Optional features

This section describes the optional features available when you purchase your C5te/F5te.

Mobile broadband with GPS

You can purchase a C5te/F5te Tablet PC with an optional embedded mobile broadband with GPS module that enables you to connect to a variety of mobile broadband networks for sending and receiving data wirelessly. You can typically use mobile broadband anywhere you can use your mobile phone. Mobile broadband is based on cellular network technology, so you can use it in more places than other wireless technologies.
The GPS receiver uses satellites to determine the current location, altitude, heading, and horizontal velocity of the C5te/F5te. The augmentation feature uses signals from geostationary satellites to improve on the reliability and accuracy of the signals from the GPS satellites. You don’t need a network connection or an account with a mobile broadband network carrier to use the GPS receiver. You can use it with your preferred mapping applications to find your current and desired locations.
For information on setting up mobile broadband, see Connecting to mobile broadband on page 10.

Discrete GPS with WAAS, EGNOS, and MSAS (optional)

Your tablet may have an embedded discrete global positioning system (GPS) module that supports the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) for improved accuracy in the United States; European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) for improved accuracy in Europe; and Multi-functional Satellite Augmentation System (MSAS) for improved accuracy in Japan. The proper Augmentation system will be detected based on your location. No special selection is required.

Security

Your C5te/F5te includes several features that you can use to enhance the security of your data and serve as the foundation for complementary security technologies. The core security features include password-protected BIOS, networking control, optional Computrace® Complete tracking software, a built-in fingerprint reader, and Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2.
Chapter 1 Getting Started Optional features 2
TPM
With the built-in TPM and Infineon Security Platform Tools, you can create and manage digital certificates, user and device authentication, full disk data encryption, and restricted network access.

Using pen and touch

With the C5te/F5te Tablet PC, you can use either your finger, a digitizer pen, or both to interact with the touchscreen display. You use your digitizer pen or your finger as you would use a mouse. For example, tapping twice is the same as double-clicking a mouse. Tapping and holding is the same as right-clicking a mouse to open context-sensitive menus.
Here are some common ways to perform tasks on a touchscreen:
• Tap—Select something
• Press and hold—Open a menu of options. This is equivalent to right-clicking a mouse to
display the right-click menu. Press and hold your finger until a square appears, then lift your finger to display the menu.
• Double-tap—Perform a double-click action
• Tap and drag—Drag and drop
• Pinch fingers together—Zoom out
• Spread fingers apart—Zoom in
OTE: If the tablet doesn’t respond when you tap with your finger, try using more area of your
N
fingertip. Unlike other types of touchscreens, the C5te/F5te capacitive touchscreen doesn’t respond to other input. For example, you can’t tap it with another object such as a credit card or if you’re wearing gloves.
If the pen doesn’t respond as accurately as you would like, you can make adjustments. For example, you can:
• Use the button on the pen to perform the right-click action
• Adjust how quickly the tablet responds when you double-tap the pen
• Adjust how quickly the tablet responds when you press and hold the pen button

How to use gestures with the multi-touch display

The C5te/F5te Tablet PC touchscreen display supports multi-touch, which allows you to directly manipulate items on-screen, such as to navigate websites and view photos. For example, you can use your fingers to scroll through lists, zoom in and out, rotate, and so on.

Changing to one-tap open for touch

With touch, you may want to change how you select and open items. By default, Windows folders are set up so that you tap once to select an item and double-tap to open it. For touchscreen displays, you can change the behavior to point to select an item and open an item with one tap instead of two.
To change folder options:
1. Swipe in from the right side of the screen and tap Search.
2. Type control in the search field and then choose Control Panel from the search results.
