Using the System

Setting up a hard disk drive password

You can use a hard disk drive password to protect the tablet and the hard disk drive. The
tablet cannot be started without the HDD password, and the data on the disk drive cannot
be accessed, even if it is removed and attached to a different computer.

To set up an HDD password

1. Start the system (page 7).

2. When the Motion Computing splash screen appears, tap the screen with the pen. On

the TrustedCore menu, tap Launch System Setup. If you miss the splash screen, restart

the tablet and try again.

3. In the PhoenixBIOS Set Up Utility, tap Security on the menu bar.

4. Double-tap Enter for Set Hard Disk Password.

5. Enter a password using the on-screen keyboard and tap Enter. Enter the password

again to confirm it and tap Enter.

6. Tap Exit, then select Exit Saving Changes.

To clear the password, double-tap Enter for Set Hard Disk Password. Enter the current
password, then tap Enter twice to leave the Enter New Password fields blank.
