Introduction

Special features

The following features are either unique to TOSHIBA computers or are

advanced features which make the computer more convenient to use.

Hot keys

Hot keys are specific key combinations that let

you quickly change the system configuration

directly from the keyboard without running a

system program.

Monitor automatic

power off

This feature automatically cuts off power to the

computer's display panel when there is no

keyboard input for a specified time, with power

being restored the next time a key is pressed.

This can be specified in the Power Management.

System automatic

Suspend/Hibernation

Mode

This feature automatically shuts down the system

into either Suspend Mode or Hibernation Mode

when there is no input or hardware access for a

specified time. This can be specified in the Power

Management.

Keypad overlay

A ten-key numeric keypad is integrated into the

keyboard. Please refer to the

Keypad overlay

The Keyboard

, for

information on using this feature.

Power on password

Two levels of password security, supervisor and

user, are available to prevent unauthorized

access to your computer.

Instant security

A specific hot key function automatically locks the

system providing data security.

Intelligent power

supply

A microprocessor in the computer's intelligent

power supply detects the battery's charge,

automatically calculates the remaining battery

capacity and protects electronic components

from abnormal conditions such as a voltage

overload from the AC adaptor. This can be

specified in the Power Management.

Low battery

automatic

Hibernation Mode

When battery power is exhausted to the point

that computer operation cannot be continued, the

system automatically enters Hibernation Mode

and shuts itself down. This can be specified in the

Power Management.

Heat dispersal

To protect against overheating, the processor has

an internal temperature sensor so that, if the

computer's internal temperature rises to a certain

level, the cooling fan is turned on or the

processing speed is lowered.
