Introduction

Your CELSIUS Mobile H is a versatile and ergonomic workstation. Innovative technology and ergonomic design make your CELSIUS Mobile H user-friendly and reliable. To simplify the initial start-up of your workstation, one or two operating systems are preinstalled on the hard disk (dual-installation). If two operating systems are preinstalled, you can select which of the two operating systems you want to install during initial start-up. The energy-saving processor and the energy-saving functions that can be configured allow you to make the most effective use of the battery capacity. Your WORKSTATION has 128 -1024 Mbyte of main memory installed, depending on the upgrade level. Data is stored on a hard disk drive. Your workstation is also equipped with a 3 1/2-inch disk drive. Your workstation is shipped with a combo drive (CD-RW/DVD). A PC card slot (CardBus or PCMCIA) enables the device to operate two type II PC cards or one type III PC card. Depending on the variant, your workstation may be equipped with an internal mini-PCI board. Your workstation has connectors for external devices such as an external monitor, a printer, and a mouse. The ECP capable parallel port is designed for fast bi-directional data transfer. You can connect peripheral devices such as a scanner, loudspeakers, gamepads, keyboard, or mouse via the two USB ports. A video output lets you connect a television or video device. For convenient operation your workstation is equipped with a removable radio keyboard. For mouse control, the radio keyboard has a touchpad with touchpad buttons. An audio controller, two built in loudspeakers, and a built in microphone provide your workstation with audio functionality. You can thus incorporate voice, noise effects and music into your workstation environment. You can also connect an external microphone and an external loudspeaker. Furthermore a digital audio output (SPDIF) is provided. The system settings of the workstation can be configured via the user-friendly BIOS Setup programme. Certain system settings (e.g. screen display, energy saving functions) can be modified via various key combinations while you are using the workstation. Your workstation has a number of security features to ensure that no unauthorised persons can access your data. For example, you can activate a screen saver with password protection. The security functions in the BIOS Setup also allow you to protect your data by means of passwords. This Operating Manual tells you how to put your workstation into operation and how to operate it in daily use. Additional information on your workstation is contained in the following documents:

Battery storage

If you do not intend to use the battery for long periods of time, remove it from the workstation. Never store the battery in the device.
Store the battery in a fully charged state. The battery should be stored in a dry area at a temperature between 0C and +30C. The lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored, the lower is the rate of self-discharge. If storing for a long period of time (longer than two months) batteries should be fully charged before storage. To be able to use the optimum battery charging capacity, you should work in the battery mode until the battery is completely discharged, and then recharge the battery.
Transporting the workstation
Please observe the points listed below when transporting your workstation.

Before you travel

If the removable keyboard is operated by a radio connection, your workstation may not be switched on during a flight. In this case switch off the keyboard also (see chapter "Working with the workstation"). However, you can also operate the keyboard without a radio connection (see chapter "Working with the workstation"). Copy important data from the hard disk onto a floppy disk. If you are travelling abroad, ensure that the power adapter can be operated with the local mains voltage. If this is not the case, obtain the appropriate power adapter for your workstation. Do not use any other voltage converter!
If you travel in another country, check whether the local power supply and the specifications of the power cable are compatible. If this is not the case, buy a power cable that matches the local conditions. Do not use a connection adapter for electrical devices to connect the workstation. If you use a modem, incompatibilities with the local telecommunications system may result.
Remove all data carriers (e.g. floppy disk, CD) from the drives. Switch off the workstation. Unplug the power adapter and all peripheral devices from the mains outlet. Disconnect the power adapter cable and the data cables of all peripheral devices. Close the LCD display of the workstation so that it locks into place. If the device needs to be shipped, use the original packaging or other suitable packaging to protect it from damage caused by mishandling. To protect against damaging jolts and bumps, use a carrying case to transport your workstation. Protect the workstation from severe shocks and extreme temperatures (e.g., direct sunlight in a car).

Indicators on the keyboard
CapsLK indicator (Caps Lock) The Caps Lock key has been pressed. All the characters you type appear in uppercase. In the case of overlay keys, the character printed on the upper left of the key appears when that key is pressed. Scroll indicator (Scroll Lock) The [Scr] key has been pressed. The effect this key has varies from programme to programme.
NumLK indicator (Num Lock) The [Num LK] key on the external keyboard has been pressed. The numeric keypad on the external keyboard is enabled. The numbers on the lower left on keys in the integrated numeric keypad are enabled. Rechargeable battery indicator keyboard Shows how much charge the keyboard battery has left.
The indicator lights up: The keyboard battery is charging. The indicator flashes: The keyboard battery is nearly empty.
Place the keyboard on the workstation again to recharge the keyboard battery.
Radio connection indicator The indicator lights up: The radio connection is active. If no keyboard cable is connected, input via keyboard and touchpad is possible only when the indicator lights up.

