If you want to access the locked device temporarily, simply highlight it and press <ENTER>, the OSD will ask you for the password. After entering correct password, you are allowed to use the device. This device is automatically re-locked once you switch to another one. During Scan mode, OSD skips the security-enabled device.

Note: Only one device (a computer or a Slave) can be locked by this function at a time.

Note!: If you forget the password, the only way to permanently disable the security function is to remove all possible power sources from the RMD-1150F-8. You will need to turn off all computers and unplug the RMD switch power adapters, then restart everything.
