LifeBook Security/
Application Panel

A unique feature of your LifeBook notebook is the
Security/Application Panel that allows you to secure your
notebook from unauthorized use. The Security/
Application Panel also allows you to launch applications
with the touch of a button when your system is on.

If the security system is activated, upon starting your
LifeBook notebook or resuming from suspend mode the
security system requires you to enter a password code
using the buttons on the Security/Application Panel.
After entering a correct password, your LifeBook
notebook resumes system operation. (Figure 2-23)

SETTING UP YOUR
LIFEBOOK SECURITY PANEL

When you receive your LifeBook notebook, the security
panel application is pre-installed without any pass-
words.

The following sections provide detailed information on
your security panel, and how to set, change or remove
passwords.

Numbered Buttons

Enter Button
After entering the button strokes, push this button to
enter the password into the notebook. (Figure 2-23)

PASSWORDS

The user and supervisor password may be set on this
LifeBook notebook. A supervisor password is typically
the same for all notebooks in a working group, office, or

company to allow for system management. Individual
notebooks in a group environment should not use a
common password. A password consists of one to five
button strokes plus the enter button. A valid stroke
consists of pushing one or up to four buttons simulta-
neously. The following are valid button strokes:

n

Pushing [4] by itself

n

Pushing [2] and [3] at the same time

n

Pushing [1], [2], and [4] at the same time

n

Pushing [1], [2], [3], and [4] at the same time

The following are valid passwords. The numbers
within braces ({ }) are button strokes using more
than one button.

n

{[2]+[3]}, [1], [enter]

n

[4], [enter]

n

{[1]+[3]}, {[2]+[3]+[4]}, [1], [4], [2], [enter]

Setting Passwords
When shipped from the factory, no passwords are set.
You have a choice of having no password or setting a
supervisor and user password. You must set the super-
visor password before the user password.
