Using the Keyboard
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has an integral anti-microbial 84-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 13):
• Numeric keypad: Your Tablet PC 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. These keys switch between desktop and
Modern Start screen modes and open the Application bar on the bottom of the screen.
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.
Windows Keys
Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has two Windows keys, consisting of a Windows key and an Application key. The Windows
key switches between the Modern Start screen and desktop. This button functions the same as your onscreen Start
menu button. The Application key opens the Application bar located at the bottom of the screen. (Please refer to your
Windows documentation for additional information regarding the Windows keys.)
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).

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 three aspects of operation which you can adjust:
• Buttons: This tab lets you set up the buttons for right or left handed operation, in addition to setting up the
time interval allowed between clicks in double-clicking.
• Pointers: This tab lets you set up the scheme for the cursor depending on its functionality.
• Pointer Options: This tab lets you set up a relation between the speed of your finger motion and the speed of
the cursor. It also allows you to enable a Pointer Trail for the cursor arrow.
Active Digitizer Display
NOTE: Depending upon your system configuration, in addition
to the active digitizer, you may also have a capacitive touch
panel that responds to finger touch and touch gestures. (This
configuration is called a “Dual Digitizer”.) For more information
about the touchscreen, refer to “Using the Optional Capacitive
Touchscreen” on page 47.
The integrated active digitizer allows you to use the included stylus
as a pointing device. 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

8Touch 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 Optional 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.
To 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 one 10th of a second of each other. If the second
finger touches the screen after one 10th of a second has elapsed, the second finger is ignored. Gesture mode ends
when both fingers are removed from the screen. 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 and move them in parallel in the
same direction; if only one finger moves, no scrolling will
occur. You can scroll vertically or horizontally, depending
upon the direction of the gesture.
Rotate Gesture
To change the orientation of an object on the screen, place
two fingers on the image you want to rotate, 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.

Figure 28. Scrolling Gesture
Figure 29. Rotate Gesture
Zoom Gesture
The zoom gesture is especially
helpful when viewing pictures. To
zoom in, place two fingers on the
item you want to enlarge, then
sprea d them away from each othe r.
To zoom out, place two fingers on
the item you want to reduce, then
move them towards each other.
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. The pen tether attachment point is located under the
front edge of the system (Figure 31).
To attach the pen tether to your Tablet PC, perform the following

ENERGY STAR® Compliance
Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR® qualified mobile PC. By choosing a computer with the latest
energy-saving technology, you’re helping to preserve our environment for future generations.
ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Energy,
Natural Resources Canada, and other governments around the world helping us save money while
protecting the environment through energy efficient products and practices. With energy costs and
global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is committed to offering solutions that help consumers conserve
energy and improve the quality of our environment.
Sleep Mode:
You will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 15 minutes of user inactivity, and
the computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. When going into Sleep mode, the computer
also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To “wake” the computer from Sleep mode, press the
Suspend/Resume Button.
Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard equipment – saving half in
utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference for the environment. Did you know that the
average house can be responsible for twice the greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every
time you flip on a light switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more
greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efficiency, the more
we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.

Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has a Lithium ion battery that provides power for operating your Tablet PC when no external
power source is available. The battery is durable and long lasting, but should not be exposed to extreme
temperatures, high voltages, chemicals or other hazards.
The Lithium ion battery operating time may become shorter if it is used under the following conditions:
• When used at temperatures that exceed a low of 5°C or a high of 35°C (41° to 95° F). Extreme temperatures not
only reduce charging efficiency, but can also cause battery deterioration. The Charging icon on the Status
Indicator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range.
• When using a high current device such as a modem, external optical drive, or the hard drive, using the AC
adapter will conserve your battery life.

If you want to know the condition of the primary Lithium ion battery, check the Battery Level indicator located on the
Status Indicator panel or the indicator located on the battery itself. 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 LIFEBOOK Tablet PC and connect the AC or
Auto/Airline adapter.

AKESURETHATTHEPERCENTAGECHARGEISINDICATEDBYTHE BATTERY CHARGINGINDICATORONTHE 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 significantly 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 Sleep mode, or turn it off while the adapter is
charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 63 for mor e information on Sleep mode and shutdown pr ocedure)
When the battery is running low, a low battery notification message will appear. If you do not respond to the low
battery message, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens, your

Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Sleep 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
Power/Suspend/Resume switch 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 indicator associated with the Battery Level indicator displays the operating level available
in that battery. If this display shows a flashing red LED, it means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it
does not damage other parts of your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC.
