19. How to set the Timeout Lock in Admin mode
To protect against unauthorised access when the datAshur Pro is connected to a host and unattended, the datAshur Pro can
be set to automatically lock after a pre-set amount of time.
In its default state, the datAshur Pro Timeout Lock feature is turned off. The Timeout Lock feature can be set to
activate (lock) anywhere between 1 and 99 minutes. Admin Timeout Lock settings will override User settings.
To set the Timeout Lock please follow steps in the table below.
Caution:
Entering the Admin PIN to access a locked drive will clear the User PIN. For security reasons, we
highly recommend that a new User PIN be created immediately once the drive has been unlocked
using the Admin PIN. Refer to section 13 on page 11.
Instructions
1. Unlock the datAshur Pro with Admin PIN
2. Press the KEY button 3 times
(treble click)
3. Within 10 seconds begin to press button number 8
(Tuv) followed by the number 5 (jkL) button - (85)
4. Press KEY button once
5. Within 10 seconds begin to enter the length of User
Timeout in 2 digits:
00 = 0 minutes (default)
01 = 1 minute
99 = 99 minutes etc
6. Press the Key button once

Questions and answers
I have not used my datashur for several months and have forgotten my password how can I recover access
If you forget the User PIN, you can use the Admin PIN to unlock the drive and set a new User PIN. However, if you forget both the User and Admin PINs, there is no way to recover access to the data. In such a case, you must reset the datAshur PRO. The reset process deletes all data, clears the User and Admin PINs, and creates a new encryption key, reverting the device to the default User PIN of "1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4".
