Hotkey
Specify the hotkey sequence that triggers AppLock to switch between administrator
and user modes and the password required to enter Administrator mode. The default
hotkey sequence is Shift+Ctrl+A.
A 2
Move the cursor to the Hot Key text box. Enter the new hot key sequence by first press-
ing the Shift state key followed by a normal key. The hotkey selected must be a key
sequence that the application being locked does not use. The hotkey sequence is inter-
cepted by AppLock and is not passed to the application.
Input from the keyboard or Input Panel is accepted with the restriction that the normal
key must be pressed from the keyboard when switching modes. The hotkey sequence is
displayed in the Hot key text box with "Shift", "Alt", and "Ctrl" text strings representing
the shift state keys. The normal keyboard key completes the hotkey sequence. The hot-
key must be entered via the keypad. Some hotkeys cannot be entered via the Input
Panel. Also, hotkeys entered via the SIP are not guaranteed to work properly when
switching operational modes.
For example, if the 'Ctrl' key is pressed followed by 'A', "Ctrl+A" is entered in the text box. If
another key is pressed after a normal key press, the hotkey sequence is cleared and a
new hotkey sequence is started.
A normal key is required for the hotkey sequence and is unlike pressing the normal key
during a mode switch; this key can be entered from the SIP when configuring the key.
However, when the hotkey is pressed to switch modes, the normal key must be entered
from the keypad; it cannot be entered from the SIP.
Password
Move the cursor to the Password text box. The passwords entered in the Password and
Confirm Password fields must match. Passwords are case sensitive.
When the user exits the Administrator Control panel, the two passwords are compared
to verify that they match. If they do not match, a dialog box is displayed notifying the
user of the error. After the user closes the dialog box, the Security Panel is displayed and
the password can then be entered and confirmed again. If the passwords match, the
password is encrypted and saved.
Options
AppLock contains several types of delays and timeouts to accommodate different
applications. Please note that the delays specified on the
panel are delays before AppLock attempts to start the specified application(s). The tim-
eouts specified on this panel are delays after AppLock has attempted to launch the
application.
