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 Tablet PC.

PASSWORDS

The user and supervisor password may be set on this Tablet PC. A supervisor password is typically the same for all tablets and notebooks in a work group, office, or company to allow for system management. Individual computers 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 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.

Cursor Control

Figure 2-20. Touchpad pointing device

Touchpad Pointing Device

The Touchpad pointing device built into your Tablet PC is used to control the movement of the cursor to select items on your display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, left and right buttons, and a scroll 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 left and right mouse buttons. The scroll button allows you to navigate through pages quickly without using the scroll bars. The actual functionality of the buttons may vary depending on the application that is being used. (Figure 2-20)

CLICKING

Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To leftclick, 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 cursor to the item you wish to select, press the right button once, and then immediately release it. (Figure 2-21)

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 and release the left button twice. (Figure 2-22)

Figure 2-22. Double-clicking

■

If the interval between clicks is too long, the double-click will not be executed.

■

Parameters for the Touchpad can be adjusted from the Mouse dialog box located in the Windows Control Panel.

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. (Figure 2-23)

Figure 2-24. Scrolling

TOUCHPAD CONTROL ADJUSTMENT

The Windows Control Panel allows you to customize your Touchpad with selections made from within the Mouse Properties dialog box. There are several aspects of Touchpad operation, which you can adjust.

To access the Mouse Properties window, open the Control Panel and double-click the Mouse icon. In the window that appears, you will see a variety of different mouse functions that you can change.

Volume Control

Your Fujitsu Tablet PC 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 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 Tablet PC. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your Tablet PC.

■

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.

Pen and Active Digitizer

USING THE PEN

You can use the LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC pen to generate and create electronic “ink”, to select items, and to navigate through programs on the Tablet PC. Programs that support handwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen with the pen. You can also use the pen as a drawing tool.

You are advised to use a screen protector on your system display to minimize the chance of its being scratched. Screen protectors are available from the Fujitsu Website at us.fujitsu.com/computers.

Figure 2-25. LifeBook T4200 Series Pen

The LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC pen is a high-quality electronic instrument that can be damaged if used improperly. Treat the pen as you would any precision device. Observe the following guidelines:

• Do not tap the pen on surfaces other than the Tablet PC screen.

• Do not try to turn the thumb grip on the pen; it is designed for inserting and removing the pen from the pen holder.

• Never store the pen with the tip bearing the weight of the pen (e.g., sitting tip down in a pencil cup). Storing the pen tip down could distort the internal mechanism over a period of time (especially in higher temperatures), causing the tip to act as if it is always depressed. The pen should be stored in the pen holder when not in use.

Tip Swi tch

to the right mouse button (when used in combination with the tip switch). The rear toggle of the barrel button switch and the eraser switch at the end of the barrel act as electronic ink “erasers”.

The rear toggle, eraser, and tip click pressures can be changed by clicking [Start] -> Control Panel, and double-clicking the Fujitsu Pen Settings icon. Note that the rear toggle switch and the eraser switch are both affected by the same settings; they cannot be changed individually.

To change the rear toggle and eraser button function, select the drop-down list to select a new function, then click [Apply]. If you don’t want the rear toggle and button switch to have any function, select Ignore from the list.

Adjusting the click pressure determines how much pressure must be put on the pen tip in order for the screen to react. The softer it is set, less pressure is required; the harder it is set, more pressure is required. To change the click pressure, use the slider bar to make the click pressure harder or softer, then click [Apply].

Use only the pen provided with your Tablet PC. Do not use substitutes that were not designed for the LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC.

Here are some hints that may help you use the pen more effectively:

• To activate the tip switch, tap or hold the pen tip against the screen.

• To activate the barrel button switch, press and hold the end of the button you wish to use (front toggle is the right mouse button switch; the rear toggle and eraser button both act as electronic “erasers”).

• To move the cursor, hold the pen tip within 1/8 inch (3 - 5 mm) from the screen and move the pen.

• To start a program, double-tap the pen tip (tap the pen tip twice rapidly) on the program icon as you would double-click a mouse.

• To select an object, tap the pen tip on the object once.

• To double-click an object, quickly tap the object twice.

