DESKTOP CONTROL PANEL

Your LifeBook notebook includes a desktop control panel for your notebook’s desktop that you can use at any time. You may use this panel to operate the media player when you have the Selector switch in the Application position or Lock mode.

To use the desktop control panel:

1.Click on Start.

2.Click on Programs.

3.Click on Lifebook Application Panel.

4.Click on CD Player.

The desktop control panel will appear in the upper corner of your screen. To close the panel:

1. Click on the “x” button.

To minimize the panel:

2. Click on the “-” button.

You can select from four appearances for your desktop control panel. Simply double-click on the track display area of the panel, and a menu will appear which will allow you to select from a pull down menu. On the same pop-up are two other options: “Always on top” and “Continuous Play”. If you click on “Always on top” the desktop controls will always be seen on your screen, no matter what other application you are running. If you click on “Continuous Play”, your media player will automatically start over at the beginning of the CD in the drive as soon as it finishes the last track.

You can move the desktop control panel to anywhere on your desktop. Drag it by clicking on the track number display, holding it down, and dragging the control panel. When you place it where you would like, release the

mouse button.

■If you have your display set to 256 colors, the basic display will appear no matter which one you select. You will need to set your display colors to more than 256 in order to select other display appearances.

■When you close the media player’s desktop control panel, it will stop the audio media player. Simply press the Play button if you would like to continue listening, and the media player will restart at track 1. The Selector switch must be in the media player position.
