Button Functions
This product comes with fourteen different function buttons that can be used
after entering Windows. To enable the user to access applications quickly,
some of these fourteen function buttons offer additional functions. Four of the
functions can be defined by the user.
The four directions on the joystick or directional ball (four separate functions)
together with the Enter function count as five function buttons.
Each button has a built-in primary function. However, some buttons can also
have a second function at the same time. Of the fourteen buttons, four may
have a secondary function assigned to it.
1. Primary Functions
Pre-set system functions. There is no way for you to reset these. The icon to
the side of the actual button represents its primary function.
2. Secondary Functions
Additional functions accessed by pressing the [Fn] button. For some buttons,
these are user-programmable; for others, they have already been assigned.
The four user defined button operations can be set up by opening the Tablet
and Pen Settings icon in the bottom right of the desktop and clicking on
the buttons tab. The different button press options are shown here.

How to Conserve Power
Here are three tips that can help conserve power:

TABLET PC RTAB912
16
How to Prolong the Battery Life
1. It is recommended that the battery is used until it is fully drained before
recharging it. This will prolong the useful lifetime of the battery.
2.New batteries must go through a few cycles of being completely charged
and drained before obtaining the maximum battery discharge time. This
should also be done if the battery is stored for a few months.
1. Touching either end of the battery contacts with anything metallic can result
in a short circuit and damage to the battery.
2. Do not get the battery wet, hit it, let it fall, or put it anywhere hot.
3. Charging the battery for too long can shorten its life. Do not charge it for
more than twenty-four hours at any one time.
How to Hot Swap the Battery
In order to ensure that none of system data is lost, the follow steps should be
used, when replacing the battery:
1. Disconnect the keyboard, mouse, and any other external devices.
2. Set the system on Standby.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Replace it with a fully charged battery.
5. Press the power button to restore your system to operating mode.
•The above quick-change battery hot swap should be completed within
five minutes(otherwise, data may be lost).
•Do not press the power button while in the middle of the battery hot
swap.

How to Set Up Fingerprint Recognition for Login
Go to "Control Panel" > "Switch to Classic View" > "User Accounts" >
"Choose an Account to Change" > "Create a Password".
How to Use Fingerprint Recognition to Restrict File Access
•OmniPass allows files or entire folders to be safely locked out on the
computer. This will prevent theft or unauthorized viewing of sensitive
information.
•When these files are encrypted, the information is converted into a
format that can not be read by unauthorized users. Once encrypted,
the only way to unlock or decrypt a file is by using the Master Password
or biometric device. OmniPass encrypted files have the extension .opf.
At any time, the *.opf can be used to search the hard drive for all the
encrypted files.
•It is recommended that a new folder is set up to store all the encrypted
files.
•To encrypt files or folders, browse to and identify the files or folders to
which that are required to have unauthorized access prevented and
right click on them. The contextual menu will appear. Select "OmniPass
Encrypt File(s)" from the menu and tap on it.
