Using the Asset RF ID feature
Using the Asset RF ID feature
The Asset ID RF feature, available as an option, applies Asset ID
technology, which you can think of as the next generation of bar
code technology. This option enables communication between the
ThinkPad computer and an industry-standard radio-frequency
hand-held device, called a reader hereafter in this manual. The
option provides better management, deployment, and security of your
ThinkPad computer inventory. After this option is installed in your
computer, the reader can recognize the following information:
Serial numbers:
Ÿ
System board
Ÿ
System unit
Configuration information:
Ÿ
UUID
Ÿ
MAC address
Ÿ
CPU data
Ÿ
DIMM data
Ÿ
Diskette drive data
Ÿ
IDE device data
Ÿ
PCI device data
Ÿ
ISA Plug and Play device data
Ÿ
LCD panel data
Ÿ
Docking station data
A reader can also recognize the following user information after it
has been set in your computer:
Ÿ
User name
Ÿ
Telephone number
Ÿ
Machine lease data
The Asset ID RF feature can also be used to prevent your computer
from being stolen. It is effective only when the supervisor password
is set.
If you use this option for security, you need to enable RFID security
after installing it into your computer. For more information, refer to
the online user's guide.
