INTERNAL MODEM

If your LifeBook is configured with an internal
modem daughter card in the Communications
port, it is a K56Flex fax/data/voice modem with
v.90 support. The voice functions of the
modem include speakerphone and answering
machine capabilities. The answering machine
capabilities require the use of third party soft-
ware not included with your notebook.

INTERNAL LAN

If your LifeBook is configured with an internal
LAN daughter card, it is a Fast Ethernet
(10/100 Base-T/Tx) network interface with an
RJ-45 connector. Your internal LAN card will
need to be configured for use in the Windows
network control panel. Please refer to your sys-
tems administrator for information on your
particular network configuration.
P O I N T
Your LifeBook E Series may be configured
with no device in the Communications
port if you specified as such in your
built-to-order configuration.
P O I N T
The internal modems on all Fujitsu note-
books from Fujitsu PC Corporation are not
qualified for use with telephone systems
outside the United States and Canada and
may not operate in other countries.

INFRARED PORT

Infrared IrDA-compatible communication is a
function that allows for wireless data transfer
between your notebook and other IrDA-com-
patible devices. Examples of IrDA-compatible
devices are another computer or a printer. When
carrying out this kind of communication, both
devices must be set so their infrared ports are
directly facing each other without obstructions.
A distance of 6" to 36" between the device ports
is ideal. Dirt or scratches on the lens of your
notebook or the other device will degrade
performance. This is especially true for Fast IrDA
applications such as a transfer to an Ethernet.
If you are using Windows 98, you can use the
Infrared Recipient program for infrared file trans-
fers. LapLink software can also be used for infrared
file transfers in Windows 95 and Windows 98. See
your online help menus for more information.
P O I N T
Windows NT 4.0 does not support the
infrared port on your LifeBook E Series.
