TERTIARY FUNCTIONS OF APPLICATION AND NAVIGATION BUTTONS

While you are booting up your system, the Application Buttons and Navigation buttons can be used for entering and navigating through the Basic Input-Output System (BIOS), and for invoking the Advanced Options Menu, where you can enter different modes (such as Safe Mode).

The BIOS is a program and a set of parameters that are stored in ROM, which tests and operates your Tablet PC from when you turn it on until it loads your installed

operating system from disk. Information from the BIOS is transferred to the operating system to provide it with information on the configuration and status of the hard- ware.

The system is booting up while the Fujitsu logo is displayed immediately after turning on the system. The table below indicates how the buttons act while the system is booting up and while you are in the BIOS.

a keyboard.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pressing the top half of the upper navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open causes

 

 

 

 

 

the cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move up. This is the same as if you had tapped Arrow Up

 

 

 

 

 

on a keyboard. This feature is also functional in the operating system boot menu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pressing the bottom half of the upper navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

causes the cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move down. This is the same as if you had tapped

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Arrow Down on a keyboard. This feature is also functional in the operating system boot menu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pressing the top half of the lower navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open causes

 

 

 

 

 

the cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move right. This is the same as if you had tapped Arrow

 

 

 

 

 

Right on a keyboard.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pressing the bottom half of the lower navigation button while the BIOS setup screen is open

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

causes the cursor in the BIOS setup screen to move left. This is the same as if you had tapped
