Using the Tablet PC
This chapter covers the fundamental concepts, basic system operation and use, and system
functions of the Tablet PC.
The casing of your Tablet PC can become very warm during prolonged operation with the power
supply unit. Therefore, touch the device carefully and only in the areas coated with a thermal suede
if possible.
i
If you want to operate the device on battery power, first check that the battery is charged.
System modes
Before you begin using the Tablet PC, review the different system modes that the system can use.
Being familiar with these system modes will help you determine whether it is appropriate to turn on,
resume, suspend, hibernate or shut down the system when you begin or end a session.
Your system may be configured to enter some of these modes automatically after a period of
inactivity to conserve battery power.
ON mode
The system is running. The display screen is on.
Idle mode
Some system functions are regulated or turned off to conserve power. The display screen may be
turned off. The system returns to the ON mode when pen activity or other input is detected.
A26391-K145-Z120-1-7619, edition 3 15

Using the Tablet PC
Suspend mode
There are two different Suspend modes: Your system may be configured to use either
i
Suspend-to-RAM mode
All system functions are turned off to conserve power. Power to memory is on, maintaining data in
programs that were running before system operation was suspended.
The system does not respond to the pen or other input when in Suspend-to-RAM mode. Refer to the
"Resuming operation" section in this chapter for information on returning the system to the ON
mode.
Hibernate mode
All system functions are turned off to conserve power. Active data in programs that were running
before suspending system operation is stored on the hard disk drive.
The system does not respond to the pen or other input. Refer to the "Resuming operation" section in
this chapter for information on returning the system to the ON mode.
Suspend-to-RAM mode or Hibernate mode.
OFF mode
All system functions are turned off to conserve power. The system does not respond to the pen or
other input.
The system consumes the same amount of power whether it is in Hibernate mode or the
i
OFF mode.

Powering up the Tablet PC
Follow the procedure below to start the Tablet PC. However, you must first make sure that the
system is switched off (OFF mode, hibernate mode). To do so, observe the Status display:
●If the power indicator icon is not visible, the system is in OFF mode or in Hibernate mode. It is
safe to perform this procedure.
● If the power indicator is flashing or blinking, do not perform this procedure.
► Ensure that the battery in your Tablet PC is sufficiently charged, or connect an external power
source such as the power adapter or auto adapter to your Tablet PC.
► Press the On/Resume/Suspend button to start the system.
After performing system initialisation, the system starts the operating system installed on the hard
disk drive. Once the operating system is running, you can use the system.
Switching off the Tablet PC
Follow these steps to shut down and turn off your system:
►If system operation has been suspended, resume system operation. Additional information is
contained in the section "Resuming operation" in this chapter.
► Close all open programs.
► Choose Shut Down from the Windows Start menu.
The system is now switched off.

Enabling Suspend mode
The Tablet PC allows you to suspend the system operation without closing programs or exiting the
operating system. Use this feature to conserve battery power when a system shutdown is not
practical or when the battery needs to be changed.
If you have set your system to turn Shut down from the Power Options utility in the Control

system down rather than suspending it. To change the power options, go to Start - Control Panel - Power Options.
operating system or power management program.
If you are replacing the battery, wait until system operation is suspended and the power
indicator is blinking before you remove the battery. Failure to do so could result in loss of
your unsaved data.
(Note that if the Resume On LAN function is enabled in the BIOS Setup, you should not
remove the battery unless the system is shut down. When Resume ON LAN is enabled,
the buffer battery is disabled in order to optimise battery life.)
The power indicator either flashes (Suspend-to-RAM) or is not displayed (Hibernate) when
system operation is suspended, depending on how your system is configured. At this
point, programs that were running are stopped, active data is saved, and the system
enters one of two different low-power modes, or suspend modes, as explained in the
following paragraphs
Observe the power indicator in the status display to determine which suspend mode your system is
using.
– Flashing: Suspend-to-RAM mode
In this mode, the data is retained in RAM memory by keeping power applied to the RAM
memory while most of the other system components are switched off. The Battery Gauge
icon indicates the battery charge level.
– Is not displayed (dark): Hibernate mode
In this mode, active data is stored on the hard disk drive. Power draw is reduced to the
same level used in OFF mode.
When the system is in Hibernate mode, the battery gauge icon is not visible. In this
mode, there is no danger of losing data if battery power is lost.

