IntroductionYour CELSIUS Mobile H is a versatile and ergonomic workstation. Innovative technology andergonomic design make your CELSIUS Mobile H user-friendly and reliable.

To simplify the initial start-up of your workstation, one or two operating systems are preinstalled onthe hard disk (dual-installation). If two operating systems are preinstalled, you can select which ofthe two operating systems you want to install during initial start-up.

The energy-saving processor and the energy-saving functions that can be configured allow you tomake the most effective use of the battery capacity.

Your WORKSTATION has 128 -1024 Mbyte of main memory installed, depending on the upgrade level.Data is stored on a hard disk drive. Your workstation is also equipped with a 3 1/2-inch disk drive.Your workstation is shipped with a combo drive (CD-RW/DVD). A PC card slot (CardBus orPCMCIA) enables the device to operate two type II PC cards or one type III PC card. Depending onthe variant, your workstation may be equipped with an internal mini-PCI board.

Your workstation has connectors for external devices such as an external monitor, a printer, and amouse. The ECP capable parallel port is designed for fast bi-directional data transfer. You canconnect peripheral devices such as a scanner, loudspeakers, gamepads, keyboard, or mouse viathe two USB ports. A video output lets you connect a television or video device.

For convenient operation your workstation is equipped with a removable radio keyboard. For mousecontrol, the radio keyboard has a touchpad with touchpad buttons.

An audio controller, two built in loudspeakers, and a built in microphone provide your workstationwith audio functionality. You can thus incorporate voice, noise effects and music into yourworkstation environment. You can also connect an external microphone and an externalloudspeaker. Furthermore a digital audio output (SPDIF) is provided.

The system settings of the workstation can be configured via the user-friendly BIOS Setupprogramme. Certain system settings (e.g. screen display, energy saving functions) can be modifiedvia various key combinations while you are using the workstation.

Your workstation has a number of security features to ensure that no unauthorised persons canaccess your data. For example, you can activate a screen saver with password protection. Thesecurity functions in the BIOS Setup also allow you to protect your data by means of passwords.

LCD display panel

Information on LCD monitorHigh-quality TFT monitors are installed in CELSIUS Mobile H workstations from Fujitsu SiemensComputers GmbH. The specification of the monitor resolution indicates how many pixels can bedisplayed. For example, "UXGA" stands for 1600 x 1200 pixels. Each pixel consists of three so-called subpixels of the colours red, green and blue. As a result, a UXGA monitor consists of1600 x 1200 x 3 = 5.760.000 subpixels.

The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free monitor. Afew isolated constant lit or unlit pixels may be present. To ensure the highest possible quality,Fujitsu Siemens Computers uses only monitors that at least comply with the standardDIN ISO 13406-2 (Class III).

TFT monitors are operated with background lighting. The luminosity of the background lighting candecrease during the period of use of the monitor. The brightness of your monitor can be setindividually with the brightness control keys of the keyboard.

Display settings

Setting the desktop area

You can change the screen resolution under Start - Settings- Control Panel - Display - Settings and thenselecting from the Resolution field.

Adjusting the font size

Under Start - Settings - Control Panel - Display - Settings you can choose between a larger and asmaller font in the Font size field.

Adjusting the speed of the mouse pointer

You can change the speed of the mouse pointer under Start - Settings - Control Panel - Mouse andclicking on the Motion tab.

Setting the display brightness

You can adjust the brightness of your LCD screen with the keys [Fn][Fn][Fn][Fn] and [F12][F12][F12][F12] or [Fn][Fn][Fn][Fn] and [F11][F11][F11][F11]:With [Fn][Fn][Fn][Fn] and [F12][F12][F12][F12], screen brightness will be reduced and with [Fn][Fn][Fn][Fn] and [F11][F11][F11][F11] increased.

BatteryThe battery is one of the most important components of your workstation. When not plugged into amains outlet, the workstation runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the life of the battery bycaring for the battery properly. The average battery life is around 500 charge/discharge cycles.You can extend the battery life by taking advantage of the available energy saving functions.

