LifeBook P Series Notebook/Tablet PC Default Value A pre programmed value to be used if you fail to set your own. DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol A protocol used for automatically fetching communication parameters such as IP addresses. The side which assigns IP address is called DHCP server and the side that is assigned it is called DHCP client. DIMM Dual-in-line memory module. Disk A spinning platter of magnetic data storage media. If the platter is very stiff it is a hard drive, if it is highly flexible it is a floppy disk, if it is a floppy disk in a hard housing with a shutter it is commonly called a diskette. Disk Drive The hardware which spins the disk and has the heads and control circuitry for reading and writing the data on the disk. Diskette A floppy disk in a hard housing with a shutter. DMA Direct Memory Access Special circuitry for memory to memory transfers of data which do not require CPU action. DMI Desktop Management Interface A standard that provides PC management applications with a common method of locally or remotely querying and configuring PC computer systems, hardware and software components, and peripherals. DNS Domain Name System A function that controls the correspondence of IP addresses assigned to a computer with the name. Even for those computers whose IP addresses are unknown, if their names are known, it is possible to communicate with them. DOS Disk Operating System (MS-DOS is a Microsoft Disk Operating System). Driver A computer program which converts application and operating system commands to external devices into the exact form required by a specific brand and model of device in order to produce the desired results from that particular equipment. ECP Extended Capability Port. A set of standards for high speed data communication and interconnection between electronic devices. Encryption Key (Network Key) Key information used to encode data for data transfer. This device uses the same encryption key to encode and decode the data, and the identical encryption key is required between the sender and receiver. ESD Electro-Static Discharge. The sudden discharge of electricity from a static charge which has built-up slowly. Example: the shock you get from a doorknob on a dry day or the sparks you get from brushing hair on a dry day. Extended Memory All memory more than the 640KB recognized by MS-DOS as system memory. FCC Federal Communication Commission. Floppy Disk A spinning platter of magnetic data storage media which is highly flexible. GB Gigabyte. Hard drive A spinning platter of magnetic data storage media where the platter is very stiff. I/O Input/Output. Data entering and leaving your notebook/Tablet PC in electronic form. I/O Port The connector and associated control circuits for data entering and leaving your notebook/Tablet PC in electronic form. IDE Intelligent Drive Electronics. A type of control interface for a hard drive which is inside the hard drive unit. IEEE 1394 Industry standard that allows you to connect between your notebook/Tablet PC and a peripheral device such as a digital camera. Also known as "Firewire" or "iLINK". 78