Using the Tablet PC
Refer to the "Resuming operation" section in this chapter to resume system operation. Also, note
the following with regard to suspending system operation:
●You can remove the battery while the system is in Suspend-to-RAM or Hibernate mode in
order to install a charged battery. To prevent losing unsaved data, wait until system operation
has suspended before you remove the battery.
Note that after you remove the battery, you have approximately five minutes to replace it with a
new battery or to plug in a power supply before the buffer battery is depleted.
● Your system may be configured to suspend operation automatically after a period of inactivity.
● Your system may be configured to enter Hibernate mode automatically after a period of time in
Suspend-to-RAM mode.
●The system uses a small amount of battery power when in Suspend-to-RAM mode.
Eventually, the battery will become fully discharged.
If you will not be using the system for an extended period of time, shut down the system

system will beep periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation, shut down the system,
or attach an external power source, such as the power adapter, to the Tablet PC.
●If the battery charge drops to a critically low level while the system is running, the system is
forced into a pre-selected mode (Suspend-to-RAM or Hibernate). If this occurs, you must
either install a charged battery, or connect an appropriate external power source such as the
power adapter before you can resume system operation. (If the battery charge drops to a
critically low level while the system is in Suspend-to-RAM mode, the system stays in Suspendto-RAM mode until power is restored or totally dissipated.)
●When the system changes into suspend mode, any data transfer currently in progress is
interrupted. Therefore, some programs may block the system from suspending to prevent an
interruption.
●The suspend function of the On/Resume/Suspend button may be disabled to prevent
accidental interruption. If this is the case, pressing the On/Resume/Suspend button will not
suspend system operation as described here. (In this case, suspend mode can only be
achieved using the system software.)
●If your system is equipped with a PC card that allows you to connect to a wired or wireless
network, you may be logged off the network after a period of inactivity while system operation
is suspended. Contact your network administrator for details on log-off parameters for your
network.

Resuming operation
To resume system operation (from either Suspend-to-RAM or Hibernate mode), press the
On/Resume/Suspend button.
● From Suspend-to-RAM mode
Status indicators indicate that the system mode is changing. It may take approximately one
minute before the system returns to the ON mode and system operation resumes. Note that
the display turns on shortly before the pen becomes active due to the power-up sequences
observed by the system.
●From Hibernate mode
Active data is read from the hard disk drive. The system returns to the ON mode after a short
time.
Note that power to several system components must be restored before system operation

resumes. Allow sufficient time for system operation to resume before attempting to use
the system.
If your system uses the Suspend mode "Hibernate", it will take longer to resume operation
as compared to using Suspend-to-RAM mode. Time is needed to read data from the hard
disk drive.
All programs resume at the point where execution stopped when system operation was suspended.

improperly. Handle the pen with care.
The following list contains guidelines for proper pen handling:
● Do not gesture with the pen.
● Do not use the pen as a pointer.
● Do not tap the pen on surfaces other than the screen of the Tablet PC.
● Do not try to turn the thumb grip on the pen. The thumb grip is designed for inserting
and removing the pen from the pen garage and for attaching a pen tether.
●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. To avoid damage, the pen should be stored in the pen garage
when not in use.

Tips for conserving battery power
Battery life is dependent upon the operating system, power settings, and applications in use. You
can extend the charge life of your battery by conserving battery power:
●Use an external power source such as the power adapter whenever the system is docked to a
Tablet Dock.
● Shut down the system if you won’t be using the system for an extended period of time.
● Use energy options of the operating system to help you conserve power.
● If you do not use the Tablet PC for a short time, you can minimise and/or switch off the screen
lighting according to model in order to save energy.
Buffer battery
When installed in the Tablet PC, the battery provides power to some system components - even
when the system is in the OFF mode. When the battery is removed, power is supplied to these
components by a buffer battery that is built into the Tablet PC.
The buffer battery is not designed for long-term operation. To maintain the buffer battery properly,
observe the following measures:
The buffer battery function is disabled if Wake On LAN is enabled in the BIOS Setup.

