Using the NFC connection

Near field communication (NFC) is a high-frequency and short-range wireless communications technology.
Depending on the model, your tablet might come with the NFC feature. By using the NFC feature, you can
establish radio communications between your tablet and another NFC-enabled device over a distance no
more than a few centimeters.

If your tablet is equipped with the NFC feature, the NFC logo

is printed on the tablet.

By default, the NFC feature is enabled. If the NFC feature of your tablet is disabled, do the following to
enable the NFC feature:

1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen to display the charms.

2. Tap Settings Change PC settings Network Radio devices.

3. Slide the NFC control to the right to enable the NFC feature.

If you still cannot enable the NFC feature, check the NFC setting in the ThinkPad Tablet Setup program
by doing the following:

1. Start the ThinkPad Tablet Setup program. See “Security menu” on page 61.

2. Tap Security I/O Port Access.

3. Set the NFC option to On.

You can use the NFC feature with NFC-supported programs, such as the Lenovo QuickCast program
and the Lenovo QuickDisplay program.

In some scenarios, you might want to use an NFC card or an NFC-enabled smartphone with your tablet to
transfer data. The following sections provide instructions on how to adjust the position of an NFC card and
an NFC-enabled smartphone for NFC communication.

Positioning an NFC card

Attention:

• Before positioning an NFC card, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action reduces any

static electricity from your body. Static electricity could damage the card.
