INFRARED PORT
The Infrared IrDA 1.1 (4Mbps) port allows for wireless
data transfer between your LifeBook notebook and
other IrDA-compatible devices, such as another
computer or a printer, without the use of a cable. (See
Figure 2-5 on page 10 for location)
It is important to keep in mind that while carrying out
this form of communication, both devices must be
placed so their infrared ports are directly facing each
other without obstruction. The devices must also be
separated by at least 6" but no more than 36" for
maximum performance.
C A U T I O N
Do not connect the internal modem to a Digital PBX as
it may cause serious damage to the modem or your
LifeBook notebook. It should be noted that some hotels
use the Digital PBX systems, please be sure to find out
BEFORE you connect your modem. Consult your PBX
manufacturer’s documentation for more information.
P O I N T
The internal modem is designed to the ITU-T V.90
standard. Its maximum speed of 53000bps is the
highest allowed by the FCC, and its actual connection
rate depends on the line conditions. The maximum
speed is 33600bps at upload.
P O I N T S
■ A mouse, keyboard, or keypad may be installed and
automatically recognized by your notebook without
restarting or changing setups.
■ The use of two PS/2 devices simultaneously from the
port requires a PS/2 splitter.
