software utilities that let you operate and configure your LifeBook Security /Application Panel.
Configuring your LifeBook Application Panel
When you start Windows, the LifeBook Application Panel is automatically activated. As an application
launcher, the LifeBook Application Panel is very flexible, giving you a variety of options. To set up the
Panel to best suit your needs, we have provided the Application Panel Setup utility that quickly and easily
helps you make the most of this valuable feature.
To configure your LifeBook Application Panel with Application Panel Setup:
1 Click on [Start].
2 Click on Programs.
3 Click on LifeBook Application Panel.
4 Click on Setup of LifeBook Application Panel. The Button Setting utility will appear. There are tabs that
correspond to the application buttons on the LifeBook Application Panel. When you receive your notebook,
these buttons are pre-configured to launch specific programs, as referenced in Chapter 7 of this document.
To change an application associated with the Application buttons:
1 Click on the tab for the button you would like to reconfigure – for example, Application A.
2 Select Enable this button, then click on the [Application Registration] button.
3 On the screen that appears, click the Select from Start Menu checkbox, then scroll down the list to select the
application you want to start with the Application A button.
4 Click [Next] -> [Next] -> [Finish]. On the Button Setting window, click [Apply], then click [OK]. The button will now