telephone numbers are contained in the "Help Desk" supplement. Passwords are not
covered by your warranty and a charge will be made for assistance.
With the Kensington MicroSaver you can protect your Tablet PC from theft. For this reason your
Tablet PC is equipped with a device for the Kensington MicroSaver. The Kensington MicroSaver is
available as an accessory.
Security Panel (only under Windows)
The security panel enables you to protect your Tablet PC from unauthorised use with a password.
When a Security Panel password is activated, the Tablet PC will not start without the correct
insertion of a password. The password is entered before the BIOS is read out and the hardware
activated.
The password is requested from all suspend and resume modes. This ensures a high level of
security even with the energy-saving mode activated.
BIOS password protection
You can protect you personal data from unauthorised access with various passwords. By combining
these different options, you can achieve maximum protection for your system.
Password protection for the BIOS setup
With the Supervisor password you prevent unauthorised opening of the BIOS Setup, and with it
access to important system settings. In the BIOS Setup you can also activate protection for the
operating system and your hard disk.
A26391-K145-Z120-1-7619, edition 3 37
Page 46
Security functions
Password protection for the operating system
With corresponding settings in the BIOS Setup you can block starting of the operating system. Only
those who know the supervisor or user password can access the system.
Password protection for your hard disk
By activating the hard disk protection in the BIOS Setup you prevent unauthorised access to the hard
disk drive. The hard disk password is checked internally during each system start-up and ensures
that the hard disk can only be used in conjunction with the related device.
SmartCard reader
A SmartCard reader is integrated in your Tablet PC. You can use a SmartCard (optional accessory)
as a particularly secure alternative to password protection or as an addition to password protection.
Using Trusted Platform Module (optional)
A Trusted Platform Module (TPM), a special security chip, can optionally be integrated into your
device. The TPM functions like a permanently installed SmartCard. However, the TPM is not linked
to a user like a SmartCard, but instead to a hardware system. The TPM contains a unique code. As
a result, the TPM is used for the clear identification and authentication of the device.
Requirement: The supervisor password is present.
To use the TPM, you must activate the TPM in the BIOS Setup. The TPM is activated by selecting
the Enabled entry for Security Chip in the Security menu in the Security Chip Setting submenu.
If you have activated the TPM, the menu item Clear Security Chip appears. You can use this menu
item to delete the key in the TPM. However, you can then no longer access the data that you
encrypted with the key.
When the TPM is activated, together with the BIOS it checks the trustworthiness of all hardware
components.
For example, with the TPM activated together with software that has TPM capability, data can be
generated which can only be read or run on this Convertible PC. The support of security protocols,
such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer) for Internet connections, IPSec (LAN encryption), S-MIME (email encryption, WLAN encryption and others) is also possible.
On the supplied TPM software CD/DVD you will find software that, in conjunction with the TPM,
enhances the security of your system. Information on using the TPM and the related software is
provided on the TPM software CD/DVD.
If you use TPM and the software on the TPM software CD/DVD, we strongly recommend
i
that you use the emergency restoration function and create a medium (e.g. floppy disk,
network drive) for restoration in emergencies.
You can only re-access your encrypted data using the medium you created for emergency
restoration if, for example, a security key is lost due to hardware faults.

Care and maintenance
On the road with your Tablet PC
Please observe the points listed below when travelling with your Tablet PC.
Before you travel
● Remove the Tablet PC from the Tablet Dock.
● For safety reasons, switch the radio components (Wireless LAN/ Bluetooth) on the Tablet PC
off if you are not sure whether the emitted radio waves would affect the electrical and
electronic equipment around you.
●If you wish to use your Tablet PC during a flight, check first with the flight attendants if it is
permissible to do so.
●If you are travelling abroad, check that the mains adapter can be operated with the local mains
voltage. If this is not the case, obtain the appropriate power adapter for your Tablet PC.
Do not use any other voltage converter!
If you travel in another country, check whether the local power supply and the
i
specifications of the power cable are compatible. If this is not the case, buy a power cable
that matches the local conditions. Do not use a connection adapter for electrical devices
to connect the Tablet PC.
If you use a modem, incompatibilities with the local telecommunications system may
result.
Make sure that you enter the correct connection data for your current location.
Transporting Tablet PC

