Setting Up Your Lifebook Security Panel; Passwords - Fujitsu LifeBook S Series Manual

LifeBook Security/
Application Panel
A unique feature of your LifeBook notebook is
the LifeBook Security/Application Panel that
allows you to secure your notebook from
unauthorized use. The Security/Application Panel
also allows you to launch applications with the
touch of a button when your system is on. If the
security system is activated, upon starting your
notebook or resuming from suspend mode the
security system requires you to enter a password
code using the buttons on the Security/
Application Panel. After entering a correct
password, your notebook resumes system
operation. (Figure 2-20)

PASSWORDS

The user and supervisor password may be set
on this notebook. A supervisor password is
typically the same for all LifeBook notebooks in
a working group, office, or company to allow for
system management. Individual LifeBook
notebooks in a group environment should not use
a common password. A password consists of one
to five button strokes plus the enter button. A valid
stroke consists of pushing one or up to four
buttons simultaneously. The following are valid
button strokes:
• Pushing [4] by itself
• Pushing [2] and [3] at the same time
• Pushing [1], [2], and [4] at the same time
• Pushing [1], [2], [3], and [4] at the same time
The following are valid passwords. The numbers
within braces ({ }) are button strokes using more
than one button.
• {[2]+[3]}, [1], [enter]
• [4], [enter]
• {[1]+[3]}, {[2]+[3]+[4]}, [1], [4], [2], [enter]
