3. How to create a new User PIN

A new encryption key is automatically created under the following circumstances:
 After hacking detection has been triggered by 10 successive failed attempts to unlock.
 Drive has been manually reset (see heading 10).
When either of the above two scenarios occur, it will be necessary to set a new User PIN by
following the instructions below.
User PIN requirements:
 Must be between 7-15 digits in length
 Must not contain repeating numbers/letters, e.g., (3-3-3-3-3-3-3)
 Must not contain sequential numbers/letters, e.g., (1-2-3-4-5-6-7), (7-8-9-0-1-2-3-4-5-6),
(7-6-5-4-3-2-1)
Note: A user PIN can only be defined when the red LED is lit in a constant state or
changed when the green LED is blinking (unlocked). Neither User nor Admin PINs can
be created while drive is connected to a host computer.

has been created, the datAshur drive will need to be initialised and formatted.