!You should use only batteries identified by the number P/N S26391-F300-V210. Onlythese batteries are released for use with your workstation.

Take care not to drop the batteries or otherwise damage their casing (fire risk).

If the rechargeable batteries are defective, they must not be used.

Do not touch the contacts of the batteries.

Never interconnect the positive and negative terminals of a battery.

Used batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations (special waste).

Observe the information on battery storage in the chapter "Important notes".

Performing the battery learning cycleThe battery contains electronics that continuously monitor the battery charging level and display thecurrent charging level. To compensate for measuring errors in the electronics, and because thechemical properties of the battery change over time, the electronics must be recalibrated regularly.This calibration is carried out using a battery learning cycle. Using the battery learning cycle ensuresthat the maximum battery capacity can always be used. During the learning cycle a defined chargingcycle is carried out.

iThe battery learning cycle lasts between four and six hours and must not be aborted.During this period you can not work with the workstation!

Ê Restart the workstation (switching On/Off or warm boot).

The following display briefly appears on the screen during start-up:

<ESC> Diagnostic screen <F12> Boot Menu <F2> BIOS Setup <F6> Batterylearning

Ê Press function key [F6][F6][F6][F6].

The learning cycle is started. When the learning cycle is ended, a corresponding message isdisplayed.

A26391-K124-Z100-1-7619 33

Charging the battery

The battery indicator displays the remaining battery charge (see the chapter "Indicators on theworkstation"). When you switch on the workstation, it takes a few seconds before the battery statusis displayed.

You can charge the battery by connecting the workstation to the power adapter (see "Connectingthe power adapter and switching on the workstation for the first time").

The battery can only be charged when the ambient temperature is between 5°C and max. 35°C.

With the workstation switched on and off, the battery will completely recharge in approximately threeto four hours.

Work in the battery mode until an acoustic warning prompts you to recharge and the batteryindicator begins to flash. The workstation battery should not be charged before this point.

If you do not connect the power adapter within five minutes of the signals described above, yourworkstation automatically switches itself off.

Monitoring the battery charging levelThe remaining battery charge is indicated by the battery symbol in the status indicator panel (seethe chapter "Indicators on the workstation"). When you switch on the workstation, it takes a fewseconds before the battery status is displayed.

During mobile operation you can also use a "battery charge meter" for energy-saving monitoringunder Windows.A battery icon is shown in the taskbar. When you place the mouse pointer on the battery symbol,the system displays the battery status.

100 80 60 40 20

You can also see the battery's charging state onthe battery itself.

There are five indicators next to the finger iconon the battery telling you what percentage of thebattery is charged.

Ê Press the finger icon.

The corresponding indicator lights up.

iIf no power adapter is connected to the workstation, the keyboard battery will be chargedby the workstation battery. Even if the workstation is switched off, the keyboard battery ischarging and detracts energy from the workstation battery.

Security functionsYour workstation enables you to protect your system and personal data against unauthorisedaccess in a number of ways. By combining these options, you can achieve maximum protection foryour system.

In this chapter you will learn which security functions your workstation is equipped with, whichadvantages these functions offer you and how to configure and use them.

!Passwords must be assigned for some security functions. Please be sure to note thesepasswords, as otherwise you will no longer be able to access your system.

We recommend that you make a note of the passwords and keep them in a safe place.

If you lose both the user and the supervisor passwords, you must contact our Help Desk.The phone numbers can be found in the "Safety" manual. The loss of passwords is not awarranty case and is therefore subject to charge.

Overview of all security functionsThe following sections contain a brief description of the security functions that are provided with yourworkstation as standard equipment.

Kensington LockWith the Kensington MicroSaver, a sturdy steel cable, you can protect your workstation from theft.For this reason your workstation is equipped with a device for the Kensington MicroSaver. TheKensington MicroSaver is available as an accessory.

Password protectionYou can protect you personal data from unauthorised access with various passwords. By combiningthese 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 itaccess to important system settings. In the BIOS Setup you can also activate protection for theoperating system and your hard disk.

