4. Type your new password—it can contain up to eight characters—then press

TAB. The display shows * for each character in your password.

Hint

Before you type a password, check the status of Num Lock—normally, you’d want it
off so you can type letters.

5. Type the new password again (in the Verify box), then click OK.

6. Select or clear the following password options you want.

Never At Turn-On

You do not need to enter your password when you turn on the OmniBook—even
if it turned itself off after a period of inactivity.

Always At Turn-On

You must enter your password every time you turn on the OmniBook even if it
turned itself off after a period of inactivity.

At Turn-On After FN+OFF

The only time you must enter your password is when you turn on the OmniBook
after you deliberately turned it off by pressing FN+On/Off. (If you turned it off
with just On/Off, you’re not prompted for your password.)

To Undock

You must enter your password each time you undock the OmniBook from a
docking station.

To Save Setup Changes

You must enter your password every time you save changes in the System
Configuration utility or OmniBook Tools.
