1.1.2 Power-On Password
A power-on password denies access to the system when the system is
powered-on.
To service a system with an active and unknown power-on password:
1. Power-off the system.
2. Reposition the password-override connector (J14) by lifting it
straight up. (See page 7.4 for the connector location.)
- If the jumper covers the first and second pins, move it so
that it covers the second and third pins.
- If the jumper covers the second and third pins, move it so
that it covers the first and second pins.
Note: Once you have moved the jumper to the new position, leave it in
that position until the next time you need to reset the
password.
To reactivate the power-on password:
1. Insert the Starter Diskette into the drive and power-on the
system.
2. Select the Set features option from the Main Menu, and follow the
instructions.
