Introduction
Keypad overlay
A ten-key pad is integrated into the keyboard.
Refer to the
section in Chapter 5,
The Keyboard, for instructions on using the
keypad overlay.
Power on password
Two levels of password security, supervisor and
user, are available to prevent unauthorized
access to your computer.
Instant security
A hot key function blanks the LCD screen and
disables the computer providing data security.
Intelligent power
supply
A microprocessor in the computer’s intelligent
power supply detects the battery’s charge and
calculates the remaining battery capacity. It also
protects electronic components from abnormal
conditions, such as voltage overload from an AC
adaptor. You can monitor remaining battery
capacity. Use the Battery remaining item in
TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Battery save mode
This feature lets you save battery power. You can
specify the Power Save Mode in the Profile item
in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Panel power on/off
This feature turns power to the computer off
when the computer’s LCD display panel is closed
and turns it back on when the computer’s LCD
display panel is opened. You can specify the
setting in the When I close the lid item of the
Setup Action tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Low battery
automatic
hibernation
When battery power is exhausted to the point that
computer operation cannot be continued, the
system automatically enters Hibernation and
shuts down. You can specify the setting in the
Setup Action tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Heat dispersal
To protect from overheating, the CPU has an
internal temperature sensor. If the computer’s
internal temperature rises to a certain level, the
cooling fan is turned on or the processing speed
is lowered. Use the Cooling Method item of the
Basic Setup tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
HDD Protection
Using the acceleration sensor built into the
computer, HDD Protection detects vibration and
shock, and automatically moves the hard disk
drive read/write head to a safe position in order to
reduce the risk of damage that could be caused
by head-to-disk contact.
