Infrared Data Transfer

Using the computer's built-in infrared communication port (IrDA compliant), you can transfer data to and from other computers with an infrared port.

Infrared Communication Port

NOTE

Assuming two computers, it is necessary to make the appropriate settings on both computers so that the addresses of the infrared communication ports can be used. It is recommended that the distance between the two infrared communication ports is between 20 cm (0.65 feet) and 50 cm (1.64 feet). Data transfer may be affected if there is a TV, VCR, wireless headphone set, incandescent bulb, or stove nearby, or if the computers are in direct sunlight.

Select [Start]-[Programs]-[TranXit]-[TranXit].

TranXit can be used to perform data synchronization (updating the file and data information on both computers to the latest version) and transfer files between two computers.

How to use "On-Line Manual"-"Infrared Communication Software"

NOTE

TranXit must be installed on both computers for data transfer. Also, it is necessary to assign a different "Computer Name" to each computer; use [Setup]-[Computer Name] to change the name.

Battery Pack

A rechargeable battery pack is included with the computer. Power is supplied by the battery pack when the AC adaptor is not in use.

CAUTION

Do not insert sharp objects into the battery pack, expose it to bumps or shock, deform it,

disassemble it, or modify it.

If the battery should leak and some of the fluid gets into your eyes, do not rub your eyes. Immediately flush your eyes with clear water and see a doctor for medical treatment as soon as possible.

It is recommended that spare battery packs be put into plastic bags before they are transported.

Do not leave the battery pack for extended periods where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, in a hot place (in an automobile on a sunny day, for example), or in a cold place.

Do not throw the battery pack into a fire or expose it to heating.

Do not short the positive (+) and negative (-) contacts using a piece of metal, or the like.

Do not place the battery pack together with articles such as necklaces or hairpins when carrying or storing it.

Use only the specified battery pack (CF-VZS611) and specified charger (CF-VCB611) with your computer.

Should the battery emit an abnormal oder, become hot to the touch, become discolored, change shape, or become in any way different from normal, remove it from the unit or charger and discontinue use.

NOTE

Always power off the computer when it is not in use. Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not connected will exhaust the remaining

battery capacity.

If the battery pack will not be used for a long period of time (a month or more), do a half-

charge and store it in a cool, dry place. Also, be sure to charge and discharge the battery pack a minimum of once per 6 months.

The battery pack can become warm during normal operation; this is not a malfunction. The computer's allowable operating temperature range is 5oC (41oF) to 35oC (95oF). The amount of time the computer can be run off the battery pack will be shorter if it is cold. The battery temperature may rise significantly due to a large discharge caused by a heavy

load. If this happens, the battery indicator lights red, a beep sounds, and the letters " " (overload) flash on and off. Should this happen, reduce the load on the battery pack by connecting the AC adaptor. You can also use the power consumed by the computer more effectively by lowering the brightness of the display, switching off the power supply of the PD/CD drive, or other devices. Also, note that the processing level of the computer is lowered automatically when an overload occurs in order to prevent the battery pack from overheating. Normal operation resumes when the battery pack's temperature returns to a normal level. If power discharge continues for 5 minutes or more while the battery pack's temperature remains high, the computer switches automatically to the suspend mode and turns itself off.

If the battery indicator flashes red and an error code is displayed in the status LCD during

charging, the internal protection circuit has been triggered and charging has stopped. Should this occur, remove the AC adaptor and the battery pack from the computer and then reattach them. If the problem occurs repeatedly, contact your nearest Panasonic Service Center.

Do not touch the electrical contacts of the battery pack. Do not put the battery into a microwave oven or a pressurized chamber. Do not expose the battery to fresh or sea water, or allow it to become wet.

Charging the Battery Pack

The supplied battery pack is not charged at the time of purchase. Therefore, be sure to charge the battery pack before using the computer. With the battery pack loaded, connect the AC adaptor. Charging begins automatically. Check the battery indicator to confirm the charging status.

NOTE

It is not possible to charge the battery pack if the ambient temperature is not between 5oC

(41oF) and 35oC (95oF). If an attempt is made to charge the battery pack when the ambient temperature is outside the allowable range, the battery indicator will flash orange 5 times. Charging will begin automatically as soon as the ambient temperature returns to the allowable range.

The bottom of the main unit can become warm during charging; this is not a malfunction.

The charging time will vary with the usage conditions, but it is generally about 9 hours if the

computer is turned on, 3 hours otherwise.

Charging stops temporarily and the battery indicator goes off temporarily when the PD/CD

drive is being accessed. If the automatic play function* is turned on, the drive is accessed periodically to determine if a PD or CD is present even if no disk is loaded. It is therefore recommended that the automatic play function be turned off while charging the battery pack. * The automatic play function causes play to begin automatically if a PD or CD is loaded in

the PD/CD drive while Windows is running. This function can be turned on or off by selecting [System Properties]-[Device Manager]. (The automatic play function is turned off as the default.)

Charging does not take place while the motor of the PD/CD drive is running. Once the motor

starts running, it does not stop until the PD/CD motor timeout has elapsed. It is recommended that the PD/CD motor timeout be set to "1 minute" when charging the battery.

When the computer is used for the very first time, or after a prolonged period of storage, the

battery indicator may light red for a long time, or, when charging the battery, the status LCD battery charge remaining indicator may continue to display "99%" for a long time. In such cases, use the procedure below to correct the battery charge remaining indicator.

- Connect the AC adaptor and charge the battery until the battery indicator lights green.

- Disconnect the AC adaptor and allow the battery to discharge completely.

The computer is equipped with an anti-overcharging function that prevents charging if the

charge remaining is 95% or more. In order to recharge the battery under these conditions, first discharge the battery pack to less than 95%, then recharge it.

Battery Pack

Replacing the Battery pack

If the power stored in the battery pack reaches a low level while the computer is being run off the battery pack, the battery indicator lights red and repeated beeps sound from the speakers. Should this occur , either immediately connect the AC adaptor or replace the battery pack with a fully charged one. The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount of time the computer can be run off a particular battery pack becomes dramatically shorter, and repeated rechargings do not restore its performance, the battery pack should be replaced with a new one (part number: CF-VZS611).
