does not produce any radiation or ickering, so it is easier on the eyes.

Use a soft cloth without chemical liquids (use plain water if necessary) to clean the display panel.

Camera

The built-in camera allows picture taking or video recording. Can be used with video conferencing and other interactive applications.

Microphone (Built-in)

The built-in mono microphone can be used for video conferencing, voice narrations, or simple audio recordings.

Thumbstick Cursor Control

The thumbstick cursor control with its left and right cursor buttons is a pointing device that provides the same functions as a desktop mouse.

Right Side

Refer to the diagram below to identify the components on this side of the UltraMobilePC.

LAN Port (disabled when using PortBar)

The RJ-45 LAN port with eight pins is larger than the RJ-11 modem port and supports a standard Ethernet cable for connection to a local network. The built-in connector allows convenient use without additional adapters.

Note: An active LAN cable must be connected in order for Windows device manager to detect the built-in LAN. For the same reason, an active LAN cable must be connected when installing a LAN driver.

Expansion Port

The expansion port provides an easy-to-use PortBar docking solution to desktop peripherals and other accessories through a single connector.

Notes: (1) AC power adapter must be used. Cannot be used when UltraMobilePC is in battery mode. (2) Recommend using two AC power adapters (one on the UltraMobilePC and one on the PortBar) when using all ports on UltraMobilePC and PortBar. (3) Disables UltraMobilePC’s LAN port when connected.

<-------- combo -------->

Display (Monitor) Output (with provided adapter)

The provided VGA adapter for the expansion port will provide a 15-pin D-sub analog output to support a standard VGA-compatible device such as a monitor or projector to allow displaying on a larger external monitor.

USB Port (2.0/1.1)

The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB

1.1 devices such as keyboards, pointing devices, cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected in a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec (USB 2.0). USB allows many devices to run simultaneously on a single computer, with some peripherals acting as additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping of devices so that most peripherals can be connected or disconnected without restarting the computer.

Microphone Input Jack

The mono microphone jack (1/8 inch) can be used to connect an external microphone or output signals from audio devices. Using this jack automatically disables the built-in microphone. Use this feature for video conferencing, voice narrations, or simple audio recordings.

Headphone Output Jack

The stereo headphone jack (1/8 inch) is used to connect the UltraMobilePC’s au-

dio out signal to amplied speakers or headphones. Using this jack automatically

disables the built-in speakers.

Power (DC) Input

The supplied power adapter converts AC power to DC power for use with this jack. Power supplied through this jack supplies power to the UltraMobilePC and charges the internal battery pack. To prevent damage to the UltraMobilePC and battery pack, always use the supplied power adapter. CAUTION: MAY BECOME WARM TO HOT WHEN IN

USE. BE SURE NOT TO COVER THE ADAPTER AND KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR BODY.

ash memory cards from devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile

phones, and PDAs. The built-in SD memory card reader is not only convenient, but also faster than most external SD memory card readers.
