Password Selection

On the Password prompt screen, you will be able to create a password to protect your data on the LP50 using either
the Complex or Passphrase password modes (Figures 4.3- 4.4). Additionally, the Multi-password Admin/User options
can also be enabled on this screen. Before proceeding with Password Selection, please review Enabling Admin / User
Passwords below for a better understand of these features.
Note: Once either Complex or Passphrase mode is chosen, the mode cannot be changed unless a device is Reset.
To begin with password selection, create your password in the 'Password' field, then re-enter it in the 'Confirm
Password' fields. The password you create must meet the following criteria before the initialization process will allow
you to continue:
