LCD screen

High-quality TFT displays are installed in notebooks from Fujitsu Technology Solutions GmbH. For technical reasons, TFT monitors are manufactured for a speci fi c resolution. An optimal, clear picture can only be ensured with the correct resolution intended for the relevant TFT monitor. A monitor resolution which differs from the speci fi cation can result in an unclear picture.

The screen resolution of the LCD monitor of your notebook is optimally set at the factory.

The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels (picture elements) may be present. The maximum permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the international standard ISO 9241-3 (Class II).

Example:

A monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 800 has 1280 x 800 = 1024000 pixels. Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 3 million subpixels in total. According to

ISO 9241-3 (class II), a maximum of 2 light and 2 dark pixels and an additional 5 light or 10 dark subpixels or a corresponding mix may be defective (1 light subpixel counts as 2 dark subpixels).

Pixel

Subpixel

Cluster

A pixel consists of 3 subpixels, normally red, green and blue. A pixel is the smallest element that can be generated by complete functionality of the display.

A subpixel is a separately addressable internal structure within a pixel that enhances the pixel function.

A cluster contains two or more defective pixels or subpixels in a 5 x 5 pixel block.

Background lighting

TFT monitors are operated with background lighting. The luminosity of the background lighting can decrease during the period of use of the notebook. However, you can set the brightness of your monitor individually.

Synchronising the display on the LCD screen and an external monitor

For more information, please refer to the chapter


under "Display output, switch between".



Webcam

Webcam

Depending on the device variant, a WebCam may be integrated in your notebook.

Depending on the software used, you can use your Webcam to take pictures, record video clips or take part in web chats.

• The picture quality depends on the lighting conditions and the software being used.

• You can only operate the webcam with a particular application (e.g. an Internet telephony program or a video conferencing program which supports a webcam).

• When using the webcam the notebook support must not wobble.

• The webcam automatically adjusts itself to the current light level. For this reason the LCD screen may fl icker while the light level is adjusted.

Further information on using the webcam and on the additional settings which are possible for your webcam can be found in the help function of the program which uses the webcam.

If you wish to carry out a function test with your webcam, you can use the corresponding test software available at "http://ts.fujitsu.com/support/" .



Rechargeable battery

When not plugged into a mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the life of the battery by caring 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.

Charging, caring for and maintaining the battery

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

You can charge the battery by connecting the notebook to the mains adapter

(see

"Mains adapter connecting", Page 16

).

If the battery is running low you will hear a warning alarm. If you do not connect the mains adapter within fi ve minutes of the warning alarm described above, your notebook will automatically switch off.

monitoring the battery charging level

Windows also has a "Battery status meter" in the taskbar for monitoring the battery capacity. When you place the mouse pointer on the battery symbol, the system displays the battery status.

Battery storage

Keep the battery pack between 0°C and +30°C. The lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored, the lower the rate of self-discharge.

If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (longer than two months), the battery charge level should be approx. 30 %. To prevent exhaustive discharge which would permanently damage the battery, check the level of charge of the battery at regular intervals.

To be able to make use of the optimal charging capacity of the batteries, the battery should be completely discharged and then fully recharged.

If you do not use the batteries for long periods, remove them from the notebook. Never store the batteries in the device.

Removing and installing the battery

Only use rechargeable batteries approved by Fujitsu Technology

Solutions for your notebook.

Never use force when fi tting or removing a battery.

Second hard disk in RAID group (device-dependent)

In order to use RAID, it is necessary to either deactivate or uninstall the

ShockSensorUtility program (see

"ShockSensorUtility", Page 37 ).

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks, also know as ’disk array’) is a method of combining two hard disk drives into one logical unit.

A disk array can be used advantageously to improve performance or alternatively to improve error tolerance (data protection).

The operating system detects all hard disks in a disk array as a single physical hard disk.

The individual hard disks in a disk array are called "members".

There are usually a few methods in which hard disks can be combined. These different methods are referred to as RAID levels. The different RAID levels represent different performance and security levels.

Depending on the size of the hard disks, the process of combining two hard disks to create a RAID group may take several hours. System performance may be impaired during this period. For further information about how to con fi gure your RAID system, please refer to the Help function of the RAID Manager software supplied with your device. The

H910 supports RAID Level 0 to increase hard disk performance.

RAID 0 (striping)

Reads and writes data sectors across multiple hard disks using interleaving.

RAID 0 does not support fault tolerance. Any data loss will affect the entire disk array if a single hard disk fails.

RAID 0 is designed to provide the highest performance. The data capacity of the disk array is equal to the number of hard disks multiplied by the capacity of the smallest hard disk. The block size can be set between 4 Kbyte and 128 Kbyte.