Care and maintenance
Cleaning the display screen
Clean the display by wiping the screen surface gently using a soft cotton cloth dampened with
isopropyl alcohol.
The Tablet PC is not waterproof. Do not pour liquids on the system or wash it with a
!
heavily soaked cloth.
Storing the Tablet PC
Store the Tablet PC in the OFF mode. Be sure, that the installed battery is fully charged. You can
store the Tablet PC in the OFF mode for about 30 days with a fully charged battery installed. After
this period, the battery should be recharged or replaced with a charged battery.
If you intend to store the Tablet PC for a longer period of time, the small battery that maintains
system time may need to be replaced. Replacement of the battery should only be performed by
authorised technicians.
Avoiding overheating
The Tablet PC monitors its internal temperature. As the internal temperature approaches the
tolerable limits of heat-sensitive components, system functions are automatically limited or turned
off to prevent damage.
To avoid overheating the Tablet PC, do not obstruct the ventilation slots of the device.
Configuring peripheral interfaces
Certain peripheral devices can be disabled during the BIOS Setup. If the peripheral interface you want
to use does not appear to be working with your peripheral device, ensure that it is enabled in the
BIOS Setup.

Troubleshooting and tips
In the following sections possible solutions to problems that may occur are described. If you are
experiencing a problem with your Tablet PC that you cannot solve by taking the actions described,
contact your sales partner or hotline/help desk for further assistance.
System will not resume operation
If the system will not resume operation after system operation has been suspended, check the
following possible causes:
●The battery may either be defective, or discharged to the critically low level. When the battery
reaches the critically low level, the system is forced into Suspend-to-RAM mode to avoid a
total system power failure. To correct this problem, either connect an external power supply
(such as the power adapter), or install a charged battery in the Tablet PC.
●The system may be at the critical thermal limit. System operation cannot be resumed until the
device cools off to the permissible temperature. Move the Tablet PC to a cooler location.
Display screen is blank or difficult to read
If the display screen of your Tablet PC appears blank or is unreadable, confirm that the system is
running (the power indicator is displayed on the status display), and check the following:
●The system brightness may be set too low, causing the screen to appear too dark. To change
brightness, press the Fn button twice to open the Fujitsu Menu. This menu contains the tab for
changing the brightness.
●The video timeout may have expired. Tap on the display screen to reactivate the display. Note
that this is a normal, power-saving feature.
Cursor is not tracking pen
If the cursor on the screen appears to be misaligned with the pen or is not accurately tracking the
pen, calibrate the pen.
To calibrate, please run the Tablet and Pen Settings function in the Control Panel.

Troubleshooting and tips
Infrared data transfer is not working
If you are experiencing problems transferring data over the infrared receiver of the device, note the
following:
●Can the infrared receiver on the Tablet PC "see" the infrared interface on the other device? A
direct line-of-sight path must exist between the infrared receiver on the Tablet PC and the
infrared interface on the other device.
● The distance between the two devices must not be more than approximately 3 feet.
● The viewing angle from the infrared receiver on the Tablet PC must not be more than 15
degrees from a centre line between the infrared receiver on the Tablet PC and the infrared
interface on the other device.
●The device with which you are trying to communicate must be compliant with the IrDA
Standard Revision 1.1 (or 1.0).
●It may be necessary for both computers to be using the same network connection protocols.
Device is not responding to the pen
If your Tablet PC does not respond to the pen, connect an external keyboard to the system to see if
it responds to keyboard commands.
●If the system doesn't respond to a keyboard, the application or system may have crashed. It
may be necessary to reboot the system.
●If the system responds to a keyboard but not to a pen, contact your sales partner or
hotline/help desk.
Speaker/headphone volume is too low
If the volume on your Tablet PC speaker or external headphones is too low, check the following:
●Ensure that the speaker (or headphone output if using headphones) is enabled. To do so,
open the Control Panel and double-click on the Sounds and Audio Devices icon. Select the
appropriate tab and deselect the mute box (if it is selected). If you still have no sound, increase
the volume carefully using the volume slider.
● Press the Fn button twice to open the Fujitsu Menu. This menu contains the tab for adjusting
