Chapter 2 Using Your Motion Tablet Client

Using Windows Security

Passwords protect your Tablet Client from unauthorized access. Passwords can create different levels of protection for your Tablet Client and its data.

•Operating system passwords — Secure the files on your Tablet Client from other users

•BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) passwords — Secure the software routines that test hardware at startup, start the operating system, and support the transfer of data among hardware devices

•System password — Locks access to the BIOS set up

•Boot password — Locks access to the system

•Disk Drive (DD) password — Secures your data so the DD cannot be accessed by removing it and connecting it to another Tablet Client

Setting the Windows Operating System Password

Be aware that the following advanced procedures require you to make changes in Windows BIOS. You should not perform this procedure unless you are comfortable with the following cautionary information. You can set up a Windows operating system password going to Start > Control Panel >

User Accounts > Create a new account... (Classic View)

Setting BIOS Passwords

CAUTION: We strongly recommend that you read the information in this section carefully to understand the implications of setting up a BIOS system password. If you set up a BIOS System password

and enter it incorrectly several times, you will be locked out of the system. If you become locked out, you can restart the Tablet Client and retry the password again. You can restart the Tablet Client and re-enter the password as many times as you need to. However, if you are unsuccessful in entering the password, you will not be able to access your Tablet Client.

If this happens, contact Motion Computing Technical Support at www.motioncomputing.com/support for assistance. Have your Tablet Client serial number available (on the label on the back of the system).

The level of security you want on your Tablet Client helps determine what BIOS password(s) you set.

Setting a BIOS System Password

Perform these steps to set up a password to access the PhoenixBIOSTM Set Up Utility on the Tablet Client:

NOTE: These procedures describe using the pen to enter information; you can also attach an external keyboard if you prefer.