Password protection for the operating system

With corresponding settings in the BIOS Setup you can block starting of the operating system. Onlythose 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 harddisk drive. The hard disk password is checked internally during each system start-up and ensuresthat the hard disk can only be used in conjunction with the related device.

Security functions

50 A26391-K124-Z100-1-7619

SmartCard readerYour workstation also allows operation of a SmartCard via the SmartCard slot. The SmartCard canbe used as a particularly secure alternative or as an addition to password protection. SmartCardsare just as useful for digital signatures or for encrypting e-mails.

You can also read out other cards with your SmartCard reader (e.g. cell phone cards, healthinsurance cards, bank cards). For this purpose you also require the software matched to therespective card.

Fingerprint sensorYour workstation is equipped with a fingerprint sensor. You can use the fingerprint sensor as analternative to the BIOS password as system protection. By the way you can use the fingerprint-sensor under any operating system.

Configuring and using SmartCard readerYour workstation is equipped with a SmartCard slot and a special chip to read your SmartCards.

SmartCardsSmartCards are not supplied as standard equipment. You can use all SmartCards that comply withISO Standard 7816-1, -2, -3 or -4 and are PC SC-compatible. These SmartCards are available fromvarious manufacturers. Under Windows 2000 or Windows XP we recommend the SICRYPT card, asthe drivers for this SmartCard are already preinstalled under Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

With the appropriate software you can use your SmartCard as an alternative to password protection,but also as a digital signature or for encrypting your e-mails.

With the security software Smarty (available as an accessory) you can assign a password to yourSmartCard. This enables you to safely log on to the operating system under Windows 2000 andunder Windows XP.

We recommend that you always use two SmartCards. Always keep one of the SmartCards in a safeplace if you carry the other SmartCard with you.

iThe SmartCard can only be used with a PIN so protection is maintained even when theSmartCard is lost. After the incorrect PIN is entered three times, the card is blocked.

The first time you use your SmartCard you must enter the preset PIN provided by theSmartCard manufacturer or your system administrator.

Application examples

SmartCard as device protection

After switching on the workstation and inserting the SmartCard you are asked to enter your PIN.Upon correct entry the SmartCard is checked and the operating system is booted.

The SmartCard remains in the SmartCard holder during the entire work session.

iWhen the Smarty software (accessory) is used, a password is stored on the SmartCard.This password needs only be entered during the initial setup and in the case of passwordchanges. As a result, a long cryptic character sequence can be used as password whichoffers greater security than a simple password.

In Smarty you can specify how the user is to log on to the operating system:

• only with SmartCard and PIN

• either with SmartCard and PIN or with password entry

To install, configure and use Smarty, please see the documentation and online help on theCD for the Smarty software.

SmartCard for protecting your opened documents

The range of functions of the SmartCard enables you to interrupt your work. Thanks to theSmartCard, you can leave your workstation unattended without unauthorised persons being able toaccess your opened documents and data.

Ê Pull the SmartCard out of the workstation during your work session.

A window appears stating that the system is locked.

Ê When you want to continue your work, insert the SmartCard and enter your PIN.

You return to your opened documents.

SmartCard for creating user profiles

With the Smarty software you can assign individual rights for different users within a network with thesame basic installation under Windows 2000 and Windows XP. You save these individual userprofiles on the SmartCards of the individual users with Smarty. As a result, each user finds his/herindividual configuration at any workstation within the network simply by inserting his/her SmartCard.

Please see the documentation and the online help on the CD for the Smarty software for instructionson how to create the personal user profiles.

Using SmartCard for digital signatures

In place of credit card numbers or a bank connection, many e-commerce suppliers also acceptSmartCards for concluding sales contracts. Observe the corresponding information at the websitesyou visit. A prerequisite for this is Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

Using SmartCard for e-mail encryption

To encrypt your e-mails using your SmartCard under Windows 2000/Windows XP you require an e-mail program that permits SmartCard encryption.

Using SmartCard for online banking