The screen reacts when the pen tip is approximately 1/8 inch (3-5 mm) from the screen. The pen has four switches: a tip switch, a barrel button toggle switch with switches at both ends, and an "eraser" switch, located on the end of the barrel. By default, the tip switch corresponds to the left mouse button, and the front toggle (closest to the pen tip) barrel button switch corresponds

INSTALLING A PEN TETHER

To prevent dropping or losing your pen, you should attach it to your system using the pen tether that is included with the system.

To attach the pen tether to your Tablet PC, perform the following steps:

1. Attach the end of the pen tether with the smaller loop to your pen. To do so, push the end of the tether through the hole in the pen, then thread the opposite end of the tether through the loop. (See Figure 2-26.)

Gap

Figure 2-27. Tip Removal Tool

To replace the tip, retrieve one of the new tips that accompanied your pen. Insert the flat end of the tip into the barrel and push it in firmly until it is seated.

If you need more tips, they can be ordered from the Fujitsu Website at: us.fujitsu.com/computers.

USING THE ACTIVE DIGITIZER

The integrated active digitizer allows you to use the included pen as a pointing device. You can use the pen to 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 2-28)

To run the calibration utility:

1. Go to Start -> Control Panel and double-click on the Tablet and Pen Settings icon.

2. Click Calibrate.

3. Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfortable angle.

4. Using the pen, firmly touch the screen directly on the (+) symbol; the (+) symbol will move to the next location.

5. Repeat step 4 in the four corners, then click OK.

REPLACING THE PEN TIP

With use, the pen tip may become worn or may pick up foreign particles that can scratch the screen. A damaged or worn tip may not move freely, causing unpredictable results when using the pen. If your pen exhibits these problems, you should replace the pen tip. To do so, use the pen tip removal tool included with your pen.

To remove the tip, position the tip in the gap between the two ends of the tool (Figure 2-27). Pinch the tool together so the tip is firmly clasped, then pull it from the barrel. If the tip is worn or damaged, discard it.

Figure 2-28. Using the pen with the screen

To avoid potential scratching and damage, never use anything but the included pen with the display.

Actual battery life will vary based on screen brightness, applications, features, power management settings, battery condition and other customer preferences. CD-ROM 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.

RECHARGING THE BATTERY

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 Tablet PC and connect the AC or Auto/ Airline adapt

er.

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 longer if your Tablet PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your Tablet PC into Standby mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. See “Power

Management” on page 38.

Using heavy current devices such as a modem or frequent CD-ROM and PCMCIA powered external device accesses may prevent charging completely.

Low Battery State

When the battery is running low, your Tablet PC will beep every 15 seconds and the Battery Level indicator will flash. If you do not respond to the low battery alarm, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens there will be a multiple beep alarm and the Battery Level indicator will show a dead battery. Your Tablet PC will then go into Standby mode to try and protect your data for as long as possible. There is no guarantee that your data will not be lost once the Tablet PC reaches this point.

■

You may not be able to hear the alarm if the volume control is set too low or is turned off by the hardware or software. However, you will be able to see the Battery Level indicator flash. Once the low battery alarm occurs you must save all your data and put your Tablet PC into Standby mode until you can provide a new power source. You should provide a charged battery or AC 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 Tablet PC is in Standby mode, any data that has not been saved to the hard drive will be lost.

LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC - Section Four

Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Standby mode. Once your Tablet PC 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 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 Tablet PC 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. (See figure on page 16) If this display shows a Shorted Battery, it means that the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it does not damage any other parts of your Tablet PC.

REPLACING THE BATTERY

Your LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC comes with one battery pack; you might want to consider purchasing a spare. By keeping a spare battery fully charged, you can immediately swap with one that is not charged.

There are two ways to swap batteries: cold-swapping and warm-swapping. Cold-swapping means swapping batteries when the system has been powered down; warm-swapping is performed when the system is in Standby mode.

Cold-swapping batteries

1. Close any open files and put your Tablet PC into Standby mode.

2. Press the battery release latches to open the compartment.

3. Remove the battery from the compartment.

4. Slide the new battery into the compartment.

5. Close the compartment and the battery release latches will click into place.

6. Press the Suspend/Resume button to return your Tablet PC to normal operation

If the Lithium ion battery connector is not fully seated, you may not be able to use your Tablet PC or charge your battery.

