Comments
If fingerprint authentication
fails, you can still start
the computer by entering
a password. If you have
selected "Normal", enter a
power-on password or a
supervisor password; if you
have selected "High", enter
a supervisor password.
Enable or disable password
authentication. If high
security mode is selected,
this item appears.
This option is used to erase
all fingerprint data stored
in the fingerprint reader
and reset settings to the
factory state (ex. Power-on
security, LEDs, etc.) As
a result, any power-on
security features previously
enabled will not be able
to work until they are
re-enabled in the fingerprint
software.
If you select "Active",
Security Chip is functional.
If you select "Inactive",
Security Chip is visible, but
is not functional. If you
select "Disabled", Security
Chip is hidden and is not
functional.
Enable or disable the
