Figure 2-11. Opening the display

Display Panel

Your LifeBook T Series Tablet PC contains a display
panel that is backlit for easier viewing in bright environ­ments. The convertible design of your Tablet PC allows
you to open the display fully, rotate it 180 degrees, and
lay it face up on the keyboard. This allows you to use the
system as a tablet, much as you would a pad of paper.

OPENING THE DISPLAY PANEL

1. Slide the latch release to the right. This releases the
locking mechanism. While holding the latch release,
lift display cover.

2. Lift the display backwards, being careful not to
touch the screen, until it is at a comfortable viewing
angle. (Figure 2-11)

USING THE SYSTEM AS A TABLET

If you would like to use the system as a tablet, perform
the following step

s.

Rotate the system display only in the
direction indicated in the procedure.

Turning the display in the incorrect
direction could cause hinge damage.

4. Push the latch towards the display (See "A" in
Figure 2-12). The latch will pivot so the top latch
disappears, and the bottom latch appears (See "B" in
Figure 2-12). Holding the latch down, lay the display
flush against the system so that the latch engages.
You can now use your system as a tablet. (Figure 2-

16)

Figure 2-12. Latching/Unlatching

5. To return the system to notebook configuration,
repeat step 3 and 2. Be sure to turn the display in the
opposite direction when performing step 2.

In the following step, be sure to position
the display perpendicular to the keyboard,
otherwise the keyboard or display cover
could get scratched.

1. Lift the display until it is perpendicular to the
keyboard. (Figure 2-13).

2. When the display is perpendicular to the keyboard,
rotate it clockwise (when viewed from the top). Be
very careful to rotate it in the direction indicated.
(Figure 2-14). Turn the display 180 degrees so that it
is facing backwards. (Figure 2-15)

3. Holding the top edge of the display panel, pull it
forward until it is lying nearly atop the keyboard.

ADJUSTING DISPLAY PANEL BRIGHTNESS

Once you have turned on your Tablet PC, you may want
to adjust the brightness level of the screen to a more
comfortable viewing level. There are two ways to adjust
the brightness, keyboard and power management utility.

Using Keyboard to Adjust Brightness

Adjusting the brightness using the keyboard changes the
system setting (i.e., the settings you make via the func­tion keys automatically changes the brightness settings
in the system’s Pen and Tablet Settings).

■

[Fn+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness
of your display.

■

[Fn+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the
brightness of the display.

Using Power Management to Adjust Brightness

To adjust brightness with the power management utility,
click Start -> Control Panel -> Tablet and Pen Settings.
Select the Display tab and set the screen brightness slider
for battery and AC power scenarios.

Figure 2-15. Display rotated completely

Figure 2-16. System in tablet configuration

Using the Fujitsu Menu to Adjust Brightness

To adjust brightness using the Fujitsu menu, click on the
Fujitsu Menu icon in the system tray in the lower right
corner of the screen. From the menu that appears, select
Brightness Control. The Tablet and Pen Settings window
will open. Select the Display tab and set the screen
brightness slider for battery and AC power scenarios.

If using AC power your brightness setting
is set to its highest level by default. If using
battery power your brightness settings is
set to approximately mid-level by default.

The higher the brightness level, the more
power the LifeBook T Series Tablet PC will
consume and the faster your batteries will
discharge. For maximum battery life, make
sure that the brightness is set as low as
possible.