Description of keys

The keyboard of your workstation is subject to continuous wear due to normal use. The keyboard markings are subjected to particularly high loads. The keyboard markings can wear off in the course of using the workstation.
The following description of keys refers to Windows. Additional functions supported by the keys are described in the relevant manuals supplied with your application programmes. The figure below shows how to access the different characters on keys with overlaid functions. The example applies when the CapsLK indicator is not lit.

If the numeric keypad is enabled (NumLK indicator is lit) and you hold down the [Fn] key, you can output the characters printed in blue on the bottom right of the keys.

Key combinations

The following description of key combinations refers to functions when using Microsoft Windows. Some of the following key combinations may not function in other operating systems and with some device drivers. Other key combinations are described in the relevant manuals supplied with your application programmes. Key combinations are performed as follows:
Press and hold the first key in the combination.
Working with the workstation
While holding the first key down, press the other key or keys in the combination.
If the external keyboard does not feature an [Fn] key, you can simultaneously press the [Ctrl] + [Alt Gr] keys or the [Ctrl] + [Alt] keys.
Connecting keyboard and workstation ("Pair") This key combination "acquaints" keyboard and workstation (function "Pair", preset at the factory). You need this key combination only when you have to replace the keyboard supplied with your workstation by a new one. Undocking This key combination prepares the workstation for undocking from the Port Replicator. Enlarge MS-DOS screen This key combination enlarges the screen in the MS-DOS mode to the fullscreen mode or switches it back to the normal display mode. Switch internal touchpad on/off This key combination enables and disables the touchpad function. To do this, set the setting Internal Pointing Device to Auto Disabled in the BIOS Setup in the menu Advanced - Keyboard/Mouse Features. Switch Speed Step mode on This key combination switches between the possible Speed Step modes: Maximum power Battery-optimised power (reduced process speed in battery mode) Switching the loudspeakers on/off This key combination switches your device's integrated loudspeakers off and on. Increasing the volume This key combination raises the volume of the integrated loudspeakers. Reducing the volume This key combination reduces the volume of the integrated loudspeakers. Switching between internal and external screen If an external monitor is connected, the monitor on which the output is to be displayed can be selected with this key combination. You can opt to use: just the workstation's LCD screen just the external monitor both the LCD screen and the external monitor. Increasing screen brightness This key combination increases screen brightness. Decreasing screen brightness This key combination decreases screen brightness.

Battery

The battery is one of the most important components of your workstation. When not plugged into a mains outlet, the workstation runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the life of the battery by caring for the battery properly. The average battery life is around 500 charge/discharge cycles. You can extend the battery life by taking advantage of the available energy saving functions.
You should use only batteries identified by the number P/N S26391-F300-V210. Only these batteries are released for use with your workstation. Take care not to drop the batteries or otherwise damage their casing (fire risk). If the rechargeable batteries are defective, they must not be used. Do not touch the contacts of the batteries. Never interconnect the positive and negative terminals of a battery. Used batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations (special waste). Observe the information on battery storage in the chapter "Important notes".
Performing the battery learning cycle
The battery contains electronics that continuously monitor the battery charging level and display the current charging level. To compensate for measuring errors in the electronics, and because the chemical properties of the battery change over time, the electronics must be recalibrated regularly. This calibration is carried out using a battery learning cycle. Using the battery learning cycle ensures that the maximum battery capacity can always be used. During the learning cycle a defined charging cycle is carried out.
The battery learning cycle lasts between four and six hours and must not be aborted. During this period you can not work with the workstation!
Restart the workstation (switching On/Off or warm boot). <F12> Boot Menu <F2> BIOS Setup <F6> Battery
The following display briefly appears on the screen during start-up: <ESC> Diagnostic screen learning
Press function key [F6] [F6].
The learning cycle is started. When the learning cycle is ended, a corresponding message is displayed.

