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)
13
S Series.book Page 14 Thursday, September 25, 2003 1:13 PM
LifeBook S2000 Series – Section Two
FUNCTION KEYS
Your LifeBook notebook has 12 function keys, F1 through 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.
(Figure 2-11)
The [Fn] key provides extended functions for the notebook and is always used in conjunction with another key.
[Fn+F3]: Pressing [F3] while holding [Fn] will toggle the Audio Mute on and off.
[Fn+F4]: Pressing [F4] while holding [Fn] will toggle the internal pointing device on and off. Note that the [Fn+F4] combination only works if Manual Setting is selected in the BIOS Advanced menu -> Keyboard/ Mouse Features -> Internal Pointing Device. (See “BIOS Setup Utility” on page 29)
[Fn+F5]: Pressing [F5] while holding [Fn] allows you to toggle between video compensation and no video compensation. Video compensation controls sizing on the display. When it is enabled, displays with less than 1280 x 768 or 800 x 600 pixel resolution will still cover the entire screen.
[Fn+F6]: Pressing [F6] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will lower the brightness of your display.*
[Fn+F7]: Pressing [F7] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the brightness of the display.

Figure 2-12. Touchpad pointing device
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.

Volume Control
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.

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

3. Type in:
C:\Program Files\Fujitsu\ Security Panel Application\ Supervisor\FJSECS.EXE,
then press [Enter]
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. When asked to confirm, select Ye s .
