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 disp ose 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

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.

* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site at www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or

www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks in Canada.

** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery recycling; RBRC is in no way affiliated with

Fujitsu.

Active Digitizer/Touchscreen

Active Digitizer Display

The integrated active digitizer allows you to use the included stylus (also called a “pen”) as a pointing device. (For detailed information about caring for

your stylus, go to “Caring for the Pen” on page 27.)

You can use the stylus to click, double-click, drag items and icons, write text, 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.

• DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN TAPPING OR WRITING ON THE SCREEN WITH THE STYLUS.

XCESSIVE FORCE COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE LED AND/OR ACTIVE DIGITIZER.

Calibrating the Display

In order to ensure accurate tracking between the stylus and cursor, you must run the Calibration Utility before you use the system for the first time, or after you change the display resolution.

To run the calibration utility:

1 Go to Start -> Control Panel. 2 Double-click the Tablet PC Settings icon and select the Display tab 3 Click the [Calibrate] button, then select whether you want to calibrate pen input or touch input. 4 Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfortable angle and find the (+) symbol in the upper-left corner of

the display.

DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN TAPPING ON THE SCREEN DURING CALIBRATION. USE OF

EXCESSIVE FORCE COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE LED AND/OR TOUCH PANEL.

5 Using the stylus or your finger (depending upon which type of input you are calibrating), firmly touch the screen

directly on the (+) symbol. Lift the stylus from the screen and the target will move to a different location on the screen.

6 Repeat step 5 until you have selected all of the (+) symbols. 7 Once you have selected all the symbols, press the [OK] button. 8 Touch the stylus to various points on the screen to verify that the screen is correctly calibrated. If you are not

satisfied with the screen’s calibration, press the [Calibrate]) button to begin again.

Using the Capacitive Touchscreen

Certain configurations of this Tablet PC have an optional dual digitizer that allows you to use either the stylus or your finger(s) as a pointing device. This type of display also allows you to use “gestures” to perform such actions as scroll, zoom, and rotate.

• GESTURE SUPPORT IS DETERMINED BY THE APPLICATION IN USE.

• THE STYLUS TAKES PRECEDENCE OVER FINGER TOUCH. IF THE STYLUS IS WITHIN ACTIVE RANGE OF

THE SCREEN, FINGER TOUCH WILL BE DISABLED.

• WHEN ONE FINGER IS USED ON THE TOUCHSCREEN, IT BEHAVES IN THE SAME MANNER AS A STYLUS.

Right-clicking the touchscreen

T o perform a right-click action using two fingers, press the first finger at the location you want to perform a right-click, then quickly tap and release the second finger on the screen.

Gesture Mode 

To initiate gesture mode, two fingers must touch the screen within 200 ms of each other. If the second finger touches the screen after 200 ms has elapsed, the second finger is ignored. If more than two fingers touch the screen in that time, Advanced Gesture Mode is activated instead. When Gesture Mode is activated, no cursor movement is sent to the system.

When both fingers are removed, Gesture mode ends. When a third finger is added, gesture mode ends and Advanced gesture mode is activated. Note that if a gesture can’t be recognized, no action is taken. In that case, remove both fingers from the screen and try again.

Scrolling Gesture

To scroll through long documents or on a web page, place both fingers on the screen (one finger quickly followed by the second). If at least one finger has moved at least 3 mm, a scroll is considered. If both fingers are moving in the same direction and parallel (given a tolerance of 5 mm), Scroll Mode is activated. If one finger is stationary, it is not considered a scroll. If either finger is lifted, Scroll Mode is canceled.

Zoom Gesture

The zoom gesture is especially helpful when viewing pictures. To zoom in, place two fingers on the item you want to enlarge (one finger quickly followed by the second), then spread them away from each other.

- Active Digitizer/Touchscreen

If at least one finger has moved at least 10 mm, a zoom event is considered. If the distance between the fingers has changed by at least 10 mm, and both fingers have stayed on approximately the same line, Zoom Mode is entered. If either finger strays more than 10 mm from the "zoom line" created when the fingers first made contact, the zoom is canceled.

To zoom out, place two fingers on the item you want to reduce (one finger quickly followed by the second), then move them towards each other.

Rotate Gesture

To change the orientation of an object on the screen, place two fingers on the image you want to rotate (one finger quickly followed by the second), then move them in opposite directions (as if you were turning a knob). The direction the item turns is dependant upon the direction you move your fingers.

If at least one finger moves at least 12 mm, a rotate is considered. If one finger is stationary (moving less than 5 mm in any direction), and the other is moving, a rotate is considered. If the fingers begin moving in the same direction, the rotation is canceled. If the distance between the fingers changes by more than 10 mm, the rotation is canceled.

Accessing the OnScreen TouchPad

Your tablet has a handy on-screen touchpad that offers a variety of helpful functions. Features of the OnScreen TouchPad include:

• Virtual Mouse Emulator: The Virtual Mouse Emulator works in much the same manner as a

hardware mouse. With the virtual mouse, you can scroll, drag, and click, as well as perform [Ctl]+[Click] and [Shift]+[Click] actions.

• Application Launch/Key Macro: This window provides access to five pages, each of which can

contain up to twenty buttons. Each button can be programmed to open an application, a folder, document, or key (such as [Esc], [ Alt+X] and [Page Up]).

• Digital Keyboard: This window provides a soft keyboard for use in mathematical procedures. It

works in much the same way as the Windows standard calculator.

To access the OnScreen TouchPad, go to the Start Menu > All Programs > Fujitsu OnScreen TouchPad. To learn more about the utility, click on Usage and Help.

Caring for the Pen

• ONLY USE THE PEN PROVIDED WITH YOUR TABLET PC. DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE PEN TIPS THAT WERE NOT

SPECIALLY DESIGNED FOR YOUR TABLET PC. REPLACE THE STYLUS TIP IF IT IS WORN. THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER A SCRATCHED SCREEN.

• WHILE WRITING, DO NOT TO SCRATCH THE SURFACE OF THE DISPLAY (E.G., WITH A WRISTWATCH OR BRACELET).

HE PEN OF YOUR TABLET PC IS AN ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENT WHICH CAN BE DAMAGED IF USED INCORRECTLY.

HANDLE THE PEN WITH CARE. THE FOLLOWING LIST CONTAINS GUIDELINES FOR PROPER PEN HANDLING:

• DO NOT GESTURE WITH THE PEN OR USE IT AS A POINTER.

• NEVER USE THE PEN ON ANY OTHER SURFACE THAN THE SCREEN OF YOUR TABLET PC.

• DO NOT TRY TO TURN THE THUMB GRIP ON THE PEN.

• NEVER STORE THE PEN WITH THE TIP BEARING THE WEIGHT OF THE PEN. IF THE PEN IS STORED WITH THE TIP

POINTING DOWN, THIS MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE PEN MECHANISM (PARTICULARLY UNDER HIGH TEMPERATURES). IN THIS CASE THE PEN TIP MAY REACT AS THOUGH IT IS CONSTANTLY BEING PRESSED DOWN.

• THE PEN CAN BE INFLUENCED BY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS (CURSOR QUIVERS OR JUMPS). THERE MAY BE A FEW

AREAS ON THE SCREEN WHERE THE CURSOR QUIVERS SLIGHTLY IN SPITE OF PRESSING THE PEN DOWN FIRMLY.

Changing the Pen Settings

There are a few changes you can make to your pen settings in order to make it more suitable to your needs (such as changing the pressure sensitivity). T o do so, go to Start > Control Panel and select one of the icon views from the “View by:” dropdown. Click on the Pen and T o uch icon to open the window from which you can change a variety of pen settings.
