Smart features

ThinkSmart Cam — AI features

• People count and auto zoom/frame: Auto detect and count the people in the field of view. Then auto

frame and zoom in the people to a suitable size. This function makes it easier to monitor the dynamics of

the conference.

• Speaker tracking and whiteboard recognition: Auto track the speaker and count the whiteboard nearby

as a person. Then auto frame and zoom in the speaker and the whiteboard to a suitable size. The camera

will use Picture-in-Picture mode to replace the original video image in the sub image. This function makes

the conference more focus on the speaker and the content of whiteboard.

Notes:

• The camera will run the speaker tracking function when the speaker speaks with normal sound volume

(greater than 60dB) for over 2 seconds. The speaker should be less than 5 meters away from the camera.

• The camera will run the whiteboard recognition function when the speaker is nearby and speaks for over 2

seconds.

• The camera will zoom out to show all people in the field of view when the speaker stops speaking for over

3 seconds.

• The camera will run the auto zoom/frame function instead of the speaker tracking function when there are

more than two speakers and their distance is too close (less than 50 cm).

Chapter 6. Secure ThinkSmart Core and information

Notes:

• Connect a keyboard to ThinkSmart Core for easy configurations.

• ThinkSmart Core is referred to as “Computer” in this chapter.

UEFI BIOS passwords

You can set passwords in UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) to

strengthen the security of your computer.

Password types

You can set a power-on password, supervisor password, system management password, or hard disk

password in UEFI BIOS to prevent unauthorized access to your computer. However, you are not prompted to

enter any UEFI BIOS password when your computer resumes from sleep mode.

• Power-on password

When a power-on password is set, you are prompted to enter a valid password each time the computer is

turned on.

• Supervisor password

Setting a supervisor password deters unauthorized users from changing configuration settings. If you are

responsible for maintaining the configuration settings of several computers, you might want to set a

supervisor password.

When a supervisor password is set, you are prompted to enter a valid password each time you try to enter

the BIOS menu.

If both the power-on password and supervisor password are set, you can enter either password.

However, you must use your supervisor password to change any configuration settings.

• Hard disk password

Setting a hard disk password prevents unauthorized access to the data on the storage drive. When a hard

disk password is set, you are prompted to enter a valid password each time you try to access the storage

drive.

Note: After you set a hard disk password, your data on the storage drive is protected even if the storage

drive is removed from one computer and installed in another.

• System management password (for selected models)

You can enable the system management password to have the same authority as the supervisor

password to control security related features. To customize the authority of the system management

password through the UEFI BIOS menu:

1. Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press F1 or Fn+F1.

2. Select Security ➙ System Management Password Access Control.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

If you have set both the supervisor password and the system management password, the supervisor

password overrides the system management password.

Set, change, and remove a password

Before you start, print these instructions.

1. Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press F1 or Fn+F1.

2. Select Security.

3. Depending on the password type, select Set Supervisor Password, Set Power-On Password, Set

System Management Password, or Hard Disk Password and press Enter.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to set, change, or remove a password.

5. Press F10 or Fn+F10 to save the changes and exit.

You should record your passwords and store them in a safe place. If you forget the passwords, contact a

Lenovo-authorized service provider to have the passwords removed.

Note: If the hard disk password is forgotten, Lenovo cannot remove the password or recover data from the

storage drive.

Use BIOS security solutions

This section provides BIOS solutions to secure your computer and information.

Appendix B. Important safety information

This chapter provides important safety information for your product.

Note: ThinkSmart Core is referred to as “Computer” in this chapter.

Safety notices

This information can help you safely use your computer. Follow and retain all information included with your

computer. The information in this document does not alter the terms of your purchase agreement or the

Limited Warranty. For more information, go to https://www.lenovo.com/warranty/llw_02.

Customer safety is important. Our products are developed to be safe and effective. However, personal

computers are electronic devices. Power cords, power adapters, and other features can create potential

safety risks that can result in physical injury or property damage, especially if misused. To reduce these risks,

follow the instructions included with your product, observe all warnings on the product and in the operating

instructions, and review the information included in this document carefully. By carefully following the

information contained in this document and provided with your product, you can help protect yourself from

hazards and create a safer computer work environment. If the computer is used in a manner not specified by

the manufacturer, the protection provided by the computer may be impaired.

Note: This information includes references to power adapters and batteries. In addition, some products

(such as speakers and monitors) ship with external power adapters. If you have such a product, this

information applies to your product. In addition, computer products contain a coin-sized internal battery that

provides power to the system clock even when the computer is unplugged, so the battery safety information

applies to all computer products.

