Instant Keys
Instant keys allow you to launch frequently used applications with one push of a button.
Details are described in section 3.
Touchpad and Buttons
The touchpad with its buttons is a pointing device that provides the same functions as a
desktop mouse. A software-controlled scrolling function is available after setting up the
included touchpad utility to allow easy Windows or web navigation.
Audio Speakers
The built-in stereo speaker system allows you to hear audio without additional attachments.
The multimedia sound system features an integrated digital audio controller that produces
rich, vibrant sound (results improved with external stereo headphones or speakers). Audio
features are software controlled.
Display Panel
The Notebook PC uses an active matrix TFT LCD, which provides excellent viewing like
that of desktop monitors. Unlike traditional desktop monitors, the LCD panel does not
produce any radiation or flickering, so it is easier on the eyes. Use a soft cloth without
chemical liquids (use plain water if necessary) to clean the display panel.
Status Indicators (front)
Status indicators represent various hardware/software conditions. See indicator details in section 3.
Camera Indicator
The camera indicator shows when the built-in camera is in use. The camera may be auto-activated
by supported software.
Keyboard
The keyboard provides full-sized keys with comfortable travel (depth at which the keys
can be depressed) and palm rest for both hands. Two Windows function keys are provided
to help ease navigation in the Windows operating system.
Microphone (Built-in)
The built-in mono microphone can be used for video conferencing, voice narrations, or simple
audio recordings.
Fingerprint Scanner (on selected models)
The built-in fingerprint scanner allows use of security software using your fingerprint as
your identification key.
Multi-Position Camera (on selected models)
The built-in camera allows picture taking or video recording. Can be used with
video conferencing and other interactive applications. CAUTION: The cam-
era can be adjusted facing forward or facing backward but can only flip
through the bottom. Do not rotate the camera upward past 35 degrees.
