System and Setup Password Features
NOTICE:
The password features provide a basic level of security for the data on
your system. If your data requires more security, use additional forms of protection,
such as data encryption programs.
NOTICE:
Anyone can access the data stored on your system if you leave the
system running and unattended without having a system password assigned, or if
you leave your system unlocked so that someone can disable the password by
changing a jumper setting.
Your system is shipped to you without the system password feature enabled. If
system security is a concern, operate your system only with system password
protection.
To change or delete an existing password, you must know the password (see
"Deleting or Changing an Existing System Password" on page 61). If you
forget your password, you cannot operate your system or change settings in
the System Setup program until a trained service technician changes the
password jumper setting to disable the passwords, and erases the existing
passwords. This procedure is described in "Disabling a Forgotten Password" on
page 164.
AC Power Recovery
(Last default) Determines how the system reacts when power is restored
to the system. If the system is set to Last, the system
returns to the last power state. On turns on the system
after power is restored. When set to Off, the system
remains off after power is restored.
