Password Decode | If the user forgets the system password, there is a master password that will unlock |
| the OmniBook. The user calls Technical Support to determine this master |

1. Support will tell the user the keys to type at the password entry screen.
2. The OmniBook generates and displays an encoded master password. This is displayed under the normal password entry area. At this point, this is the only password that will unlock the OmniBook unless the user presses [ESC] to remove the encoded master from the password entry screen. Then the user's stored password can be entered.
3. The user reads the encoded master password to Support.
4. Support runs a program that decodes the encoded password, and reads the decoded password (alphanumeric) to the user.
5. The user types in the decoded password.
