Establishing a Setup Password

If your workstation does not have a Setup Password enabled, the ROM is not
write-protected. Updates may occur that could disrupt the operating system.
The Setup Password is disabled when the workstation leaves the factory.
Turn off the workstation once more.
Return switch 2 to its original default (OFF) position.
Reassemble and restart the workstation.
