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 notebook 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 SUPERVISOR 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 automatically 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 Indicator. Your notebook does not unlock, the Security Indicator turns off after one minute. To resume normal operation, first attach a power supply to the notebook. Then you may unlock the notebook.
Uninstalling the Security Panel Application
You have two options when uninstalling the security panel application:
•Uninstall the security panel application software. This will disable all security feature.
•Uninstall the security panel application with password still active. This will not allow any changes to the password.
