Using Your Stylistic ST5100
■
You can remove the battery while the system is in
Standby or Hibernate modes 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 bridge 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 Standby
mode.
■
The system uses a small amount of battery power when
in Standby mode. Eventually, the battery will become
fully discharged.
■
If the battery charge drops to a Low-Battery Warning
level while the system is running, the system will beep
periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation,
shut down the system, or attach an external power
source, such as the AC 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
Standby or Hibernate mode. If this occurs, you must
either install a charged battery, or connect an external
power source such as the AC adapter before you can
resume system operation. (If the charge drops to a Crit-
ically Low level while the system is in Standby mode,
the system stays in that mode until power is restored or
totally dissipated.)
■
Suspending system operation interrupts data commu-
nications; therefore, some programs may block the
system from suspending to prevent an interruption.
■
The suspend action of the Suspend/Resume button
may be disabled to prevent accidental interruption. If
this is the case, pressing the Suspend/Resume button
will not suspend system operation as described here.
(In this case, standby mode can only be achieved using
the system software). Contact your local help desk or
reseller if your system configuration is not suitable.
■
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 or help desk, or call Fujitsu
Service and Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-
5487) for details on your network log-off parameters.
RESUMING SYSTEM OPERATION
To resume operation from either Standby or Hibernate
modes, press the Suspend/Resume button.
■
From Standby mode
Status lights indicate that the system state is changing.
It may take up to a minute before the system returns to
the On state 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, and the
system returns to the On state after a short time.
Use the system as you normally would once system oper-
ation resumes.
All programs resume at the point where execution
stopped when system operation was suspended.
USING THE SHOCK SENSOR UTILITY
The Shock Sensor Utility is a feature that helps to The
Shock Sensor Utility is designed to decrease the risk of
damage to the computer's hard disk drive (HDD) in the
event of excessive impact or vibration. The Shock Sensor
Utility also has the ability to improve the security of the
computer by automatically locking the computer with a
password when it is carried. Note that the HDD protec-
tion and computer locking features are mutually exclu-
sive; both cannot be selected at the same time.
1. Double-click the Shock Sensor Utility icon in the
Notification Area at the bottom-right of the screen.
The [Shock Sensor Utility] window appears.
2. Click the [Setting] button. The [Shock Sensor Utility
Settings] window appears.
Action
Select the action you wish this utility to perform:
If you will not be using the system for an
extended period, shut down the system
rather than using Standby mode.
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 Hibernate mode, it will
take longer to resume operation as
compared to using Standby mode. Time is
needed to read data from the hard disk
drive.
■
Shock Sensor Utility does not completely
protect the HDD and does not provide
absolute security for the computer.
■
The computer may stop temporarily while
the HDD head is retracted. To restart the
computer, keep the system horizontal.