Conditions that require immediate action

Products can become damaged due to misuse or neglect. Some product damage is serious enough

that the product should not be used again until it has been inspected and, if necessary, repaired by an

authorized servicer.

As with any electronic device, pay close attention to the product when it is turned on.

On very rare occasions, you might notice an odor or see a puff of smoke or sparks vent from your

product. You might also hear sounds like popping, cracking, or hissing. These might merely mean that

an internal electronic component has failed in a safe and controlled manner. Or, they might indicate a

potential safety issue. Do not take risks or attempt to diagnose the situation yourself. Contact the

Customer Support Center for further guidance. For a list of Service and Support phone numbers, see

the following Web site:

https://smartsupport.lenovo.com/supportphonelist

Frequently inspect your computer and its components for damage, wear, or signs of danger. If you

have any question about the condition of a component, do not use the product. Contact the Customer

Support Center or the product manufacturer for instructions on how to inspect the product and have it

repaired, if necessary.

In the unlikely event that you notice any of the following conditions, or if you have any safety concerns

with your product, stop using the product and unplug it from the power source and

telecommunication lines until you can speak to the Customer Support Center for further guidance.

• Power cords, plugs, power adapters, extension cords, surge protectors, or power supplies that are

cracked, broken, or damaged.

• Signs of overheating, smoke, sparks, or fire.

• Damage to a battery (such as cracks, dents, or creases), discharge from a battery, or a buildup of foreign

substances on the battery.

• A cracking, hissing, or popping sound, or strong odor that comes from the product.

• Signs that liquid has been spilled or an object has fallen onto the computer product, the power cord, or

power adapter.

• The computer product, power cord, or power adapter has been exposed to water.

• The product has been dropped or damaged in any way.

• The product does not operate normally when you follow the operating instructions.

Note: If you notice these conditions with a product (such as an extension cord) that is not manufactured for

or by Lenovo, stop using that product until you can contact the product manufacturer for further instructions,

or until you get a suitable replacement.

Service and upgrades

Do not attempt to service a product yourself unless instructed to do so by the Customer Support Center or

your documentation. Only use a Service Provider who is approved to repair your particular product.

Note: Some computer parts can be upgraded or replaced by the customer. Upgrades typically are referred

to as options. Replacement parts approved for customer installation are referred to as Customer

Replaceable Units, or CRUs. Lenovo provides documentation with instructions when it is appropriate for

customers to install options or replace CRUs. You must closely follow all instructions when installing or

replacing parts. The Off state of a power indicator does not necessarily mean that voltage levels inside a

product are zero. Before you remove the covers from a product equipped with a power cord, always ensure

that the power is turned off and that the product is unplugged from any power source. If you have any

questions or concerns, contact the Customer Support Center.

Although there are no moving parts in your computer after the power cord has been disconnected, the

following warnings are required for your safety.

Keep fingers and other parts of your body away from hazardous, moving parts. If you suffer an injury, seek

medical care immediately.

Do not touch hot surface of hot components inside the computer. During operation, some components

become hot enough to burn the skin. Before you open the computer cover, turn off the computer, disconnect

power, and wait approximately 10 minutes for the components to cool.

After replacing a CRU, reinstall all protective covers, including the computer cover, before connecting power

and operating the computer. This action is important to help prevent unexpected electrical shock and help

ensure the containment of an unexpected fire that could happen under extremely rare conditions.

74 ThinkSmart Core Kits Deployment and User Guide for Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR)

When replacing CRUs, be cautious of sharp edges or corners that might cause injury. If you suffer an injury,

seek medical care immediately.

Power cords and power adapters

DANGER

Use only the power cords and power adapters supplied by the product manufacturer.

The power cords shall be safety approved. For Germany, it shall be H03VV-F, 3G, 0.75 mm2, or

better. For other countries, the suitable types shall be used accordingly.

Never wrap a power cord around a power adapter or other object. Doing so can stress the cord in

ways that can cause the cord to fray, crack, or crimp. This can present a safety hazard.

Always route power cords so that they will not be walked on, tripped over, or pinched by objects.

Protect power cords and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave your power cord

or power adapter near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors that are cleaned with liquid cleansers. Liquids

can cause a short circuit, particularly if the power cord or power adapter has been stressed by

misuse. Liquids also can cause gradual corrosion of power cord terminals and/or the connector

terminals on a power adapter, which can eventually result in overheating.

Ensure that all power cord connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles.

Do not use any power adapter that shows corrosion at the ac input pins or shows signs of

overheating (such as deformed plastic) at the ac input pins or anywhere on the power adapter.

