USING THE KEYBOARD
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has an integral 82-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 2-11)
■
Numeric keypad: Your notebook allows certain keys to
serve dual purposes, both as standard characters and
as numeric and mathematical keys. The ability to toggle 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 2-11)
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. (Refer to your Windows documentation for additional information regarding the Windows keys.)
(Figure 2-11)
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). (Figure 2-11)

Touchpad Pointing Device
The Touchpad pointing device comes built into your
Fujitsu LifeBook notebook. It is used to control the
movement of the pointer to select items on your display
panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, a
left and right button, and a scrolling button. The cursor
control works the same way a mouse does, 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 actual
functionality 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. (Figure 2-12)
POINT
An external mouse can be connected to either the USB
port on your LifeBook notebook or the USB or PS/2
ports on the optional port replicator, and used simultaneously with the Touchpad. However, if you boot the
system with an external mouse connected the Touchpad will be disabled or enabled depending on the specifications in your BIOS settings.

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has multiple volume
controls which interact with each other.
POINT
Any software that contains an audio player 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 set from within the Volume Control on
the Taskbar.
■
Volume can be controlled with the F8 and F9 functions 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 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.
Getting to Know Your LifeBook
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.

Figure 2-17. Flexible Bay
Flexible Bay Devices
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook contains a Flexible Bay.
The Flexible Bay can accommodate an optical drive (i.e.,
a modular DVD drive, CD-ROM drive, or DVD/CDRW combo drive), a Lithium ion battery, or a weight
saver. (Figure 2-17)
Your Flexible Bay will have one of the following devices
installed. (Figure 2-18)
■
Modular DVD drive: This allows you to access movies,
software, and audio DVD/CDs.
■
Modular DVD/CD-RW combo drive: This allows you
to access movies, software, and audio DVD/CDs as
well as to write to CDs.
■
Modular CD-ROM drive: This allows you to access
software, data, or audio CDs.
■
Modular Lithium ion battery: This is a rechargeable
battery that can be used to power your LifeBook notebook when an adapter is not connected.
■
Weight Saver: This is used to fill the bay when no
device is needed.
REMOVING AND INSTALLING
MODULAR DEVICES
There are two ways to remove and install modular
devices in the Flexible Bay:
■
Cold-swapping: swapping devices while your LifeBook
notebook is powered off.
■
Hot-swapping: swapping devices while your system is
active using the Unplug/Eject icon from your taskbar.
Note that if the weight saver is installed rather than a
modular device, it is not necessary to use BayManager
when removing it.
CAUTION
You should never leave your Flexible Bay empty when
the notebook is in operation. If left empty, dust or foreign matter may accumulate inside the notebook.

Figure 2-19. Removing/Installing a device in the Flexible Bay
CAUTION
Be careful when aligning and seating devices in the bay.
If the fit is incorrect, you may damage the bay or the
device. If the device does not move easily in the bay,
remove it, and check for dirt or foreign objects. It will
require a firm push to latch the device in place.
5. Slide the device you are installing into your
notebook until it clicks into place.
6. It is now safe to turn your notebook back on.
7. You can now access and use the device.
Your LifeBook notebook will automatically detect the
new device and activate it within your system. The drive
letters associated with the device will be created and
listed under My Computer and Windows Explorer.
Hot-swapping
Under Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP Home,
and Windows XP Professional, hot-swapping is
provided through the Unplug or Eject Hardware utility.
The icon for the utility appears on the taskbar. Click on
the icon and follow the on-screen instructions.

Figure 2-20. LifeBook Security/Application Panel
LifeBook Security/
Application Panel
A unique feature of your LifeBook notebook is the
LifeBook Security/Application Panel that allows you to
secure your notebook from unauthorized use. The Security/Application 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 2-20)
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. (Figure 2-20)
Enter Button
After entering the button strokes, push this button to
enter the password into the LifeBook notebook.
(Figure 2-20)
use a common password. A password consists of one to
five button strokes plus the enter button. A valid 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 supervisor password before the user password.
POINTS
■
The purpose of the supervisor password is to allow
you to bypass the user password in case the user
password is forgotten. The supervisor password
alone will not lock the system.
■
You have to set both the supervisor and user passwords for the security panel to work.
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

Setting Supervisor Password
You must have set a supervisor password before setting
any user passwords. The supervisor password can bypass
the user password.
1. Go to the Start menu.
2. Click on Run.
S Series.book Page 21 Thursday, September 25, 2003 1:13 PM
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the
Supervisor password.
Setting User Password
1 Go to the Start menu.
2. Click on (All) Programs.
3. Click on Security Panel Application -> Security Panel Application.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the
user password.
POINT
You may change or remove the supervisor or user
password by repeating the steps defined above.
OPERATING YOUR LIFEBOOK
SECURITY/ APPLICATION PANEL
The security lock feature is in effect both when the system
resumes from Off or suspend state. You always need to
push the Power/Suspend/Resume button to input the user
password. Your system will not begin the boot sequence
without entering your supervisor/user password.
From Off State
1. Turn on your system.
2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the password and press the [Enter] button.
For example, if the password is 22222, press button
number 2 five times and press [Enter] button. The
LifeBook notebook will boot to normal operation.
From Suspend State
1. Press the Power/Suspend/Resume button.
2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the password and press Enter button.
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 notebook 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 (suspend
or off) and the Security Indicator will go off. To reactivate the notebook after a password failure, you must
press the Power/Suspend/Resume button, then enter the
correct password.
POINT
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
suspend mode. Opening the cover does not automatically place the notebook into normal operation; instead,
you must enter the proper security password after
pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume button.
Low Battery Operations
If your LifeBook notebook has a low battery, pushing the
Power/Suspend/Resume button only turns on the Security Indicator. Your notebook does not unlock and 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:
■
Uninstall the security panel application software (with
no passwords set). This will disable all security feature.
■
Uninstall the security panel application with password
still active. This will not allow any changes to the
password.
Uninstalling the Security Panel
Application Software
Remove passwords when the User wants no password
protection whatsoever and doesn’t want to give anybody
the utility to set a password on their computer. In this
case, if passwords (supervisor, user, or both) are set, the
passwords must first be cleared BEFORE removing the
application. To clear passwords, follow the same procedure in “Setting Passwords”, except this time, select
Remove, enter the current password, then click Next.
