This password option allows user to set or clear the RAID controller's password protection feature. Once the
password has been set, the user can only monitor and configure the RAID controller by providing the correct
password. The password is used to protect the internal RAID controller from unauthorized entry. The controller will
prompt for the password only when entering the main menu from the initial screen. The RAID controller will
automatically return to the initial screen when it does not receive any command in five minutes.
Note: The default password is set to 0000; This password can be modified by selecting Change Password in the RAID
System Function section.