Charging the battery

The battery indicator displays the remaining battery charge (see the chapter "Indicators on the workstation"). When you switch on the workstation, it takes a few seconds before the battery status is displayed. You can charge the battery by connecting the workstation to the power adapter (see "Connecting the power adapter and switching on the workstation for the first time"). The battery can only be charged when the ambient temperature is between 5C and max. 35C. With the workstation switched on and off, the battery will completely recharge in approximately three to four hours. Work in the battery mode until an acoustic warning prompts you to recharge and the battery indicator begins to flash. The workstation battery should not be charged before this point. If you do not connect the power adapter within five minutes of the signals described above, your workstation automatically switches itself off.

Monitoring the battery charging level
The remaining battery charge is indicated by the battery symbol in the status indicator panel (see the chapter "Indicators on the workstation"). When you switch on the workstation, it takes a few seconds before the battery status is displayed. During mobile operation you can also use a "battery charge meter" for energy-saving monitoring under Windows. A battery icon is shown in the taskbar. When you place the mouse pointer on the battery symbol, the system displays the battery status. You can also see the battery's charging state on the battery itself.
There are five indicators next to the finger icon on the battery telling you what percentage of the battery is charged.

Press the finger icon.

The corresponding indicator lights up.
If no power adapter is connected to the workstation, the keyboard battery will be charged by the workstation battery. Even if the workstation is switched off, the keyboard battery is charging and detracts energy from the workstation battery.
Inserting and removing the battery
Only use batteries released for this workstation. Never use force when inserting or removing a battery. Make sure that no foreign objects enter the slots. Switch off the workstation. Place the workstation on a flat surface. Open the LCD display panel.

Removing the battery

Push the slide in the direction of the arrow (1) up to the stop and hold it in place. Pull the battery out of the casing in the direction of the arrow (2).

Installing the battery

Push the slide in the direction of the arrow (1) up to the stop and hold it in place. Position the battery at the edge of the casing (2) and then press it into the workstation.
Using the power-management features
The workstation uses less power when the power management features are enabled. You will then be able to work longer when using the battery before having to recharge it.
If you are connected to a network or use the integrated modem, PC LAN card, or PC modem card, we advise against enabling an energy saving mode. This could lead to an interruption of your network connection. When not using the workstation for long periods of time, first end the energy saving mode, then switch off the workstation. Never switch off the workstation with the Suspend/Resume button while the workstation is in one of the energy-saving modes. If your workstation is in an energy-saving mode:

Connecting an external PS/2 mouse
You do not need to switch off the workstation.
Simply connect the mouse to the PS/2 port on your workstation.
Connecting a serial mouse
Switch off the workstation. Connect the mouse to the parallel port on your workstation. Switch the workstation on. Run the mouse service programme under Start - Settings - Control Panel and select the General tab. Select the correct mouse type. Restart the workstation.

Using the parallel port

Switch off the workstation. Connect the data cable of the printer to the parallel port on the workstation. Plug the printer power cable into the mains outlet. First switch on the printer, then the workstation.
Establishing an infrared connection
Using the infrared software for Windows, you can communicate with another PC or printer equipped with an infrared interface.
Before you can establish an infrared connection, you must have activated the infrared software. Additional information on the infrared interface is contained in the Windows help in the Start menu under the topic "Infrared".
Configuring the infrared connection By default, the mode for the infrared port is set to FIR ("Fast IrDA Mode") in the BIOS Setup (Advanced - I/O Configuration - Serial Port B). If you want to communicate with a system running an older operating system (e.g. Windows 98/Windows NT), you can change the setting to IrDA. Please note that IrDA is the slower mode and is generally used on older computers.

Connecting USB devices

On the USB ports you can connect external devices that also have a USB port (e.g. a printer, a scanner or a modem).
USB devices are hot-pluggable. This allows cables from USB devices to be connected and disconnected with the system switched on. Additional information can be found in the documentation for the USB devices. Connect the data cable to the external device. Connect the data cable to a USB port.
Device drivers The devices you connect to the USB ports usually require no driver of their own, as the required software is already included in the operating system. However, if the USB device requires its own software, please install it from the data carrier provided with the USB device.

Docking workstation while running
If an operating system is installed on your workstation that supports "Plug & Play" and "hot docking" (e.g. Windows 2000 and Windows XP), you need not switch off the workstation for docking. The workstation may also be in an energy-saving mode.
The power adapter cable may not be connected to the DC socket (DC IN) of the workstation when you dock the workstation. The workstation must be in the battery mode.
Put your docking device into operation (see documentation for the docking devices). Please find the manual EasyGuide about the docking devices on the "Drivers & Utilities" CD.
