9.2.4. Security Setup Menu

The Security setup menu provides information about the passwords and functions for specifying the security
settings. The passwords are case-sensitive. The mITX-SKL-H provides no factory-set passwords.
If there is already a password installed, the system asks for this first. To clear a password,
simply enter nothing and acknowledge by pressing <RETURN>. To set a password, enter it
twice and acknowledge by pressing <RETURN>.

Password length requirements are maximum 20 characters and minimum 3 characters.