Do not use any power cords where the electrical contacts on either end show signs of corrosion or

overheating or where the power cord appears to have been damaged in any way.

To prevent possible overheating, do not cover the power adapter with clothing or other objects

when the power adapter is plugged into an electrical outlet.

Static electricity prevention

Static electricity, although harmless to you, can seriously damage computer components and options.

Improper handling of static-sensitive parts can damage the part. When you unpack an option or CRU, do not

open the static-protective package containing the part until the instructions direct you to install it.

When you handle options or CRUs, or perform any work inside the computer, take the following precautions

to avoid static-electricity damage:

• Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.

• Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, memory modules, and other circuit boards by the

edges. Never touch exposed circuitry.

• Prevent others from touching components.

• When you install a static-sensitive option or CRU, touch the static-protective packaging containing the

part to a metal expansion-slot cover or other unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two

seconds. This reduces static electricity in the package and your body.

• When possible, remove the static-sensitive part from the static-protective packaging and install the part

without setting it down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective packaging on a smooth, level

surface and place the part on it.

• Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.

Cleaning and maintenance

With appropriate care and maintenance, your computer will serve you reliably. The following topics offer

information to help you keep your computer working with best performance.

Basic maintenance tips

Here are some basic points about keeping your computer functioning properly:

• Keep the computer in a clean, dry environment. Ensure that the computer rests on a flat, steady surface.

• Do not cover any of air vents. These air vents provide airflow to keep the computer from overheating.

• Keep electrical appliances such as an electric fan, radio, high-powered speakers, air conditioner, and

microwave oven away from your computer because the strong magnetic fields generated by these

appliances can damage the monitor and data on the storage drive.

• Keep food and drinks away from all parts of the computer. Food particles and spills might make the

keyboard and mouse stick and unusable.

• Do not get the power switches or other controls wet. Moisture can damage these parts and cause an

electrical hazard.

Appendix B. Important safety information 83

• Always disconnect a power cord by grasping the plug instead of the cord.

• Keep the computer software, device drivers, and operating system up-to-date.

• Empty your recycle bin on a regular basis.

• Clean out your Inbox, Sent Items, and Deleted Items folders in your e-mail application on a regular basis.

• Clean up files and free up storage drive space and memory space occasionally to prevent performance

problems.

• Keep a log book. Entries might include major software or hardware changes, device-driver updates,

intermittent problems and what you did to resolve them, and other issues you might have experienced.

The cause of a problem might be change in hardware, change in software, or any other actions that might

have taken place. A log book can help you or a Lenovo technician determine the cause of a problem.

• Back up your data on the storage drive regularly. You can restore the storage drive from a backup.

• Create a recovery medium as early as possible. You can use the recovery medium to recover your

operating system even if Windows fails to start up.

• Get the most up-to-date operating system update patches, software programs, and device drivers.

Maintenance tips about moving the computer

Before moving the computer, take the following precautions:

1. Back up your data on the storage drive.

2. Remove any media from the drives and turn off all connected devices and the computer. Then,

disconnect all power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the

computer.

3. If you saved the original shipping cartons and packing materials, use them to pack the units. If you are

using different cartons, cushion the units to avoid damage.

When you move the computer to another country or region, you must take local electrical standards into

consideration. If the local electrical outlet style is different from the type you are currently using, contact the

Lenovo Customer Support Center to purchase either an electrical plug adapter or a new power cord.

Clean your computer

CAUTION:

Remove any media from the drives and turn off all connected devices and the computer. Then,

disconnect all power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the

computer.

It is a good practice to clean your computer periodically to protect the surfaces and ensure trouble-free

operation.

Clean the computer surface: Wipe it with a lint-free cloth dampened in mild soap and water. Avoid applying

liquids directly to the surface.

Clean the keyboard: Wipe the keys one by one with a lint-free cloth dampened in mild soap and water. If

you wipe several keys at a time, the cloth might hook onto an adjacent key and possibly damage it. Avoid

spraying cleaner directly onto the keyboard. To remove any crumbs or dust from beneath the keys, you can

use a camera blower with a brush or use cool air from a hair dryer.

Clean the computer screen: Scratches, oil, dust, chemicals, and ultraviolet light can affect the performance

of your computer screen. Use a dry, soft lint-free cloth to wipe the screen gently. If you see a scratchlike

mark on your screen, it might be a stain. Wipe or dust the stain gently with a soft, dry cloth. If the stain

remains, moisten a soft, lint-free cloth with water or eyeglass cleaner, but do not apply liquids directly to your

computer screen. Ensure that the computer screen is dry before closing it.
