Security - NEC VERSA 6000 Manual

Suspend Mode Suspend mode includes a method of operation called
Suspend/Resume that stores information in RAM and maintains RAM
contents after shutting down all local devices. You also select Save to
Disk, which saves all your open data files to a special file on the hard
disk whenever the system goes into Suspend mode. All your data is
automatically recovered from where you left off when you Resume.
Suspend Warning Tone This parameter lets you enable or disable a
warning tone when Suspend mode starts. It is best to keep this option en-
abled.
PCMCIA Power This parameter lets you turn off power to the PC Card
slots in order to conserve power. Slot power cannot be turned off if a
card is installed in the slot.
NOTE
above is using function key FnF7. Press FnF7 to toggle through the
various Power Management settings. The faucet icon on the status
bar changes to reflect the new setting.
Any selection you make by pressing FnF7 overrides the settings you made
on the Power Savings screen of Setup. The Setup power settings are not in
effect until the next power-on.

Security

Your NEC Versa 6000 supports a password for system security on several
levels. Using the Security screen, you can require that a password be entered
to use Setup
at each startup or boot
each time the system resumes from Suspend mode.
You are not prompted to enter a password until you set an initial password.
Your system is not protected until you set a password.
