A unique feature of your LifeBook notebook is the Secu- rity/Application Panel that allows you to secure your notebook from unauthorized use. The Security/Applica- tion Panel also allows you to launch applications with the touch of a button when your system is on.

If the security system is activated, upon starting your notebook or resuming from Standby mode the security system requires you to enter a password code using the buttons on the Security/Application Panel. After entering a correct password, your notebook resumes system operation. (Figure 2-22)

NOTE: The functions of the buttons vary, depending upon whether you have Microsoft Windows® XP Professional or Windows XP Tablet PC Edition pre- installed. Systems with Windows XP Tablet PC Edition installed have additional functions, as detailed in the tables on the foillowing page.

When you receive your LifeBook notebook, the security panel application is pre-installed without any pass- words. The following sections provide detailed informa- tion on your security panel, how to set, change or remove passwords.

Numbered Buttons

Use these buttons to enter your password.

Enter Button

After entering the button strokes, push this button to enter the password into the LifeBook notebook.

PASSWORDS

The user and supervisor password may be set on this notebook. A supervisor password is typically the same for all LifeBook notebooks in a working group, office, or company to allow for system management. Individual notebooks in a group environment should not use a common password. A password consists of one to five button strokes plus the enter button. A valid stroke consists of pushing one or up to four buttons simulta- neously. The following are valid button strokes:

■Pushing [4] by itself

■Pushing [2] and [3] at the same time

■Pushing [1], [2], and [4] at the same time

■Pushing [1], [2], [3], and [4] at the same time

The following are valid passwords. The numbers within braces ({ }) are button strokes using more than one button.

■{[2]+[3]}, [1], [enter]

■[4], [enter]

■{[1]+[3]}, {[2]+[3]+[4]}, [1], [4], [2], [enter]

Setting Passwords

When shipped from the factory, no passwords are set. You have a choice of having no password or setting a supervisor and user password. You must set the super-

visor password before the user password.

■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.
