The purpose of supervisor password is to be able to bypass the user password in case the user password is forgotten. The supervisor password alone will not lock the system.

You have to set both the supervisor and user passwords for the security panel to work.

1.Go to the Start menu.

2.Click on Run.

3.Type in:

C:\Program Files\Fujitsu\ Security Panel Application\ Supervisor\FJSECS.EXE,

then press [Enter]

4.Follow the on-screen instructions to set the Supervisor password.

Setting User Password

1Go to the Start menu.

2.Click on Programs.

3.Click on Security Panel Application and Set User Password.

4.Follow the on-screen instructions to set the user password.

You may change or remove the supervisor or user password by repeating the steps defined above.

OPERATING YOUR LIFEBOOK SECURITY/ APPLICATION PANEL

The security lock feature is in effect both when the system resumes from Off or Standby state. You always need to push the Suspend /Resume button to input the user pass- word. Your system will not begin the boot sequence without entering your supervisor/user password.

From Off State

1.Turn on your system.

2.When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass- word and press Enter button.

For example, if the password is 22222,

Press Button Number 2 five times and press Enter button.

The LifeBook notebook will boot to normal opera- tion.

From Standby State

1.Press your Suspend/Resume button.

2.When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass- word and press Enter button.

The notebook should resume normal operation.

Incorrect Password Entry

If an invalid supervisor or user password is entered three times in succession, the system will “beep” for about one minute. If a valid password is entered within a minute (while system beeps), the beeping will stop and the note- book will resume normal operation. If no or an invalid password is entered while the system beeps, the system will return to its previous locked state (standby or off) and the Security Indicator will go off. To reactivate the notebook after a password failure, you must press the Suspend/Resume button, then enter a correct password.

Remember the user password you specified on the Security Panel Application. If you forget the password you will not be able to use your computer. The super-visor password can override the user password.

PRECAUTIONS

Opening and Closing the Cover

Closing the cover automatically places the notebook into Standby mode. Opening the cover does not automati- cally place the notebook into normal operation. Instead, you must enter the proper security password after pushing the Suspend/Resume button.

Low Battery Operations

If your LifeBook notebook has low battery, pushing the suspend/resume button only turns on the Security Indi- cator. Your notebook does not unlock, the Security Indi- cator turns off after one minute. To resume normal operation, first attach a power supply to the notebook. Then you may unlock the notebook.
