Fujitsu P2000 manual Using the E-MAIL Notification LED, Using the CD Player

can reconfigure your LifeBook Application Panel as often as you like.

P O I N T

The E-mail button can be configured to launch any application you wish, not just an e-mail program.

Enabling/disabling Application Launcher button

In the center of each application setup page is a Specify the Button Action field. When you click on the drop- down arrow, you are offered two choices: Start a Program, and Never Use a Button. The first will enable the button, and the second will disable the button. You can enable/disable either of these functions simply by clicking on the option.

At the bottom of each setup page are two check boxes:

■Keep this button active even on Standby

■Keep this button active even on Hard Drive Timeout The first will enable/disable the button when your system is in Standby mode, and the second will enable/ disable the button when your hard drive has timed out.

P O I N T

If you choose to have the buttons work when the note- book is in standby or off, they will function even if hit accidentally. This will turn on your notebook even if you are not present or using your notebook. This could deplete your battery, and you will need to recharge it before using the notebook. As a precaution, close the lid when you are away from your notebook.
