When you select this icon, the following screen is displayed.

Power-On Password

Setting a power-on password helps protect information stored in your server. If a power-on password is set for your server, the Power-On status icon is shown in the locked position. If a power-on password is not set, then the Power-On status icon is shown in the unlocked position (as shown in the screen above).

When you select the Entry icon, a screen with eight empty boxes displays. Type your password in these boxes. You can use any combination of up to eight characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for your password. As you type a character, a key appears in the box.
