Temperature specifications Heat dissipation: 246 Btu/hr maximum Heat emissions: 72 watts maximum Agency approvals FCC Class-B certified to comply with FCC Rules, Part 15; VCCI Class B; UL-60950; C-UL; SMA 3548 (Australia and New Zealand); CB Report (EMEA); NOM; MPR-II (Sweden); CE Mark; CCC (for China); BSMI (for Taiwan); MIC (Korea) Power AC Adapter AC adapter: This ac-to-dc converter supplies the necessary power to the computer. The ac adapter also charges the battery pack when it is installed in the computer. Universal AC adapter (72 W): Input is 100/240V AC, 1.4/0.7A, 50/60Hz Output is 16 V dc, 4.5 Battery The battery pack is an internal power source to the computer when the ac adapter is not available. The battery pack is rechargeable and is charged using the ac adapter with the system. You can manage the battery power by using the Battery MaxiMiser and Power Management Features utility. A different Li-Ion battery pack fits into the Ultrabay Slim so that two batteries can be installed to increase battery operating time. A six or nine cell Li-Ion battery pack is shipped with the system. Li-Ion battery pack: six cell, 10.8V, 4.4Ah nine cell, 10.8V, 6.6Ah Approximate operation and charging hours are: Power off/suspend charging (*1): 3.6hr Charging during operation (*1)(*2): 3.6 to 6.0 hr Battery operation times(*2): Six cell Up to 5.5 hours Nine cell Up to 7.5 hours Nine cell plus bay battery Up to 9.5 hours Notes: (*1) Recharge time also varies. (*2) These model numbers achieved eTesting Labs, Inc.'s BatteryMark 4.0.1 or the Ziff Davis Media Inc.'s Business Winstone 2002 BatteryMarkTM Version 1.0 Battery Rundown Time of at least the times shown above. This test was performed without independent verification by VeriTest testing division of Lionbridge Technologies, Inc. ("VeriTest") nor Ziff Davis Media Inc.; neither Ziff Davis Media Inc. nor VeriTest makes any representations or warranties as to these test results. A description of the environment under which the test was performed is available at: www.ibm.com/pc/ww/thinkpad/batterylife.html. Battery life (and recharge times) will vary based on many factors including screen brightness, applications, features, power management, battery conditioning and other customer preferences. Security System Security Chip on selected models Locking device in the security slot provides physical security. The ThinkPad Embedded Security Subsystem (TCPA compliant) provides for authentication and encryption of data communications. The integrated 802.11b wireless lets you connect to a LAN without wires or cables. To connect to the Internet, the optional ThinkPad High Rate Wireless Access Point 500 and an Internet phone number are required. Password A Power-on password (POP) protects the system from unauthorized use. If a POP is set, the password prompt appears: Each time the system is turned on When the system is returned to normal operation from suspend mode A Supervisor Password provides a higher level of security than the POP. The Supervisor Password protects the system functions from being used by unauthorized users,and protects the hardware configuration from unauthorized modification. The Supervisor Password prompt appears: When the BIOS setup screen is accessed. A HDD Password (HDP) protects HDD data from unauthorized users. Once HDP is set, data on the HDD cannot be accessed without the correct HDP. Because the HDP is stored in the HDD, the data remains protected even if the HDD is removed to another system. The HDP password prompt appears: Each time the system is turned on Software Operating system The following operating systems are supported on the ThinkPad T42 systems: OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 V4.52 Refresh MCP2 Refresh: XR_4503 with FixPak XR_C003, or later, and XR_D003, or later OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 1 V4.51 MCP1: XR_4501 with FixPak XR_C003, or later, and XR_D003, or later OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 V4.52 MCP2: XR_4502 with FixPak XR_C003, or later, and XR_D003, or later PC DOS 2000 (only limited support is available) Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition with USB 1.1 support Microsoft Windows 98 Gold with USB 1.1 support Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 4.0 SP6a; no USB support Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 4.0 SP6a Japanese; no USB support Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (SPO, SP1, SP2, SP3, SP4); with USB 2.0 support Microsoft Windows XP Professional (no service pack, SP1) with USB 2.0 support Microsoft Windows XP Home (no service pack, SP1) with USB 2.0 support The following operating systems are supported on the ThinkPad T42p systems: Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (SPO, SP1, SP2, SP3, SP4); with USB 2.0 support Microsoft Windows XP Professional (no service pack, SP1) with USB 2.0 support Notes: Previous versions of these operating systems are not supported.