Memory Upgrade Module

Your Fujitsu LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC comes with a minimum of 512 MB of high speed Double Data Rate 2 Synchronous Dynamic RAM (DDR2 SDRAM), 667 MHz factory installed. The maximum memory capacity is 4 GB (2 GB x 2), but 3.25 GB is the maximum amount that is usable by the operating system. To increase your system’s memory capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade must be a dualin-line (DIMM) SDRAM module. To ensure 100% compatibility, purchase the SDRAM module only from the Fujitsu web store at us.fujitsu.com/computers

■

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 discharge (ESD). To minimize risk to the module, observe the following precautions:

■

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.

CHECKING THE MEMORY CAPACITY

Once you have changed the system memory capacity by either adding or removing a memory upgrade module, be sure to check that your tablet has recognized the change.

Your Tablet PC uses Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT), which allows the video driver to dynamically determine the amount of memory that is used. Your system can use the following maximums for video functions:

Windows XP: 128 MB Windows Vista: 64 MB (with 512 MB system memory); 256 MB (with 1 GB system memory); 384 MB 9 with 1.5 GB or more system memory).

You can check the memory capacity by clicking [Start]

-> Control Panel, then double-clicking the System icon. Select the General tab and check the amount of memory under “Computer.”

The amount of memory displayed should be approximately the total of all memory modules installed. There may be a discrepancy of 8 MB which is allocated for fixed video memory.

If the total memory displayed is incorrect, check that your memory upgrade module is properly installed. (If the module is

properly installed and the capacity is still not correctly recognized, see Troubleshooting on page 60.

Troubleshooting

Restoring Your Pre-installed Software

The Drivers and Applications Restore (DAR) DVD contains sets of device drivers and Fujitsu utilities (in specific directories) that are unique to your Tablet PC configuration for use as documented below

In order to install applications and/or drivers from the DAR DVD, you will need access to a DVD drive. If you do not have a built-in DVD drive, you will need to connect an external DVD drive to your system.

If you have access to the internet, visit the Fujitsu Support website at http:// www.computers.us.fujitsu.com/support to check for the most current information, drivers and hints on how to perform recovery and system updates.

RE-INSTALLING INDIVIDUAL DRIVERS AND APPLICATIONS

The Drivers and Applications CD can be used to selectively re-install drivers and/or applications that may have

been un-installed or corrupted.

There may be certain free third-party applications pre-installed on your system that are not on the DAR CD. The latest versions of the applications can be downloaded from the third-party’s website.

4. In the list, check off all the components you want to install. If you want to install all components, click [Select All]. Clicking [Select All] will select all of the blue-coded components; you must select grey and green components separately.

5. Once you have selected the components you wish to install, click [Install Selected Subsystems]; the components will be installed.

6. After the components are installed, click [OK], then click [Yes] when asked if you want to reboot the system.

RESTORING THE FACTORY IMAGE

The Restore Disc that came with your system contains two utilities:

■

The Recovery utility allows you to restore the original contents of the C: drive.

■

The Hard Disk Data Delete utility on this disc is used to delete all data on your hard disk and prevent it from being reused. Do not use Hard Disk Data Delete unless you are absolutely certain that you want to erase your entire hard disk, including all partitions.

• The use of this disc requires that you have a device capable of reading DVDs attached to your system. If you do not have a built-in DVD player, you will need to attach an external player. For more information on available external devices, visit our Website at: us.fujitsu.com/ computers.

• This disc can only be used with the system with which it was purchased.

To re-install drivers and/or applications:

1. Boot up the system and insert the DAR CD after Windows has started. A Fujitsu Installer screen is displayed after the CD is inserted.

2. After reading the License Agreement, click [I agree].

3. A window will appear containing a list of applications, drivers, and utilities that you can install from the Drivers and Applications CD.

The components listed are color-coded in terms of their install status. Blue indicates that the component can be installed. Green indicates that the component needs to be installed separately. Grey indicates a component that is already installed; grey items can be reinstalled, but prior to installation you will receive a reminder that the component is already installed and may need to be uninstalled prior to reinstallation.

BOOT Priority Change

Before restoring an image, you must first verify that your system is set up to boot from the DVD drive. To verify/ change the boot-up priority (rather than booting-up from the hard drive or an external floppy disk drive), perform the following steps:

1. Start your system and press the [F2] key when the Fujitsu logo appears. You will enter the BIOS Setup Utility.

2. Using the arrow keys, go to the Boot menu.

3. Arrow down to the Boot Device Priority submenu. Press [Enter].

4. If “Optical Media Drive” or “CD-ROM Drive” is not at the top of the list, arrow down to the drive in the list, and press the space bar (or the + key) to move it to the top of the list. (The system attempts to boot from the devices in the order in which they are listed.). Note that the BIOS for some systems will indicate “CD-ROM Drive”, even when a DVD drive is connected.

LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC - Section Five

5. If you have an external DVD drive connected, proceed to step 6; otherwise, proceed to step 7.

6. If you have an external DVD drive connected:

■

Select the Advanced menu in the BIOS window.

■

Scroll down to the USB Features submenu and press the Enter key to open it.

■

If Legacy USB Support is disabled, press the space bar to enable it.

■

Scroll down to SCSI SubClass Support and press the space bar to enable it.

7. Press [F10], then click on [Yes] to exit the BIOS Setup Utility and return to the boot process.

After you have changed the boot priority, you can restore a backup image when you are booting up.

Procedure

1. Turn on the power to your system.

2. Ensure that you have a device that can read DVDs

either installed in your system or attached externally to it.

3. Insert the Restore Disc into the drive tray.

4. Reboot your system.

WINDOWS VISTA USERS: IMPORTANT NOTE - While the operating

system is booting up during the restoration procedure, your screen will go blank for a short period of time. This is normal. During

the period while your screen is blank, do not press any buttons. Please wait for the

“Set Up Windows” screen to be displayed, then follow the instructions that appear.

5. After the system reboots, follow the instructions

that appear to either restore your system image or erase all data from your hard disk.

AUTOMATICALLY DOWNLOADING DRIVER UPDATES

The FDU icon should appear in the system tray at the bottom right of your screen (roll the cursor over the icons to find the correct one). If the FDU icon does not appear in the system tray, it can be started by going to [Start] -> All Programs, and clicking on Fujitsu Driver Update; this will create the icon automatically.

■

After shutting down the system, wait until the status LED panel indicates power off condition (i.e., no lights are illuminated).

■

Always power off the computer before transporting and/or packaging it. After shutting down the system, wait until the status LED panel indicates power off condition (i.e., no lights are illuminated).

■

Attempting to transport the computer while power is on may damage the notebook due to shock or overheating since the air vents may be blocked or restricted.

■

Detach any external devices, PC cards, cables, AC adapters, and port replicator connected to the system prior to transporting. Connectors on the notebook could get damaged if the system is carried while connected.

■

Close the LCD panel while transporting. If your system is a Tablet PC, be sure to shield the LCD screen when carrying it. Do not check a Tablet PC as baggage; please carry it with you.

■

While carrying the unit, be sure to protect it from impact, shock, and vibration as much as possible.

KEYBOARD

Caring for your Keyboard

The keyboard of your computer is a very sensitive instrument. It is made up of many switches that are activated when you press on the keys. The keyboard is a major component of the heat dissipation system in a Tablet PC. Due to heat and size considerations the keyboard is not sealed. Because the keys are so close together, it is not easy for the user to see when liquids have fallen onto the circuitry below the keys.

Attempting to clean the keyboard with a spray on cleaner or rag soaked with cleaner the liquid can drip onto the circuitry sight unseen. Once the liquid seeps between the layers of circuitry, it can cause corrosion or other damage to the circuits. This can result in keys which no longer operate, or which, when pressed, record the wrong characters and other similar failures.

There is no repair for this problem other than replacement. The solution is to become aware of the issue and take appropriate steps to protect your keyboard.

To clean the keyboard, use a rag dampened slightly with cleaning solution. Use extreme care to prevent liquid from dripping between the keys. Spraying directly on the keys should be avoided. The spray should be applied first to the cloth, and then the cloth wiped over the keys.

BATTERIES

Caring for your Batteries

■

Always handle batteries carefully.

■

Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals with a metal object). Do not carry loose batteries in a pocket or purse where they

SMART

Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) is a technology that provides near-term failure predictions for hard drives. When SMART is enabled the hard drive monitors pre-determined drive attributes that are susceptible to degradation over time. If a failure is likely to occur, SMART makes a status report available so that the Tablet PC can prompt the user to back up the data on the drive. Naturally not all failures are predictable. SMART predictability is limited to those attributes which the drive can self-monitor. In those cases where SMART can give advance warning, a considerable amount of precious data can be saved.
