Once inside the User menu, the back button can be used to navigate back to the connect screen. The back
button can also be used to save and exit out of any of the option menus to get back to the User menu.

Change Password

This option allows the user to change the current User password. When setting up a user profile, the user
password is created. This screen allows for changing the User password.
1. Tap the CHANGE PASSWORD option from the User menu.
2. Enter the New Password and tap the Enter key.
3. You can tap the Eye button to display the password you are entering and see if there
are typos. If you entered the wrong key, you can tap on the Backspace button to erase
it.
4. Re-enter the password to confirm and tap the Enter key. You must confirm using the
same password you entered in Step 2.
5. Upon successful completion, the drive defaults to the User menu.
Note: The initial password entry screen will display the password and not show the Eye button, but the
Eye button will be shown on the Confirm Password screen. If you entered this screen accidentally or
do not wish to change the password, tap the Enter key to exit this screen and return to the
previous menu.

Auto-Lock Time

This feature is disabled by default but can be enabled by the VP80ES Admin or User. Auto-lock will
disconnect the drive once it is idle (i.e. zero activity) for the configured amount of time. The amount of idle
time required to time out the drive is configurable from 5 minutes to 12 hours.
To enable auto-lock, follow these steps:
1. Tap AUTO-LOCK TIME from the user menu.
2. Configure the desired number of minutes the drive can remain unlocked and idle.
