Assigning The Supervisor Security Level

The security level is represented by an icon in the shape of a lock in the taskbar. The security
levels define the options accessible to the operator in the Start Menu and the taskbar. By de-
fault, the security level is set to User, restricting access to only the most basic Start Menu
items.
To allow access to all the Start Menu and taskbar options:

Tap on the radio button next to Supervisor.

Tap in the Password field, and type the Supervisor level password—the default pass-

word is 123456.

Tap on OK—you can now access all menu items in the Start Menu along with the icons

in the taskbar.

Password Control Panel applet. Refer to
