SELECTOR SWITCH
The selector switch allows you to select the function of the one-touch buttons—as an Application
Launcher and a Disc Player (if available). The Disc Player is available only on select models; see
your LifeBook notebook specifications to determine the configuration of your system.
One of the unique features of your LifeBook notebook is the LifeBook Application Panel. This panel
allows you to operate the Disc Player (applies only to certain models) or launch applications with the
touch of a button. (Pseudo-off mode applies only to certain models of LifeBook notebook. Pseudo-off
is the mode when Microsoft
®
Windows
®
has been shut down but the power switch on the notebook is
still in the ON position.)
On some LifeBook notebook models, the panel also allows you to secure your notebook from
unauthorized use. Your notebook is pre-installed with software utilities that you use to operate and
configure your LifeBook Application Panel. For the Application Panel, go to Start -> Control Panel.
The LifeBook Application Panel makes your LifeBook notebook more than just another notebook
computer.
